This was a great site, period. Seconds away from the trailhead, friendly and helpful staff, and overall a great experience. Im coming back as soon as I can, and Im telling everyone I know to camp here as well.

This location is absolutely fantastic. Dramatic views of the canyon, wonderful historic lodge, majestic ponderosa pines, low crowd levels, and refreshingly cooler than the surrounding desert landscapes. A short and amazing hike from the campground to the lodge along the Transept Trail was the perfect start to the day. Breakfast and coffee at the lodge were amazing, and the staff were even better. I hope that I'll be back one day.

Campground was clean and very nice. Ranger who checked us in was helpful and friendly. Convenient store. I rate the overall experience as excellent but the site wouldnt let me check the box.

We stayed at the North Rim Campground at Site 18, less than a 4-minute walk from the Rim. Site is relatively flat. Be sure not to park off the asphalt or the camp host will have your head on a platter! The Transept Trail was right behind our campsite, and it's a wonderful walk to the Grand Canyon Lodge - about 1.5 miles one way. Once there, be sure to check out Bright Angel Point. Incredible views!!! Is a wide, paved trail and perfectly safe as long as you stay on the marked path. However, it is not a safe place to bring young children in my opinion. There are thousand foot drops on both sides of the trail with no guardrails except at a small bridge and at the point itself. Another wonderful excursion is the scenic drive -1.5 hours each way but worth it! Imperial Point and Cape Royal Point are spectacular. The North Rim has far fewer visitors so you won't have to fight to sit in viewing chairs or eat at the lodge. Wonderful! Not to keep beating the same drum but this isn't an amusement park. The NPS does a wonderful job marking and grooming trails, but unless you're literally on a rock outcropping/point, there will be no rails. If you are scared of heights, the Grand Canyon may not be for you!
