Yes the main road runs right past the Luss site.  When we were there we were aware of it initially, but it kind of blends into the background.

Milarochy Bay is a nicer site in a better location but the approach road is awkward with a caravan so we have never stayed there - though loads of others do.

It depends what you want.

Millarochy Bay - One way in and out - I regularly used to tow 23 foot boats with a minibus with no probs, I don’t think the road access is a deal breaker. Much quieter, More midges, more wildlife, more relaxed. On the west highland way – and regularly used by people who are backpacking.

Luss – a village that is bonny but very, very , very touristy all the shops have tourist tat. A road that is a major route north, sorry I  stayed at the campsite but it was so long ago that I can't remeber what it was like

We went two years ago and loved Luss, but we we;re in the caravan so couldn't hear the road m=noise at night, I have to say I didn't notice it after a while and its a faint hum,

We personally loved the site as the dogs loved swimming in the loch and we liked the walk into the village,

Millarochy bay is also lovely as we had a nose round, you can change your bookings on the C & CC, your deposit should just be transferred over if you ring them, You have given them plenty of notice.

We would definitely go back to Luss if we we're taking the van, but Millarochy bay if we took the tent (due to the road to Millarochy as we have a big caravan)

I live close to Loch Lomond and regularily use the A82.

However, when we are meeting up with friends (campers) coming north, we stay and overnight with them at the Luss site.

Yes the road noise is annoying if you are used to not hearing traffic at all.

Yes, even if you are used to traffic noise, then the Fish Lorries coming down the A82 from 5 in the morning onwards, can be annoying.

However, the noises you can get on any campsite necessitate us carrying a packet of Boots Wax Earplugs and these are always handy at bed time and through the night.

We spend more time asleep in the van than on any other activity and a good night's sleep is imperitive to a good camping trip.

Personally I reckon that a packet of Boots Earplugs would be considerably cheaper than driving halfway round the countryside looking for a queiter site. One packet will do 2 people for a two week camping holiday.
