Rocky Ridge Camground — Eleven Mile State Park

About

State Park

Rocky Ridge campground offers the only electrical sites in the park nestled among rocky outcrops, along with non-electric sites with trees. Loops A, B and D offer 52 electrical hookups (30 amps, no trees). Loops C and E have some shade/trees. B-E Loops are closed in the off season. Eleven Mile Canyon Recreation Area is located below the dam of the Eleven Mile Reservoir near Lake George in the southeast corner of South Park. The narrow, dirt road traversing the canyon used to be the old Colorado Midland Railroad bed before the dam and reservoir were constructed. Unlike the reservoir area, which has an open basin and rangeland type topography, the canyon itself is forested, lush, and rocky. Eleven Mile Canyon cuts through the plain holding the South Platte River in its rocky bottom. As the river is unleashed from the dam above, its twists and crashes against huge boulders lining the canyon floor. A canopy of large trees provides a screen of shade that floats across the canyon with the moving sun. Eleven Mile Canyon is an unexpected paradise. Eleven Mile Canyon is generally accessible year round; however, service are reduced during the winter months. https://cpw.state.co.us/placestogo/parks/ElevenMile/Documents/11Mile-RockyRidge.pdf
