This is a large, very busy campground with fairly small spaces, altho most have some screening with trees and shrubs. The rangers were all friendly and helpful. There were clean restroom buildings throughout each section of the campground. Each had a large sink outside for filling dishwashing tubs. No showers nearby but they are available for $5 at the camp store which is a fairly short walk from some sections, a drive from others. Its a really nice store along with restrooms, showers, water bottle filling station. We had to buy head netting and firewood as soon as we got there because the gnats were terrible while setting up. The store closes at 5pm but everything else stays open. There are LOTS of dogs in the campground, at least one at nearly every space. We didnt see any bears while there but everyone warned us about them and the need to put everything in your locked vehicle at night. Cell coverage is very, very iffy there. Just outside the campground, on Skyline Drive, is a small park store and restaurant. You may be surprised that you have to pay $30 to enter Shenandoah Natl Park, in addition to the camping fees. But, the very nice and helpful rangers at the Skyline Drive entrance near Waynesboro let us know that for $20 we could get a senior pass which is good for a year. Theres also a military/veteran pass.

Pick you spot carefully as many are on an incline or facing "the wrong way". Campground is right on the AT and with plenty of side-hiking opportunities. Verizon cell service was spotty.

Nice sites. Good bathrooms and utility sinks. Only issue was having to walk thru another site to get to the bathrooms; wasn't an issue this time as no one was in at least one of the sites. Very good hiking trails and access to them.

Even though it’s dry camping. Loft Mountain has always been our favorite place to camp. It has been nice to see the improvements over the years. From the Camp Store to the Showers. The check in station with a person. From the old self check in. Lot of good memories over the years. Nothing is better than a stake and baked potato dinner on Loft Mountain. Better than any restaurant.
It sad to see even with the current high demand a section E closed and over grown. The tables in the sites have become in sad shape. They really need to be replaced like in other areas of the park. The place isn’t keep as pristine as it once was. The cell phone service is very poor. Almost nonexistent.

We really enjoyed our stay in this campground. Two kids, two adults, two dogs. Lots of warnings about bears, but saw none and did the various recommended things with storing our food and trash out of reach.
