Jacob Lake Campground was fine, but the policies of Recreation Resource Management of America (concessionaire) are not! We made our reservations back in March for camping in June. Between the time we made our reservations and our stay, the policy changed to include a charge of $15 per day for any vehicle over a single vehicle per site (including your camper!). So I paid $112 per site (2 sites) for 4 nights of dry camping, and they wanted to charge me $120 extra when we got there because we had a total of 2 vehicles per site. That means that our 24 foot van, plus my Jeep, with two people, cost $45 per night for a campground with no amenity except a vault toilet. My kids' site; a single tent (two people) each with their own car, also cost $45 per night. Ridiculous. The camp hosts trawl around the campground asking if you've paid for your "extra" vehicles. Apparently, if you park on the site during the day, no problem. Host even recounted a story where a site had a camper plus 5 cars, but since they left before nighttime, they didn't get charged. But if the car stays overnight, they want to charge you the $15. They accept payment in cash or check only. Frankly, it feels like a scam. There is no receipt provided, there is no way to pay on recreation.gov. Only hand over the cash to the host. There is no way to know what they'll charge in advance, or how much they'll extort. The whole experience was gross, and will definitely keep us from returning. So disappointing. Look for dispersed camping sites nearby instead.

Very clean, fresh and family friendly or solo atmosphere. The Camp host and maintenance personnel, Melissa and Jon, were very accommodating and professional. The hiking trails are breathtaking! This parks proximity to tourist attractions such as Lees Landing and the Grand Canyon are also a plus in my book. The quiet nights and star gazing make for a peaceful wind down in the evenings as well. We will definitely be back!

Nice campground for exploring the area around the North Rim. Campground was clean and well managed. We would definitely stay again.

Camp hosts were all very helpful and kept the campground clean and made sure rules were followed. Will definitely be going back here.

Nice campsite only five mins to some showers, bathrooms were nice and clean. Bring your own quarters though because you will NOT fine change in the immediate area. We had to drive 30 miles to Fredonia to get $5 in quarters, one of the employees at the inn nearby said 'quarters are like liquid gold around here'.

Tent campers rejoice!! The cleanest pit toilets ever! I even stood barefoot on the floor to change my clothes!!Everything was very clean tidy and quiet! Each site was raked and tidied up after guests. Pleasant hosts. We will be back!!
