A nice campground but busy as all NP campgrounds in Shenandoah are. Sites are small, description said there was room for two went but it was tight. Sloped campsites and muddy.

Nicely spaced sites in the woods. Bathrooms climate-controlled and clean. But generator hours not being enforced so can be quite annoying, especially to tent campers. Noise and air pollution in such a beautiful campground.

Loft Mountain is a great campground at SNP to explaoe the southern section of the park. Great tent campsites, easy to dispose of trash and recycling!
Super efficient check in and ease to get to campsite.

Had a great time here at Loft Mountain Campground! I did get sick and had to leave early, but the rangers and hosts were excellent! This is the 2nd time I stayed here, and I loved it both times. Very clean and well taken care of!

I very much enjoy the more individual/secluded feel of Loft Mountain sites over Big Meadow. Also, our site had bear box (ALL sites need to have one, by the way) and a great flat spot for tent (E158)

We used this as a base to visit Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello near Charlottesville, VA, one hour away. Took the 45-minute highlights tour of the mansion, then explored the grounds and many exhibits on our own. On the way back to Loft Mountain, stopped at Pippin Hill Farm and Vineyards for a late lunch. The hike to Doyle’s River Falls was nice and uncrowded, 3.3 miles round trip, turning around just after the falls, with longer hikes possible.

Site G180. Planned to camp with a 25 ft hybrid. Loop was sloped with a semi flat spot at the top. After several attempts there was no perfect spot where the steps would open and the slide wasn’t blocked by a tree. Might be worth a call to the office prior to booking…. On the bright side it looked like a great tent site.
