Azalea Glen RV Park
Azalea Glen is primarily an RV park, but its lane of grassy RV sites is open to tent-camping as well. The park's pleasant camping lane has a forest on one side and a pond with lotus blossoms on the other. Each site has full hookups, so tent campers have access to both water and electricity. There is also a bathhouse, a coin laundry, a horseshoe court and a small playground on the property. Azalea Glen RV Park sits just outside Patrick's Point State Park.

Eureka KOA
Eureka KOA lies 20 miles south of Trinidad on U.S. 101 in the town of Eureka. Like most of the KOA facilities, it offers a mix of sites for tents and RVs, as well as rental cabins and cottages. The tent pitch consists of a long camping lane lining the outer periphery of the property. The KOA camping facilities include showers, coin laundry, and a camp store with firewood and LP gas sales. The other amenities consist of a playground, swimming pool, hot tub, recreation room, dog-walking area, horseshoe courts, snack bar, bike rentals and free Wi-Fi access. Although the Eureka KOA is the area campground that is farthest from Trinidad, it is still a reasonable drive and offers convenient access to fishing and boating in Eureka Bay, Humboldt Bay and the Pacific Ocean.
