About Tusayan - Montane

COMMERCIAL TOUR GROUPS ARE NOT ALLOWED AT TUSAYAN-MONTANE CAMPGROUNDCommercial operators MUST obtain a special use permit to operate on National Forest System lands, including Tusayan-Montane Campground. Due to high public demand, Kaibab National Forest will not be issuing any special use permits for Tusayan-Montane Campground until further notice. Therefore, no commercial tour groups are allowed at Tusayan-Montane Campground. All violators will be removed from the campground immediately and given a fine for violating the Code of Federal Regulations. Perhaps the biggest draw to Tusayan-Montane Campground in northern Arizona is its proximity to the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park. Located just 4 miles south of the park entrance in beautiful Kaibab National Forest, Tusayan-Montane is a quiet, peaceful campground that generally has open camping sites. A nature trail weaves its way through the pine forest, and many more hiking opportunities are within a short drive. The facility can accommodate individual and family visitors, as well as large groups up to 75 people.

This is a beautiful campground conveniently located close to the small town of Tusayan and the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. We arrived on Wednesday before the labor day weekend and found the campground mostly empty. There are two new loops with gravel roads and sites. By the weekend there were many more campers, mostly tent campers. For RV owners be careful to see if your unit will fit in a back in site. Our travel trailer measures 32' and fit well but I had to park my truck a bit sideways to completely fit the site. The pull throughs were much larger and next time will choose one of those sites.

The campground hosts were most informative and friendly. They told us the yellowjacket infestation made camping intolerable in July up to about mid August and many people had to leave however another host who has been coming here for 14 years had never seen this over the top infestation. We did see yellowjackets and did not cook outside as to not attract them but it was not bad.

There is water available but is hauled in so RV's are not allowed to fill there tanks but water is available to meet daily needs. There is no dump station. Generator hours are from 7am until 9pm. We used a portable tote tank for our gray and black water and a 30 gallon water bladder. At Mather campground inside Grand Canyon NP you can use the dump station and fill up with fresh water.

You are 2 miles south of Tusayan, 4 miles from the NP entrance station, and about 10 miles from the actual rim of the canyon.

Besides the natural beauty and convenient location, we enjoyed the star gazing at night, dark so you could see the milky way! We did not see elk but heard them bugling at night.

The camp hosts said most tent campers were foreign visitors. The group camp facilities are new and beautiful with great lighting.

This is now our go to campground when visiting the Grand Canyon. We camped at Trailer Village inside the park with hookups but you are crammed in close and wow, $75 a night now.

Nice campground, well maintained, hosts were exceptionally helpful and friendly, and "the cleanest bathrooms we've ever seen". Sites generally well spaced with good shade. Great location for visiting the Grand Canyon. Just a few minutes drive to Tusayan, and the entrance to the canyon. Reasonable cell service on Verizon and AT&T. Only downsides were some highway noise, and the centralized trash and water (far enough away that we drove each time, rather than walking). We had some yellow jackets, but hosts relocated a trap near our site. Problem solved!

Campground was great. Site nicely spaced. Clean bathrooms, friendly and helpful hosts. Only complaint was $28 to book online but only $20 to pay in person. Highly recommend 10X

The campsite was in a beautiful pine and meadow area. During the night I heard elk calls. There was no raised gravel platform to set up your tent, so it is up to you to locate a flat spot. There was no water available, which is not always the case in National Forest campgrounds. The entire campground was barely being used while only 9 miles north the Grand Canyon campgrounds were full.

Vault toilets were very clean and no smell at all. Multiple times daily cleaned. Kind hosts.
Location is perfect, close to south rim Grand Canyon. Seen some deer/elks next to our campsite

I really enjoyed Ten-X campground. The seclusion and ample distance between campsites was great.
I would really like to see a dump station added to Ten-X campground.
Thank you.
