Great location. Parking isn’t ideal but worth the hassle since it is within steps from the canyon rim. Everything you need amenity wise is close by either in the lodge or next door

Amazing property right on the Rim Trail of the Grand Canyon. Comfortable beds, clean and tidy. Parking is difficult - no dedicated parking sports so you have to take your chances of finding a spot on the public roads along with the thousands of other visitors.

Our two queen bed room had the most wonderful view of the canyon. We awoke very morning to a a beautiful view. The room is nothing fancy but was clean with coffee in the room. This is one of the best spots to sleep in the park.

The location of the property was fantastic! We were just steps away from the Grand Canyon and even had a great view from our room. The downside was the size of the room and that it was a little outdated. The shower was a challenge for my husband and daughter, who are tall. Otherwise, we enjoyed our time there.

location is amazing, it's an older property with few amenities and certainly not cheap, but being right on the rim of the grand canyon made it worth it for us, the trailhead for Bright Angel trail is just steps away, super convenient
