Best RV Parks & Resorts near Grand Canyon National Park

707 Reviews

Trailer Village RV Park within Grand Canyon National Park provides full hookup sites with 50-amp service, level gravel pads, and pull-through access for vehicles up to 50 feet. The park operates year-round with 123 sites arranged in loops on paved roads. "Sites are close together and are relatively pricy, but with such close proximity to Mather Point it is to be expected," noted one visitor who appreciated the convenient location. Grand Canyon Camper Village, located just outside the park in Tusayan, offers 50-amp electric, water, and sewer hookups on primarily dirt surfaces. Kaibab Camper Village near Jacob Lake operates seasonally from May through October with both 30-amp electric and water connections for RVs.

Advance reservations are essential during peak seasons, especially summer months when temperatures are moderate at higher elevations. Most RV parks near the South Rim remain accessible throughout winter, though occasional snow may affect road conditions. Cellular coverage varies significantly by location and carrier, with stronger signals typically available in developed areas within the national park. Dump stations can be found at Trailer Village and at several locations outside park boundaries. Pet policies generally permit leashed animals in campgrounds, though restrictions apply on many canyon trails. Campers requiring propane should stock up before arrival, as one reviewer noted: "Be sure to stock up on propane before getting to the site! There was no propane available in the area and had to drive an hour down to Williams for a refill."

    Trailer Village RV Park — Grand Canyon National Park

    Great for larger RV’s

    This is a great campground in the Grand Canyon National Park it is close to the village, you can bike and hike fom this location. There is also a bus stop at the entrance to this campground that will take you all around the canyon to see all of the sites. All of the spots are pull through and have water electricity sewer and cable. The cell service is ok depending on where you are at. There are a lot of people from other countries that stay at this campground so you meet a lot of nice people. The campground is very close to the rim and many amenities. There is also elk that will come through and graze. We stayed for seven days in August during the rainy season very pleasant.

    Coconino Rim Road, Fire Road 310 Kaibab Forest

    Awesome forest land Just drive slowly

    Drive down road. No camping in Grand Canyon National Park, but about half a mile down the road you cross a cattle grid. You’re now in Kaibab Forest and can camp here. We drive 2WD F250 with 30ft fifth wheel

    Two ways in. We came thru Grand Canyon Village, so only 0.7 mile on dirt road - but you need to pay for GCNP access ( or use America the Beautiful)

    T-Mobile, Verizon and Visible and Cricket all excellent in this area-so good that I don’t see the need to unpack Starlink. But between here and the village we had no cell coverage

    Filled water bladder at Mather campground. Looks like I can use their dump station also

    Mather Campground — Grand Canyon National Park

    Perfect!

    Since there are so many reviews for this place I’ll keep it brief!

    -$18/night, no hookups 

    -There’s a dump station with threaded and non threaded potable water as well as non potable water near the entrance, free for campers. 

    -There are also water spigots throughout the campground. 

    -No hookups here at this campground but there’s an RV park up the road with full hookups 

    -Generator hours are limited to 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the evening. 

    -The shuttle system is wonderful and is the reason we stayed here for so many nights. We were able to explore the whole park easily. (Being in a motorhome with no tow vehicle and only our feet and bikes to get around really limits our radius of exploration). 

    -The grocery store is close by and it’s great! It’s got a ton of souvenirs and any supplies you might need, and the groceries are decently priced and there are a lot of vegan products and a great beer selection! 

    -Laundry on site Showers are $2.50/5 min 

    -Their waste bins are single stream- trash and recycling all go in the same bin. Per sign at visitor center they recycle glass, plastic, and aluminum. 

    -Verizon had 5G signal, ATT had LTE, and TMobile as always lagged behind with roaming service.

    Trailer Village RV Park — Grand Canyon National Park

    Pleasantly Surprised at Trailer Village

    We stayed two nights in Trailer Village RV Park at the Grand Canyon. We made reservations for our site four months ahead. That was necessary as the campground was full when we arrived! The sites were a good distance apart and there was green space between the RVs. Our site was on the end of a row, and there was a large grassy buffer between the site and the road. We even had plenty of room to put up a tent. Picnic tables, charcoal grills, and full hookups were all provided, including, to our surprise, cable TV! There was no WiFi and our Verizon cell signal was 1-3 bars throughout our stay. No video streaming, but text and email were fine. We have a 17' travel trailer and that plus two vehicles fit well into the parking garage area. There is also an overflow parking lot and you can pick up the Blue Line bus right at the Campground entrance station,which we did! Public bathrooms were clean and stocked, although we did not use the showers so cannot comment on those. Trash and recycle were available close to each loop.

    Long Jim Loop Campground

    Rarely used BLM land near grand canyon

    The dirt entrance road is well maintained. We are in a 40-foot motorhome, pulling a 24-foot trailer and found multiple spots big enough for us. Online reviews of this area say it's rarely used. We only saw a handful of other campers on the entire loop road. I would estimate there are 40-50 different dispersed camping spots of varying sizes on this dirt road. Very quiet and private off the main road to Grand Canyon National Park entrance.

    Tusayan-Montane — Grand Canyon National Park

    Big, Quiet Campground - But DUSTY and NO WATER or DUMP

    This is  a pleasant, out of the way campground. There is water on site, but you are NOT ALLOWED to fill your RV from it, as water has to be trucked in. There is no dump station either. You have to travel a good 10 miles into Grand Canyon National Park to dump your load.

    The sites are gravel, and they have a mix of pull through and back in sites. A good number of them are first-come, first-served. The roads are dirt and are VERY DUSTY. Don't be surprised to see a film of brown dust inside your rig if you leave the windows open.

    The hosts in the Black Bear Loop were very friendly and helpful, but not nosy like some hosts can be.

    I should also mention that, during my September stay at least, the place was absolutely SWARMED with yellow jackets. I never got stung (they aren't very aggressive) but they constantly buzz you and land on you. Gets annoying.

    Overall, this is a decent campground but I would probably not stay here again due to the extreme hassle of having to drive 20 miles to get to water and a dump station.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are the RV campgrounds located in Grand Canyon National Park?

Grand Canyon National Park offers several RV camping options. Trailer Village RV Park is located within the South Rim area, close to the main village and visitor amenities. Mather Campground is also on the South Rim, though it lacks hookups. For the East Rim, Desert View Campground provides more remote camping. Outside the park boundaries but nearby, you'll find dispersed camping options on Forest Service roads in Kaibab National Forest. The North Rim also has RV camping options, though these are seasonal due to winter closures. Most RV campgrounds inside the park are situated within a convenient distance to shuttle stops, trails, and park services.

Do I need reservations for RV camping at Grand Canyon National Park?

Yes, reservations are strongly recommended for RV camping at Grand Canyon National Park, especially during peak season (March through October). Trailer Village RV Park fills up months in advance, with some campers booking four months ahead. If you can't secure a reservation inside the park, consider Forest Service Road 328 Dispersed camping, located about 5 miles from the park entrance. This first-come, first-served area provides a good alternative when park campgrounds are full. Another option is Long Jim Loop Campground, which offers numerous dispersed camping spots suitable for large RVs and is typically less crowded than official park campgrounds.

What is the maximum RV size allowed at Grand Canyon National Park campgrounds?

Grand Canyon National Park accommodates a range of RV sizes, but restrictions vary by campground. Mather Campground has some sites that can fit larger RVs, but generally has more limited space and no hookups. For larger rigs, Grand Canyon Camper Village outside the park can accommodate bigger vehicles. The dispersed camping areas like Coconino Rim Road in Kaibab Forest are suitable for large RVs, with campers reporting successful stays with 40-foot motorhomes towing 24-foot trailers. Most pull-through sites at Trailer Village can handle rigs up to 50 feet in length. Always check specific length restrictions when making reservations, as they can vary by site within the same campground.

What amenities are available at Grand Canyon RV parks?

Trailer Village RV Park offers full hookups (water, electric, and sewer) with 50-amp service and adapters available for 30-amp RVs. Sites are pull-through with picnic tables. Tusayan-Montane provides water on site but doesn't allow RV filling and has no dump station nearby. Most park campgrounds have water spigots throughout, restrooms with flush toilets, picnic tables, and fire rings. Dump stations are available near the entrance of some campgrounds. Pay showers are located near registration areas. The parks typically provide access to shuttle services for transportation around the canyon. Cell service is generally available but can be spotty in some areas.
