Loft Mountain Campground

The staff in registration area were very nice. It is so unfortunate that NP funds have been cut and professional positions cut. There was limited ranger presence and restrooms were not cleaned for the weekend. These budget cuts not only effect park employees but local businesses in the surrounding communities. We all need to support the NP system to protect our treasured NPs

Very hot. I wish there was electric hookup and I would visit more often in the summer.

Very quite

Nice sites, quiet, Apalachian trail right there leading to some good trails including the falls.

Loft Mountain Campground is always a great experience for me. The rangers are helpful and will draw you a map to find your campground when you get there. There is also weather posted at the ranger station so you can be prepared. I would recommend signing up for the SNP text alerts in case there is bad weather while you are there. Our campsite was clean and the bathrooms are easy to get to and well maintained. There are lots of gorgeous trails nearby and a well run camp store where you can get emergency supplies.

Nice campground great trails quiet during the week. We were there in July for 4 days in rv. Only complaint was generator rules. It got pretty hot 1 of the days and our dogs got pretty hot. Running fans was not enough otherwise we had a great time.

Loved the site, the curved parking area made it super easy to pull in and out, and I appreciated the provided bear proof food locker. This site is close to the bathrooms, but a little far from the front of the campground and the Camp-store/showers.

Coin operated showers were expensive and impractical to insert 20 quarters into the payment slot while in the shower stall. The showers were also so small with no curtain, so dry clothes and towel got wet when showering.

Cam in 1 day late and Camped in the handicap site. THe grass was not cut for a very long time. Grass in our site was apx 12 inches tall. Weather was HOT which when combined with the tall grass created a huge issue with nats. Any movement in the grass resulted in massive swarms of nats. Fireplace sides were so tall there was minimal visual of fire. Price of wood was $1 per board which was very expensive and made it difficult to have a decent evening fire. $5 for a 10-minute shower was also very expensive. One shower stall in the mens facility was out of order however when walking in it was easy to miss the sign. When door was closed sign was outside and NOT by the coin machine. I put $5 into the machine and never got the shower. UGH. Very frustrating...

The site that I had booked did not have adequate space for my large tent. A small tent would probably have been fine, but this should have been explained at the time of booking. I ended up moving to a first come first serve site, which subsequently flooded during heavy rain, submerging my tent in about 2 inches of standing water.

If I were to return to Shanandoah, I would probably consider one of the other campgrounds.
