Sky Ute Casino Lodge

Parked there August 5th, security asked me to leave at 11:30 pm, said I could pay at hotel and move to RV park.

I've used this casino as a stop-over when traveling through Colorado several times, always staying in the casino RV campground - which means full hook-ups; level asphalt and landscaped parking spaces; access to the amenities of the casino such as laundry, pool, hair salon, and restaurants. It is safe, clean, and quiet. The surrounding area is lovely and great for exploration (Chimney Rock, Durango, Durango-Silverton train, etc.). There is a terrific little grocery store in Ignacio (Farmers Fresh Market) with a wonderful little coffee-sandwich shop (KD's Alley Cafe) in the alley behind it. The stylists in the hair salon are quite good. It's easy to pick up dinner in the casino to go and eat at the picnic table in your campground space. Wish more casinos would consider this set-up: hint, hint!

I parked near the rv park and talked to the camp host. they were fine if i parked on the lot next to the rv park. the south side is where people normally park but was told its more noisy so i could park next to the rv park. very nice hosts at the rv park. think it was $25. The rv park was full when i arrived. you have to reserve ahead or its sold out.

Called casino, they said I could park in South parking lot. It is used for overnight RVs and Semi parking (no camping)
