In the agency’s own words
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. Keep reading
Recreation
The campground has trail connectivity to the town of Tusayan and the Arizona National Scenic Trail. The Tusayan-Montane Loop Trails offer up to 9 miles of non-motorized trails. The trails are open to Equestrian, Hiking, and Biking users. E-Bikes are also allowed. However, Equestrian use is not allowed within the campground. The campground has two of the five access points to the trail system. The other three trailhead locations are on Forest Road 302. There is also a shorter loop trail within the campground that allow visitors to observe local flora and fauna. Elsewhere, the nearby town of Tusayan offers horseback riding, helicopter rides, and other tours. Many hiking, sightseeing, cultural history, and outdoor recreation opportunities lie just a few miles away in Grand Canyon National Park.
Facilities
The campground has 142 single campsites across 5 loops, each accommodating up to eight people maximum. There are also 18 double campsites that can accommodate up to 14 people. 30 of these sites are non-reservable and only available on a first-come, first-served basis. All other sites are reservable. Sites include picnic tables, fire pits and grills, and vehicle parking, with access to nearby vault toilets. There are also two group sites. Group Site A accommodates up to 75 people. Group Site B accommodates up to 50 people. Groups larger than 75 people can reserve both Group Sites A and B. The group sites have picnic shelters, tables, and tent pads. Centralized water spigots and trash dumpsters are available in the Flameflower Loop for all campers. Due to limited water supply, RVs are not permitted to fill holding tanks.
Natural Features
Tusayan-Montane is situated in a pleasant Ponderosa pine and Gambel oak forest at an elevation of 6,600 ft. The forest is nestled on the Colorado Plateau, an area of land that was uplifted by geologic processes. Summer temperatures range from 50 degrees at night to 80-90 degrees during the day. Summer thunderstorms, known as the monsoon, can build up quickly, especially during July and August. Snow is common from December through March.
Nearby Attractions
Grand Canyon National Park's South Rim, just 4 miles away, is a must-see for Tusayan-Montane campers. The adjacent town of Tusayan has a wide array of amenities, such as a gas station, restaurants, small grocery store, banks, hotels, internet access, mountain biking trails and many different tours.

Nothing on the booking system for the next 30 nightsread 16:48 UTC
recreation.gov lists 160 of the 167 campsites the agency files here. The rest aren’t on its booking system, so a reservation won’t get you one.
Every one of the next thirty nights is in recreation.gov’s record and not one site is being offered on any of them. That’s a campground closed or not yet released for booking, not a sold-out one.

What you actually pay
“Each additional vehicle is subject to a fee of $5 per vehicle, per night.” · the U.S. Forest Service’s own fee record
Derived by CAMPANAC: the agency’s published rates for this season, $20–$40 a night, plus one $8 recreation.gov reservation fee for the booking. A weekend here means Friday and Saturday night, booked once. Optional charges (an extra vehicle, a second tent, a dump-station fee) are listed separately and aren’t in this total.
Who keeps the booking fee
The agency’s own policy text says the reservation fee and the cancellation processing fee are “retained by the reservation service contractor”, and that a campground concessionaire will decline to refund them because “they did not receive these fees”. Recreation.gov is run under contract by Booz Allen Hamilton. What share of your booking fee the contractor keeps isn’t published in any federal dataset we can read, so we print no number for it.

The price is derived by CAMPANAC, not published per site: the per-night rate this campground publishes for each site’s own site type. 167 of the 167 sites listed carry one, and a site whose type has no published rate sits out of the price rather than being called free.
