    Great location

    We stayed 3 nights on our first trip with our new rig. The spot was mostly level making set up easy. We had access to a fire pit as well as a grill and table. The creek flowed about 75’ from the site. The camp host was great and very friendly. The bathrooms were clean. Road noise was minimal.

    South Shore Campground — Trinidad Lake State Park

    Hot and windy!

    It was hot and I was probably a little cranky when we arrived here but state parks, in general, are charging more and more and for $38 (including the required $10 Colorado State Parks day use fee), I believe we did not get much value for our money at this campground. Access to the campground is down a long, bumpy washboard dirt road. 

    The South Shore Campground has ten non-electric sites within supposed walking distance of the lake, although we did not go to the lake. Sites 101-104 and 107-109 are wide gravel driveways and 105, 106, and 110 are pull-throughs. Although sites are decent in size, there is no physical separation between them.

    There were only vault toilets (which were clean) and no showers (I had really been hoping for a shower!). 

    Each site has a bbq grill, fire pit, and covered picnic table. However, it was so windy when we were there and because of the direction the wind was blowing, the cover was useless, we had to use our van as a wind block to cook dinner, and eat inside the van. 

    One of the rules was only 3.4% alcohol allowed. Fishing appeared to be popular here and there is a path along the dam, but it is a far distance from the campground. 

    State parks used to be our go-to option, but we are finding we are using them less and less often as the prices continue to increase.

    Do Not Book Site 11

    This will be a lengthy review but I need people to know not to book, especially site 11. 

    I’ll start by saying I don’t normally stay at developed camp sites so maybe all my issues are typical and I’m just ignorant. That being said, camp site 11 is an unfortunate little piece of land. It is unusably small (maybe 25sq ft of barely usable space)  and bordered by a mountain, the road, spot 10’s driveway, and trees. The picnic table and fire pit are centered in a way that left very little room for our 2 tents on rocky uneven ground. My tent was forced to be less than 3 feet from driveway 10. Our other tent had to be so close to the fire pit that it would have caught fire if the pit was used. It also is a waterway for all the road water and mountain side so a small river formed through our space (hitting both tents) when it rained. All this on top of the fact that every other spot around us was so plentiful (4 to 5 times our size) in space it almost made our spot seem like a cruel joke. It should cost 1/4 of the price of the rest and should be for small RV or day picnics only.

    Now the camp area as a whole is well maintained and the vaulted toilets smelled surprising decent the entire 4 day stay. The mountains are beautiful as mountains tend to be. The hiking is great and there is an awesome stream that rolls through the campground in certain areas. There is constant highway noise so be aware of that, though the spots further in or near the stream probably don’t deal with it. A lot of the sites are packed close and  you can easily hear many conversations at normal talking volumes. 

    The camp staff guy (Bill?) was friendly at first but that changed rapidly after the first night. There was a no wood fire restriction at the time of our stay despite days of rain and rain every day so we used only our propane stove the entire time. This didn’t stop Bill from calling the fire department on us the first night because he “thought we had a wood fire”. We didn’t. 

    Now this second part I’ll admit was on us but was handled poorly. I didn't know there were curfews at that campsite. The bulletin board does show quiet hour times but it’s buried in a novel of information most of which was about a bear sighting so that may have distracted my attention when I first looked at the bulletin. Quiet time is 10-6 and I know that now. So we’re hanging out around the “campfire” and I decide to walk down to the restroom, it’s about 11pm. As I’m walking back, I pass Bill and say hi. He doesn’t acknowledge me (he wouldn’t talk or look my way the rest of our stay either). When I return to the campsite the 2 women and 2 children I was with told me Bill had just ran up on them and was standing over them in a very aggressive fashion pointing his finger in their face and reprimanding them for breaking the quiet hour rules. He left after getting directly in one of the females face and saying “don’t make me come back here” in a very threatening tone. They all, just remained silent throughout the ordeal. C’mon man. We messed up and felt horrible but it was an honest mistake and had he just told us respectfully we would have shut up just the same but instead he created this uneasy tension for three days. And to put a cherry on top, other campsites broke the rule every night and morning (music, laughter, generators) and were not reprimanded. I know because everyone was so close we could see what was going on. Also, we saw Bill greet every camp site every day multiple times a day except ours. We aren’t abrasive people, we try to be generally respectful, courteous, and aware of our actions so the treatment of our camp was unjust. I will say that had he not had it out for us for one reason or another I’m sure things would have been cool. We saw Bill constantly having friendly conversations with everyone so I’m sure he’s nice to most campers.

    In short, I know there are better campsites out there. Go find them.

    South Shore Campground — Trinidad Lake State Park

    Beautiful campsite

    They have 10 tent spots. Great view of the water. Some sites have trees. All have picnic tables and fire pits. Has toilet and bear proof trash containers. Lots of sunflowers. A few different places to hike or enjoy a walk with sweetie. Dogs welcome on a leash.

    Tolby Campground — Cimarron Canyon State Park

    Disappointed

    We traveling through Northern New Mexico on our way back to Austin. The campsite was a bit of a disappointment after so many get camps in Colorado. Cimarron Canyon is still recovering from a major wildfire with large sections of the pine forest destroyed. As you travel up the canyon the damage is less so in the State Park. The highlight here is the trout stream that runs through the camp. We stayed at Tolby Campground. The park headquarters and park rangers are based here. So it’s resource for those looking to information or assistance. The campsite has a nice day use area with lots of parking excellent restrooms with for ADA. The camp host was very personable and welcomed each of the guests as they came in throughout the day. You had a mix of families and retirees at the camp enjoying the summer retreat. They firewood for sale as well. Our big grip was the lack of privacy and the size of the sites and campground itself. The sites are right next too each other and many of the huge 5th wheel RVs were running generators all day and night while others were lighting fires in the rain and smoking out the campground. It’s only $10 per night to camp here. So it may be an option for those looking to do some fishing and perhaps visiting in the week when the site isn’t completely full. The road is also very close and trucks can be heard all day long. I can’t recommend this place based on our experience, the condition of the sites,and the location.

    Incredible Views

    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. The lake is pristine and clear and you can see every trout in the lake. The fishing was fantastic and the campsites were well situated and quiet. Highly recommend.

    Raton KOA

    A friendly place to stop and recharge

    The Raton KOA is conveniently located off I-25 in Raton, NM. The campground offers of a mixture of back-in and pull through sites that are a mix of mostly live gravel and dirt. Most sites have 20/30 amp service, water, and septic hookups, although less expensive sites with fewer amenities are also available.

    The campground offers a fenced in dog park where the pups can run off leash. There is also a nice grassy walking path around the perimeter of the property with trash cans and dog waste stations positioned every 100 yards.

    The campground owner, Grant, is great to work with. He helped us get setup with the park WiFi and was super responsive to any questions we had. Don’t forget to ask him for the WiFi access code when you check in!


Guide to Weston

Trinidad Lake State Park offers a range of camping experiences in southern Colorado's mountainous terrain at 6,300 feet elevation. The park includes multiple camping areas with varying levels of amenities and access to activities. Visitors can choose from traditional tent sites, RV hookup spots, and upscale glamping accommodations depending on their preference for wilderness immersion or creature comforts.

What to do

Fishing at Trinidad Lake: Trinidad Lake State Park provides year-round fishing opportunities for anglers. "The lake is fished nearly as much as Denver. Fish are bigger and easier to catch," notes Kayla M. about Trinidad Lake State Park.

Stargazing after dark: The minimal light pollution creates exceptional night sky viewing conditions. "At night there is zero light pollution and you can see so many stars," explains a Trinidad Lake camper. This makes glamping near Weston particularly rewarding during clear nights.

Hiking Clear Creek Trail: A family-friendly option near glamping sites. "Clear creek hiking trail is a short drive away and was a beautiful and totally doable 3 mile trail for our 3 young girls," reports Tony M. about Cimarron Canyon State Park.

What campers like

Expansive campsites: Unlike more crowded destinations, some locations offer substantial personal space. "The spaces are huge! We are on an end and I think ours is about a quarter acre in size! Really!" exclaims Melody M. about NRA Whittington Center Campground.

Proximity to water: Many campers appreciate riverside locations. "Our camp is right next to the river, there is a shuttle that takes you into town, the facilities are clean and close by, and the fishing is great," notes Terry F. about Red River RV.

Wildlife encounters: The region supports diverse wildlife viewing opportunities. "Very pretty area with deer walking through the campground at dusk," mentions james P., reflecting the natural setting that makes glamping near Weston, Colorado popular among nature enthusiasts.

What you should know

Variable campsite quality: Not all sites offer equal amenities or space. "Way overpriced with no views, packed in right between the motel buildings. They don't care if you can't even open your slides, charging $65/night," warns Doog Z. about Stonewall Lodge & RV Park.

Seasonal crowding: Popular locations fill quickly during peak times. "It used to be a nice area... love the campground, but the CROWDS,,,, yuck," notes Robin T. about summer conditions at some locations.

Road conditions: Some glamping locations require appropriate vehicles. "We took the last paige last minute, and what a view! Sites have picnic tables and fire pits. Trinidad is a charming town. Just perfect!" shares Kerri G. about finding sites with good views.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Look for sites with built-in activities for children. "Beautiful view and fun stuff for the kids to do! Hiking, playground, geocaching. We will definitely be back!" recommends Ali C. about Bear Lake Campground.

Fishing opportunities for kids: Many locations stock trout regularly for family fishing. "The marsh on the east end provided plenty of bugs and worms for bait. The lake provided enough trout for a dinner," mentions Lisa C., highlighting activities beyond traditional camping.

Look for easy hiking trails: Seek out beginner-friendly trails for younger campers. "The trail itself is maybe a 2/10 for difficulty," notes one camper about local trail access, making glamping in Weston appropriate for families with varied hiking abilities.

Tips from RVers

Prepare for hookup variations: Different locations offer different levels of service. "Full hook ups, if that's what you would like. Very friendly and relaxed atmosphere," explains Alan B. about amenities.

Dump station availability: Plan ahead as not all locations have on-site facilities. "$28 + 10 for CO state 1 day pass ($80/yr), but trash, vault toilets, covered picnic tables, fire pits and BBQ grills, included 24 hr showers, laundry, garbage, full and self contained, ALL with lake views!" notes Steve M.

Road quality considerations: Some glamping areas require careful navigation. "Some sites are short, very few are level, some have a steep slope. Good shade and sun mix, mature trees, nice creek flows through the campground, it's very pretty and relaxing," advises Robert E. about campground access roads.
