Confederate campground

Confederate Campground is a free, first-come, first-served Bureau of Reclamation campground on Canyon Ferry Lake's eastern shore offering dispersed camping with vault toilets but no drinking water, with a 14-day stay limit.

The site features direct lake access suitable for fishing and boating via a rocky beach launch area, though campsites are smaller and less level than nearby alternatives, and the narrow dirt access road is best suited for smaller RVs and vans.

Expect significant mosquito activity, especially at dusk, and plan visits Monday-Thursday for better site availability and quieter conditions.
