Campground was good - we had electric hook up which was nice. Pit toilets, and they ask that we limit our water use. Lots of short hikes from overlooks and the campground. Pictures dont capture how beautiful it is.

Small sites, vault toilets. Value here is in the location.

Nice pull through site with electric. Close enough to the pit toilets that we got some aromas when the wind was right. Note that the fire ring and picnic table are on the left side of the site.

Definitely do all the stops on the scenic drive, all of them are so different and provide many different perspectives of the canyon.

This was the best value site we stayed on. It was peaceful & we thoroughly enjoyed all the trails through the park. We even saw a baby bear!

The campground overall is very nice. Excellent separation between sites! No serious issues.

We had a problem with Recreation.gov! We reserved a site for one night 10/8, right up until everything became first come (the website wouldn't lets us reserve the actual last night, that was 10/9 this year. But then a card appeared on our post for that last night! I don't know how, but someone did what we couldn't! This kerfuffle should not be possible in a digital world!! Local staff got things workable, but they tried to put the new folks in a non-pull through site. This could have been a really mess.

Recreation.gov should get this sorted. It happens every year at many sites!

I spent about 5 hours riding the rim, stopping at each overlook and taking time to soak in the view. It was a lovely time on a cool October day. I stayed two nights in the campground which as very clean and quiet after the day trippers got off the rim road. All in all, a great experience and recommended.

Don't stay on the south side of the A loop in the campground. You will hear the folks at the ranger employee housing quarters going on till 2-4 am.

Clean campground. Friendly hosts. Beautiful view of the rocks. Must go through the scenic loop.

One of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. The ranger was really informative and friendly and the camping sites are spacious and private.

It was so nice to have close proximity to the national park's main developed area, and maybe even nicer to have electricity at the campsite for a relatively low price. I like that my site had a fairly private wooded area around the picnic table and fire pit. I liked to have a pull-through site but did not like that, given the one-way road, my trailer door was on the "wrong side."

The park was quiet the first night but had some kind of noisy campers on the Friday of Memorial Day weekend. It wasn't a tragedy since I had a good source of white noise. I can imagine that on a typical weekend the place is very peaceful.

There is easy access to some of the park's trails from one of the campground loops. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to fully utilize them.

I will return if I am back at Black Canyon, which itself is an amazing thing.
