Nice! I’m heading there later this month. Any recommendations appreciated.


if you cant get a room inside the park at the north rim; 18 miles o/s the entrance is the Kaibab Lodge witch has cabins at a reasonable rate they have a great restaurant that serves home cooked meals.There is also a campground next to it with camp sites and rv sites for around $20.00 a night and there is a gas station right across the street. My cabin witch slep 2 people in queen beds for $90.00 a night.There are deer ;bison;and other w/l running free all over the place. Other cabins sleep up too 10 people.If you need more infor you can look it up on the internet or pm me and I will send you some pictures.

Keep Grand Canyon NP on your list to visit. It will give you an unforgettable experience. Just my opinion but the South Rim offers the more interesting views.


But it is also more crowded and almost impossable to book a room or camp there.I was there this past w/e on the Grand Canyon r/r trip.Temp was 90 plus and wall to wall people with masks required and some things closed.

You must be referring to the South Rim, which is wall-to-wall people and temps are above 90. The North Rim is almost 1 mile higher and much cooler. Temps were from the mid-'80s to 52 at night.

We made our reservations the day the website opened for the season. We wanted something at the end of October when it was cooler but could only get it the week before labor day.

All our national parks are incredibly popular right now. To get a room at the Ahwahnee hotel in Yosemite, you need to book 1 year in advance. Campsites in the parks are the same.
