Confederate Campground

Confederate Campground is a free, dispersed Bureau of Reclamation campground on Canyon Ferry Lake's eastern shore offering direct water access for fishing and boating via a rocky beach launch area.

Basic amenities include vault toilets and fire rings, with a 14-day stay limit and no water or fees; the narrow dirt access road accommodates most vehicles but smaller campsites suit RVs and vans better than large rigs.

Be prepared for significant mosquitoes, especially at dusk, and note that the location can be windy and crowded on weekends, though quieter mid-week.
