If you go past the loon turn off torts Wentworth there are several developed camp grounds and many undeveloped off the paved road as well
We go to airport flats every year and there’s yellow jacket and wench creek as well and just before airport flats there’s a road that has good sites as well same with just before Wentworth turns to a dirt road sorry I no longer have the mile marker # or the gps for these locations
And there are many cap grounds around union valley lake you can try

The past few years, as soon as the road was plowed there was an onslaught of rv's/trailers/campers that flooded the campground at loon.
There is an iron ranger at the entrance to the campground. I don't tend to stay at campgrounds and have no specific knowledge of fees for that one, but it should be available online.

This shows no new action pending.
So unless it is in place now, it might not be. I do know they are looking at paid parking at Stumpy Meadows and it is not on here either.
