Its been a minute and i was wondering if the lots have parking to accommodate guests with travel trailers. Ive got a lapse in camping spots and will likley have to park a day in the canyon. Legit or no?

There's definitely space in most of the lots. How big? I've seen plenty of RVs parked in the loop road, not sure I've seen a trailer though.

The trailer plus my truck is 37ft which is 2 normal parking spaces

I don't know that I've ever seen an RV in the loop road, but I have seen them at the visitor center. Regardless, there's only a few of the parking areas that would actually fit an RV. It'd be best to probably call and the staff can let you know the official recommendation. Also, you could probably leave the trailer at the parking area at the visitor center and then just drive the truck through the loop.

Sounds like you are asking about overnight parking / camping, while the responses seem to be about day use parking?

Asking for day use in the loop for sure

Many spots have bus/RV parking spots that will fit your setup, but you would have to be there early.  Regular cars take those spots, many times before the smaller spots are even all full.
If you find one, plan on not moving until you are done for the day.
As mentioned above, asking to leave your trailer in a far corner of the Visitor Center lot and just driving the truck may be preferable.

Thinking about the type of spaces available... First Pullout, Willow Springs, and Pine Creek should be able to accommodate.  Get there early though as Karl explained.

If you’re at the campground, might be worth asking the camp host if you can leave the trailer In the overflow for a day. Also might e able to leave it at the visitor center for a day.

Calico/Red Springs parking lot would work too but as everybody has said, the key is getting there early. 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
