Camping Accommodations in the Grand Canyon, South Rim, Arizona

Grand Canyon (South Rim) Camping Information



Trailer Village (run by Xanterra) ~ These have full hook-ups, including cable and are all pull-through sites. We enjoyed our stay here. To read a more extensive review – click here. Price: $32/night. Can reserve by either: http://www.xanterra.com/ or call: 928-638-2631 (can call this number for same-day reservations as well).

Mather Campground ~ This is run by the National Park Service. There are no hook-ups, but plenty of sites that could house a larger rig, some pull-through. Firepits and picnic tables at every site, and it is well treed for those hot summer days. We would have stayed here if it wasn’t so cold at night and we wanted hook-ups to run our electric heater. There is a dump/sani-station, as well as showers and laundry (both coin operated). Price: $18/night. Can reserve through http://www.recreation.gov/ or call: 877-444-6777. Some sites are first-come/first-served.

Desert View Campground ~ Also run by the National Park Service, this is a self-register, first-come/first-served campground open only seasonally, usually opening in mid-May. Price: $12/night. This is located at Desert View, which is 25 miles east of Grand Canyon Village.

**Please note that these prices may change. Please call ahead to confirm rates.**
