Quick Overview

Creede has several RV dump stations in one of Colorado's most charming and remote mountain mining towns, with some free options for travelers exploring the upper Rio Grande valley in the San Juan Mountains. This tiny Mineral County community sits at about 8,800 feet elevation along CO-149 where Willow Creek meets the Rio Grande, surrounded by dramatic volcanic cliffs and peaks that once made it one of the richest silver mining camps in Colorado. The sani-dump access here serves the adventurous RVers and anglers who make the trek into this mountain valley for world-class trout fishing on the Rio Grande, the acclaimed Creede Repertory Theatre summer season, and access to the Silver Thread Scenic Byway. Creede's isolation means sanitary dump station facilities are critical -- the next services in any direction are a long mountain drive away.
