The greatest place to camp. Very cold in May beware of changing weather! Easy and free bus system to access the park. Sites were spread enough but wasn’t at full capacity. This is a must!

Great location. The stars were amazing. I have never seen that many stars before. Camp fires are not allowed. But the stars made up for it. Camp sites are small, but it's expected given the location. Be sure to lock your food and scented item up. Squirrels will eat your stuff through your backpack. There is running water. I will definitely be returning.

Really cool place and experience! Takes time to get to. Make sure you have your permit!!! They’re hard to come by but they’re worth getting to camp down here. Would recommend going for fall or spring, during the summer the nights start around 85-90 degrees F but cool down to maybe 70.

This is a Robinson-style accommodation where you can't expect luxury, but despite that, the campsite is excellently equipped and located in a perfect spot next to Bright Angel Creek, where you can refresh yourself after hiking. The entire location is very picturesque, and the camp is mostly occupied by hikers who observe quiet hours, so it's truly peaceful and pleasant. Each plot has its own food box and a usable table, which is very useful during summer when shade moves. The toilets are centrally located in the camp, along with drinking water. It's a perfect place.

FANTASTIC CAMPGROUND! Perfect set up for R2R hikers or for people looking to overnight in one of the most beautiful places on earth. The campground sits off the North Kaibab Trail giving some privacy away from the rest of the traffic on trail. Has about 31 spots ranging in number of tents able to be set up. All spots have a picnic table and post to hang your pack from as well as a food box to keep your gear and the local wildlife safe. We did encounter some deer strolling through camp on the day we left so be watchful when your food is out. 10/10 would recommend this stay to anyone staying at the bottom of the Grand Canyon.

Beautiful scenery! Some sites are more open than others. Close to boat beach and phantom ranch. Bathrooms were clean and had flushing toilets and running water! We stayed the last week of January 2022, temps got down to 33 and high of 65

I camped on Thanksgiving in November 2021. The daytime temperature was 55F, the weather was wonderful, and the scenery was, unsurprisingly, very beautiful. The campsite is located along a creek and was not full. At night it was jet black and the stars were very beautiful. I was very tired and thought I would soon fall asleep, but the sound of the creek bothered me, and the temperature was only 25F, so I was too cold to sleep at all night. Ear plugs and protection from the cold are definitely necessary.

Campground very cool, the service at the restaurant there was deplorable. Thus the 3 stars as average.

Clean water and porcelain thrones after a 9 mile hike is awesome!
