Loop Campground (UT)

Some sites are only tent sites, so if you have a vehicle make sure you have a site that will accommodate it. Good private sites, easy to get to trailhead.

It's really an interesting drive into this campground, the road goes through two narrow slot canyons. There's a year round creek. The sign says danger of flash flooding. The weather was warm and breezy. No amenities other than two sets of pit toilets. You definitely have to pack out your trash, and bring in all the water you need. Lots of tall trees, very shady. Tall steep hills all around the camp. Good for rock climbing. No cell signal from about 5 mi down the road. Slow bumpy dusty rough gravel road. I would not bring a big trailer or motorhome, you will probably will have trouble swinging it around the two hairpin switchbacks in the road. Some of the sites have driveways long enough for a trailer. We stayed in site #1. It is for sure the most remote site, and we felt very private back there. It has a long, long, long driveway that is more like its own access road. Once you get up to the site, there is a decent amount of parking, enough for two cars easily. You could put a smaller size trailer up there, but you can't turnaround. We had a small 16' trailer and chose to back up the driveway/access road. I'm pretty good at backing up the trailer but the driveway is very narrow and curves. I'm not a hiker, but lots of people come up there for day use because there is a trail head and a popular hike that goes to a nice lake. I had my two labs, they are good about just hanging out in camp. Down in the main camping area the sites are all right next to each other, so if I had been down there it would have been necessary to keep the dogs on a rope, otherwise they would have wandered into other campsites. Our site had a large picnic table and a fire-ring. Plenty of fallen wood to gather, no need to bring any.
