Best RV Parks & Resorts near Grand Canyon, AZ

Trailer Village RV Park inside Grand Canyon National Park provides 50-foot pull-through sites with full hookups including water, sewer, and 50-amp electrical service. Sites have gravel pads with picnic tables and can accommodate large motorhomes and fifth wheels. Grand Canyon Camper Village in Tusayan, just one mile from the South Entrance, offers sites with 30-amp and 50-amp electrical connections along with water and sewer hookups. "This is a great campground in the Grand Canyon National Park. It is close to the village, you can bike and hike from this location. All of the spots are pull through and have water, electricity, sewer and cable," noted one visitor. Raptor Ranch RV Park in Valle, approximately 30 miles south of the park entrance, features pull-through sites with water hookups and a dump station near the entrance.

Reservations are essential during peak seasons as campgrounds fill quickly, particularly in summer months when demand surges. Cell service varies significantly throughout the area, with Trailer Village offering 1-3 bars of Verizon service suitable for email and texting but not video streaming. Dump stations are available at Trailer Village and Mather Campground for registered campers, though some dispersed camping areas require driving up to 10 miles to access dump facilities. Most RV parks near Grand Canyon remain open year-round, though winter visitors should prepare for temperatures that can drop to 20°F at night. Several campgrounds impose generator restrictions during specific hours, typically allowing operation for just a few hours in mornings and evenings to maintain quiet conditions.

    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.

    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.

    DeMotte National Forest Campground

    Close to GC North Rim and very wooded

    Demotte was heavily wooded with fairly private sites. A variety of camping situations and equipment coexisted easily. The 15 min drive into Grand Canyon park was great (psssst cheaper gas inside of GC park than outside of it).
    Pit toilets, potable water, and picnic table and fire ring were all appreciated. No showers and no Verizon cell service at all. I’d stay there again! Just wish there were more amenities.

    Grand Canyon Camper Village

    Close to the south rim with few cons

    Absolutely perfect to get in and out of the Grand Canyon south rim. Only one mile from the entrance. Great small town just outside the campground too. Quant shops, Starbucks, IMAX, airport, and restaurants. We got a full hook up pull through. Hook ups were adequate at best. Showers and restrooms were disgusting, but we did not use them. Absolutely no WiFi, cable or reception. They do rent movies for $1.00, but limited old copies. Site 51 needed a lot of leveling, but had a fire ring. Absolutely loved the elk coming most mornings, and mustangs in evenings. The National forest area behind the park, was good hiking. Trailer Park with some sketchy characters walking around was attached to the campground. Overall for four days it was ok, especially given how close it was to the park!

    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

    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.

    Trailer Village RV Park — Grand Canyon National Park

    Winter Camping Experience

    I would say that this review may be different from most. We arrived March 21 and departed on ‘March 24. We were able to call and get reservations last minute, probably due to the fact that most people did their research and knew there was a snowstorm coming. I knew we were supposed to get bad weather, but the day after we arrived, we woke up to about 4” of snow. The south rim and visitors center were closed. We made the best of our day and went out that afternoon during a break in the storm and we’re able to get to a viewpoint from El Tovar. I was very excited to see the canyon for my first time. Nope - Denied! The canyon itself was socked in with either a cloud or fog. The next day it snowed off and on, and the Grand Canyon remained closed. We drove over to Mather Point and were able to see some views! I really wish we could have seen the whole south rim, but we will have to come back. As far as the campground - we had full hook ups, which was very nice considering the weather. Water, Sewer, 50 Amp. No dog park, you just walk the dog and pick up after them. We had enough cell service that we could watch YouTube. ATT. No Wi-Fi, which is to be expected. My suspicions are that during good weather, you would have a very difficult time getting a spot at this campground as it is very convenient to the park. I think I would have loved it here if I was able to get out and enjoy it more, but we were basically stuck in the fifth wheel. We are a 40’ fifth wheel and the space was 50’ and easy to pull into. Also easy to get out of. I would recommend this park.
