Perfect place to camp and hike, so many great trails and overlooks. The campsites are a bit tight even for our 24 ft B+ van.

Great high campground with plenty of spots and amenities closer to the south entrance to the park. Rangers were friendly and helpful and the grounds were great for those camping with pets. Campsites offered plenty of space and overall it was pretty quiet. Also, it is really close to a lot of hiking trailheads.

Excellent site at a wonderful, fairly quiet campground. Highly recommended. Be sure to get there early if you plan to purchase firewood. The store closes very early and they donβt have any wood at the check-in desk.

This is a nice site. Could accommodate a few small tents (2-4 person). It does get sun most of the day.

Very good camping experience for me and my family overall. Check-in was easy, the bathroom was clean, and the fire pit and picnic table at our site were in good condition. We also visited the camp store to pick up a few things, it was well-organized and had all the basic essentials. Overall, it was a great weekend at Loft Mountain.
Only one feedback; it would be great if campground officials driving around could be a bit more considerate about speed, especially on misty days when families with kids are around.

Camosite was level without major rock or root issues. Bathroom seemed to have a clogged sink

We really liked bare fence mountain trail. It gets a little hairy there towards the end (the rock scramble part.). loved the little ecosystem up there in the crags. Cool sedums and lots of native insect life. Showers and store were good (wants $5 in quarters for shower. Machine there). All in all a great experience: quiet at night, bathrooms clean. You can run through a lot of firewood. Itβs 10 bucks a pop there so you may want to bring some.
