Loft Mountain Campground

We enjoy camping weekdays as the park is a little less crowded. We have stayed at Loft Mountain Campgrounds but are looking into options for staying further north so see more of that end of the park. Generally we seem to visit the park twice a year, staying 4-6 nights each time. Sunsets at the overlooks are a must see.
Gary, our fur child, thoroughly enjoyed his trout and carrots for canine lunch at Big Meadow Lodge. All of our dogs have gone there through the years. Weather permitting, this outdoor seating is great for lunches.
Blackberry ice cream is a must have...until the entire mountain is out of it. Missed it at lunch on our blackberry cobbler. Loft Mountain Wayside milkshakes are great, but they were out of both blackberry. Had only strawberry.
My husband missed seeing any of your bears but we saw so many deer and squirrels.

Great campground, check out Doyles River Falls, it's right next to it.

The place is nice my suggestion is the sites on loop A (left side( and B (right side) are really close backing into each other really cut down any privacy Othere than that it seemed nice run really well maintenance on top of things I'd return for sure
Thank you

Wish we had a campground in Shenandoah that had power.. I c.ould live without water, but I need electricity.

Stayed only 1 night on a Thursday. Registration was efficient and the attendant was helpful. Campsites and restrooms were clean. Generators in our camp area was not allowed; was happy about that. Except for an occasional dog barking, the campground was quiet. Saw several deer grazing through the campsites.

Great camping experience, as always. I am very disturbed to find out the NPS is considering privatizing the Shenandoah National Park management. I'm absolutely opposed to this. Corporate greed will guide every management decision. We cant alow this to happen.

Campground was well kept, all sites were clearly marked and personnel was friendly :)

Check in was fast and easy everyone was very helpful and friendly. Site was lovely

We did not have a reservation, the gal at the gate gave us two options. We looked at those options and did not like them. So we drove until we found Wi-Fi connection and we booked the campsite when it was our turn to talk to the gal at the gate, she shut the window on us!! Grant it was 6 o’clock but, Who shut a window on someone who is right there!!! So we just moved forward and pulled into our campsite. It was a very cold snowy 26° night. My husband and I were playing Yahtzee inside our small camper. We heard a knock on the door. It was the host. She was very rude and let us know we needed to register, we let her know what happened that we had the door slammed in our face literally, she said fine. I don’t need to see your registration, but I want your camper moved as two wheels are on the grass!!! Tell me that no one has ever parked on the grass at that campsite or any other site!! I believe that the tors put their tents on the grass. It was very, very rude of that compost to knock on our door and make us move our camper and cold sleepy weather because we had two wheels that were touching the grass… Would never ever recommend off mountain to anyone after that experience.

This campsite has 3 apple trees on it, so lots of deer visits. The firepit has a grate, unfortunately it is still about 20” above the fire at its lowest setting-too high to use for cooking on. Plenty of room for our 17’ long trailer with two tents and three vehicles. Solar is limited due to trees. Nice and level pull through site near bathroom and water spigot-heat and hot water in the bathroom!
