I stayed here while on a geology fieldtrip in 2012 and it was a wonderful campground. The campground had ample room for all of us students, clean restrooms, and a shower facility. The pine forest setting was an unexpected surprise for the AZ desert. The campground had a small general store that had camping essentials and ice cream – a great treat after hiking on the North Kaibab Trail. There are a few scenic areas and hiking trails that you can walk to from the campground, which was great for our large group. The campground wasn’t too crowded despite being a weekend in late May during an eclipse. Though the N Rim can be a bit more out of the way than the S Rim, it is truly just as beautiful and imho nicer because there are fewer crowds. The N Rim has the same views and equal amounts of hiking and is a great option for those seeking fewer crowds.
