Grand Canyon National Park
Operated by the NPS, this campground, 1.5 miles north of the Grand Canyon Lodge, offers shaded sites on level ground among the ponderosas. Sites 11, 14, 15, 16 and 18 have canyon views...and cost $25 – but site 10 is pretty sweet too.
You can – and should – make reservations online up to six months in advance.
Walk-up sites are available for hikers and bikers only. There's water, a store, a snack bar, coin-operated showers and laundry facilities, but no hookups.
