Watch for wildlife and cattle, especially early morning or twilight.
Sites are gravel and seem very level, if not spacious. Dust can be a problem from passing vehicles in one's loop. Quiet at night since the campground is not on a busy highway. Temps are usually 10-20 degrees cooler than those on the South Rim, so be prepared for chilly nights and mornings.
