Best Campgrounds near Jacob Lake, AZ

It's a big RV and tent park close to the South Rim and quit neat. Recommended to book beforehand. We stayed at a place with only water + picnic table ($30), instead of a place with everything ($79-89).

I usually stick to dispersed camping, but this spot was worth it the view is incredible, and despite the people it was very quiet.

The roads are fine, it’s not too far off the freeway. It is part of a national park, so you have to pay the entrance fee and camping fee.

There is endless amounts of space from spots at the top all the way down to the beach shore. I went down closer to the beach-very worth it. I was near the rock, so there were a lot of day visitors parking right next to me. It was a bit of a bummer but I expected it.

No bugs, but there were a lot of bats at dusk. That was cool to see

I would definitely come back and bring some paddle board’s and kayaks.

This a very small RV park. 10-12 spots. Pretty rundown. Spot next to me had broken electrical post with exposed wires. Dog poo everywhere. A few small trash cans scattered around, but too small for a small kitchen trash bag. I think this park was built as a second thought. It does sit on nice little stream.

When I called to make reservations, the young man casually mentioned that the office is closed on Wednesdays & Thursdays. If we wanted to use the hot tub, we needed to go across the street to the Chevron gas station for a key. We arrived around 4pm and my confirmation email did not specify a spot. So I went to Chevron and was given a choice of 2 spots. The signs are terrible. Email comes from Thunderbird Lodge Best Western. Nothing matches up. Not much Verizon signal and no WiFi available. There is a Subway sandwich shop across the street.

If just passing through for quick stop, I guess it’s minimally acceptable. We would not stay there again.

This is a beautiful place! Open with vistas in all directions. So well run! Gorgeous sites, bathrooms, showers, laundry, terrace for social gathering, little store with fresh eggs, little library book exchange and more. The attention to detail is what makes this place luxurious. We loved our one night stay here and will return in the summer when it is warm enough to sit outside!

Really big campground with alot of bathrooms throughout. Make sure to read site descriptions as some spots are very short. Showers and laundry is available at camper services. Showers cost $2.50 for 5 mins.

Great sized camping area so you have plenty of space between you and your neighbor. There is an upper shelf of campsites about 100 yards from the water at the edge of a gentle slope. There is a whole other camping area below if you want to literally be on the water. I didn't want to risk the drive down because the sand seems a little bit looser. 

The drive down from the road to the beach is very hard packed in most areas, and can easily be done in a 2WD as long as you are aware of where you are going and don't get into the wrong spots. No bumps at all. 

There is a bunch station with water and sewer on the way in which is a great bonus for this dispersed style of camping. Cost is $14 a night so it's not free BLM, but that keeps the masses away.

Right off the road next to the northwest side of the Coral Pink Sand Dunes. Has an entrance for both pedestrians and OHV's to get into the dunes from here. About 3 miles from he main entrance to the Dunes State Park and activities. 

Big sand and dirt parking lot. Sand is really packed down in most of the lot, but there are a few areas to be careful driving in. Really level in most of the parking lot. 

Stayed 3 days in February and was all alone camping, saw a few OHV's pass through and each day 1-2 groups of OHV day users would park here.

Translation: Almost nothing to say. It's just a shame that the showers and washing machines are a 10 minute walk or 2 minute drive from the Rv Park

Presque rien à dire. C’est juste dommage que les douches et les machines à laver soient à 10 minutes de marche ou 2 min de voiture du Rv Park

Very clean and has access to the sand dunes

During my recent stay at Mather Campground in Grand Canyon National Park, I was impressed by the spacious campsites and well-maintained facilities. Each site is equipped with a picnic table and fire ring, providing a comfortable setting for meals and evening gatherings. The restrooms were clean and conveniently located, and the availability of drinking water stations throughout the campground was a notable convenience. The presence of elk wandering through the area added a unique and memorable touch to the experience. The campground's proximity to shuttle services made it easy to explore various parts of the park without the need to drive. While some sites are closer together than others, the overall atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. For families traveling with children, it's worth noting that the nearby general store offers a variety of supplies, including snacks and games, which can be useful for keeping young ones entertained during downtime. For instance, bringing along an iPad with engaging apps like Getting Over it can provide children with creative and educational activities during quiet moments at the campsite. Overall, Mather Campground serves as an excellent base for exploring the Grand Canyon.

Very quiet and not busy this time of year. Had 5 G and 2 bars with Verizon.

Full hook up right by Grand Canyon. Free shuttle buses every 15 mins to the rim and various visitors centers. $85 a night in January a nit steep!

Great place, drove about a mile in and found a site that is spectacular. Had no problem with our 35 foot 5th wheel and truck combo. Will need to revisit in the spring.

This is a nice spot just outside Page The turning isn't marked if you're driving in the dark and it's a bumpy drive to the camping spots There was only room for two vans max, thankfully we were the only ones Nice views in the morning We were passed by a few vehicles going off roading

Great place to spend a night, with few trucks and little road noise.
