We stayed in Black Bear loop site 35 in 34 ft 5th wheel June 18-23. Site was spacious and quiet. Very few other sites occupied. Campground is 2 miles south of Tusayan and 4 miles south of entrance to Grand Canyon. Enjoyed our stay and time spent in Grand Canyon National Park. Will defiantly return if in the area

Awesome location. Paved roads and camp sites with lots of trees. Arrived around 430 pm with no reservations. Plenty of available sites. We got a nice pull through site to fit our class C motor home. Camp sites are spread out nicely. Several bull elk right in our camp.

This place is now $28/night after the reservation fee. It’s super close to the south rim entrance, has water, bathrooms, and elk that cruz through. So that’s the good. The bad is that there’s very little privacy between sites, horse droppings are left in random places, only about 70% of the picnic tables were upgraded and the others are beat up pretty bad, and everything in the site is just dirt. If you don’t need water or a bathroom, there’s dispersed spots all around this campground and you can save your $28.

Awesome campsite. Convenient water and bathrooms were clean. Not far from the Grand Canyon southern entrance. We had elk grazing near our campsite and bedded down just 50 yards from our tent. Great experience and I would definitely go back.

They have a lot of Boondocking in the area, but feel better in an etablished campground. Lot of pull thru's but many are pretty tight to get a fifth wheel thru. It is within 5 miles of Grand Canyon and there are grocery stores close. $5 per night if you have the card.

Great price $10 a night. Nice campgrounds, clean, quiet, close to the grand canyon. Get supplies before you come here, nearest store 45 miles. We will come back here again.

Beautiful campground set in a pine forest a short drive to Grand Canyon. Features large, well spaced sites with plenty of privacy including many pull throughs. Water is available and the pit toilets are clean. If you can't get into one of the National Park campgrounds this is a fine alternative. If you value privacy and peace and quiet over proximity, it may in fact, be a better alternative. We camped here in a travel trailer.

We visited the south rim in mid-October 2014. Ten-X was closed, so we tried Forest Service Road 302. Very nice. There's a map within the first quarter mile that shows where you can camp. No problem finding spot for 34' RV. Only potential problem is helicopters leaving airport for tours of the Grand Canyon during the day, which we thought was kind of cool. We were gone during the day, so saw first flights around 9am or last around 5:30pm. The sign for FR 302 is south of Tusayan, between airport and McDonalds.
