Campground was great. We walked over for an evening ranger talk on flora and fauna in the canyon that was excellent. We had a lovely experience.

We really enjoyed the canyon drive and all the views. The hiking around camp and visitors center was ideal. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful Park with lots of great things to see. We stayed at the campground and enjoyed it. As with all parks, you need to print off your reservation info in advance because they have no cell or internet in the area. I always laugh when I arrive and see the poster to download the app for easier check in

Clean campgrounds, always toilet paper and hand sanitizer in vault toilets. Hosts were active but not intrusive.
Only downside: sites were kind of close together but on the plus side, loop A had many shrubs separating sites.

Note: water was available but has to be shipped up to the campground so everyone must conserve use. No showers, no running water for bathrooms.

The national park is a nice day trip, probably no more than 1 day. Would suggest planning dates that target <70°F in full sunlight. It heats up quickly.

My campsite at Black Canyon was by far the largest and most secluded I've ever had in a National Park. The pit toilets were... well pit toilets with all the flies to go along with them, but that still didn't have much of a negative impact on the overall experience. The park itself is amazing!
