Clean beautiful campground. Restrooms were clean too. However, no hooks to hang clothes or shelves for toilet bag. Electrical outlets were not working. Nice stay at campground.

Beautiful campground - woke up to a bunch of elk grazing and sunbathing right next to the campsite. Typical national park bathrooms that are not great and don't seem particularly clean, but that was as expected. We didn't check out the showers, so I have no comment on them.

Its a nice quiet place to park in the Grand Canyon. Sites arent level, but thats not a big deal. No hookups, but you know youre dry camping when you go in. Overall its a wonderful place to stay a night or two while you enjoy the canyon! The nights were cool in August so you can manage without ac.

The campground itself is very nice and there is one hike across the highway that you can walk to. Otherwise, you have to drive to get to the trails in and around Sedona.

Cheap campground. Good location for visiting the Grand Canyon. Restrooms were dirty. Showers were okay.

Great campground in the park. Very well kept. Shuttle service is very convenient and makes getting around the park very easy. Highly recommend.

Great stay once again. Quiet campsite on Aspen Loop, friendly NPS staff and volunteers. Thanks to everyone for keeping things looking so nice.

one of our favorite National Park campgrounds we’ve stayed at! i was able to make a last minute, day of, reservation on recreation.gov and i’m so glad we did! the campground is beneath the beautiful ponderosa pines, with flushing toilets/sinks/soap, picnic tables, fire pits, and even a laundromat (washers are $2.50 for standard, or $5.50 for large—dryers are $1.25 for 30 mins) + hot showers ($2.50 in quarters for 5 minutes)!! it’s a huge campground and all the sites are spaced out nicely!! despite there being quite a few people, it was so quiet. i walked our dog around and saw lots of fresh elk poop and all sorts of animal footprints! another great bonus: you’re in 0.4 mile walking distance (from site 009 Aspen Loop) to the Market Place where they have a grocery store, post office and bank! we are so thankful we got to spend a night here! (it’s only $9.00 per night if you have the access pass!)

Camping trs bien avec un accueil sympathique et chaleureux. Information importante : les douches sont payantes (2,5$ les 5min). Dommage qu'elles soient un peu vieillottes mais dans l'ensemble elle sont relativement propres

Fairly tight campsites with limited privacy. Well located to most public Grand Canyon village attractions.
@JeffreyH206902 · Camped on Mar 3, 2022 at Campsite #9
Campground is nice and quiet with good restrooms. The showers and laundry are nearby. And of course you are at the Grand Canyon.

Clean, beautiful, well planned out campground.

Beautiful area. Our site (#9) was pretty good. There were only 2 small tent sites right next to each other. Those were pretty level though, especially to some of the other sites I saw. Facilities were clean. Sites are very close together so you get the usual campground noise (doors closing, car alarms going off, dogs barking, etc.). I didn't realize the loop we were in allowed generators and I did not really like hearing a generator going each morning and night. Last thing to consider- the last shower is at 3:45. Seems very weird that after a long day of hiking, we couldn't have a shower. Overall, it was good. I'd go back but try to find a site in the generator-free loop.

Great campsite. Comfortable. Probably good for 2-3 tents, but we slept in the car. Fits 2 cars. Bathroom was a bit far, and I didn't see where the water was.

We went camping for the first time as a family. October and the elk were in mating season - really cool to hear them at night and see them wander through the campground. Bathrooms nice and clean. Didn't use showers. Grocery store just up the street. Firewood was pricey in the area. Ravens will rip apart anything and everything so make sure you put away any food in car or hard sided cooler. scaring them off only stops the problem for a moment. They are relentless. Overall great place and quiet.
@BrianH127 · Camped on Aug 29, 2021 at Campsite #9
Check in experience was fast and problem free. Campsite was clean. Facilities were clean and sufficient for the amount of campsites.

Great location just a short drive outside south entrance of Grand Canyon and well-managed campground in the pine forest. Note that some sites have concrete tables, while others have older wooden tables that have peeling paint and splinters.

Great campground, very well kept, the facilities were always clean and well-stocked.
It's also nice that it is close to all the activities, stores, etc.
Would definitely stay there again, just have to make sure to book early!

Quiet campground and great trails nearby to bike or walk to connector trails or shuttle stops.

Campsite was clean and staff attentive. Pines create nice shade and they whisper in wind, serene. Obviously, the attraction is canyon. Grocery store is a 5 minute walk. Some of the other campers were a little loud at night but they were all friendly at least.
