Confederate Campground

On a Wednesday night there was no one else around. A little buggy during the day and really buggy at sunset (though they didn’t seem to be biting just buzzing). Big fish were really active right off shore for fishing. Easy access to campsites and nice view of lake and mountains.

After staying at another campground on Canyon Ferry and finding it not exactly what we were looking for, we went scouting, looking for a place to stay that isn’t super crowded or overused. We came upon Confederate and loved it. Great views, Great Lake access for fishing, boating, etc. There are spots in the trees to escape the wind more or you can stay right on the beach and try to position yourself so the wind isn’t terrible. Right by a creek that you can walk and it’s an easy drive to spots for fishing/bow fishing. Family loved it. Will be our go to spot from now on

Got here at around 5pm on a Saturday night and there were plenty of options which made me very happy. We ended up pulling off to the first spot on the right since there were more people farther to the left, and I like to be secluded a bit. Right next to the lake, had a picnic table and a large rock fire ring available. Was pretty windy but not as bad as I was expecting being so close to the lake. Very pretty sunset and crystal night sky. Saw plenty of satellites zipping around up there. Definitely a spot worth stopping for. 10/2/21
