"The site is about two hours west of Trinidad Colorado in the Spanish Peaks Area along scenic highway 12."
"This area has everything Colorado at 11,500’. There is a waterfall, a lake, some marsh land and plenty of views! Up on the adjacent mountainside are a few old mining locations and some caves."
"This place has something for everyone: camping, hiking, fishing, boating on the lake, playground for kids, and close to Trinidad for supplies and dining."
"Up on the top of a hill next to the lake, so not much access to the water. One year, when the water was low, it took about 15 min both ways up/down pretty rough and rugged trails."
"Nice to be that close to the lake. One thing to keep in mind, from the campsites there isn’t great access to the lake, you’ll need to come in From the East entrance to the park for lake access."
"As is typical of Colorado State Parks, Trinidad Lake is clean, well thought out, and beautiful."
$45 - $50 / night
"Fair pricing, play area for kids(needs supervision), liqueur store in walking distance, laundry is walking distance. And in a great town with nice people."
"Deer walking thru the campground at dusk was a neat site."
"This lake is in an absolutely beautiful part of the country. The campsites are all situated around the lake and each has a great lake view. Fishing is good as well."
"When you first drive in there are secluded tent spots, then small cabins. There are many spots all around the lake, with large tenter sites on the opposite bank of the lake."

"The area surrounding Purgatory is GORGEOUS. It’s straight out of a movie or picture book."
"No access to electric or water. Road to camp is rough. Beautiful scenery. Short drive to Chucara and Stonewall."
"Drive past the wildlife area sign that says no camping. That sign is only for the entranced area. On down the road you will see the entrance and pay station for the campgrounds. Gorgeous!"

"This is a small RV Park at Raton Pass almost to the Colorado border. Situated at the top of a hill, the views here are outstanding."
"It used to be our favorite stop on our way to Colorado. It is still a beautiful location, but our most recent experience was not up to what it has been in the past."

"Beautiful place in Southern Colorado. It is a busy (small), very pretty campground Southern CO (not all spots are shaded). Great Hosts with clean vault toilets. "
"The views driving up from the main road are absolutely stunning. I was here when the leaves were changing in the fall and I’m not sure there are many places in Colorado more beautiful than up here."
GuideGood campground with spaces spots and many by the river. Very close to Red River. Not much to do at the campground but relax! A bit noisy as you are right next to the road.
ScoutFound easily and down road from Great Sand Dunes NP & Medano Creek. BLM (dispersed) spot off Mt Blanca Rd, was quiet and peaceful. Was surprised how many other campers were enjoying nearby sites. Plenty of room to enjoy site without feeling crowded. A nice site, enjoyed evening fire. Some sites have rock fire rings, so was pleased. Nearness to Great Sand Dunes was a huge plus. Would recommend this dispersed site. Alamosa nearby for supples & food, etc.
ScoutThe map location and coordinates are not correct. I was unable to find the spot. Likely supposed to be north of listed location. See dispersed sites just north.
GuideGood spot to camp for the night.
GuideLittle bumpy coming in but not bad. Really pretty getting here. Site is flat ish and fine for what it is.
GuideLove coming here in May b4 things get busy! Beautiful views & loved the wildlife! Drove to mine & enjoyed the history!
ScoutWe were looking forward to boondocking at Maxwell National Wildlife Refuge today, in early May - and we will try again in Oct when we come back this way. But north eastern and north central New Mexico have had days of heavy rain and flooding alerts. Today was dry until shortly after we arrived to check out the camping area. We deemed the ground too damp, figuring we would get stuck sinking into the soft earth if we drove onto the grass. Another rainstorm was coming in fast. The 2-3 miles of dirt washboard road was not a problem when dry, but would be a problem after rain. We were lucky to leave just as the rain started. We encourage folks to camp here. It's not a bad place! But don't bring a heavy big rig if it's been raining. We went on to a Harvest Host location (Calfax Bar and Diner, about 12 miles west, very nice people), but the ground was too soft there too. We ended up in the Raton, NM KOA. It's not free, but it's a fine place.
GuideLooking forward to visiting the Cuchara area next weekend.
TravelerIt’s offseason so it was nice and quiet. Beautiful spot next to a stream and within short walk of maverick trail. Fire ban right now.
