Description

Did you know that “carpios” is Latin for “really awesome campground”? Okay, so we might be a bit off on the translation, but you get the idea. Carpios Ridge is the bigger sibling at Trinidad Lake State Park, with a bunch of campsites begging to be occupied. The water won’t be right outside your front door (or tent flap) but those views! The campground hangs out on a tall ridge 150 feet above the lake, gifting you and your camping companions with unbeatable water vistas. Hello, gorgeous!

I've camped here and it was fine. No showers and it was almost $40 because you have to book online to reserve a campsite

Beautiful views! Lots of spaces with tent pads but not all. Nice firepit with grill but placed closer to parking than tent pad. This place seems like it gets a lot of RV traffic.

Very beautiful view overlooking the lake.
