Within Grand Mesa National Forest, Kiser Slough Reservoir provides dispersed camping along a high-elevation reservoir. The US Forest Service manages this drive-in site, where campers set up along the water's edge without designated spots or facilities.
Located just over a mile south of Kiser Creek, this reservoir camping draws visitors who prefer unstructured sites over developed campgrounds. The area lacks restrooms, water, or trash collection, requiring campers to pack out all waste. For those exploring the broader region, places to camp near Grand Mesa National Forest include both dispersed and developed options across the mesa's varied terrain.
