This is our first time at LJ and excited about being in the family camp. Can you still get a camping spot if you arrive on Thursday? Also, can you bring a wagon on the shuttle?
You can still find a tent spot, but likely out in the field, so plan for sun. I’m not sure about the shuttle, but we’ve walked from Lavern with a wagon and stroller. It takes a few minutes, but not a bad walk and it’s downhill on the way home.
We didn’t camp at LJ last year, but we did bring a wagon, and were able to get on the shuttle with it. I wouldn’t recommend trying to ride the shuttle with a wagon during peak times, since the wagon will take up a good portion of the aisle. At the end of the evening, when people are all leaving at once, we had to wait a little longer for a shuttle with enough room left to pick us up, but it wasn’t a huge deal. Just be courteous and prepare to wait a bit longer if there’s a line. Hope this helps!
