"Loved our stay and experience!!! It’s an old style 1970s looking room that reminds me of Red Roof Inn, but that is part of the experience. The fact we were within a 5 minute walk from the South Rim and I walked there 2 mornings straight (we stayed for 2 nights) to see the sunrise by 5:11am was amazing! Also, on our last morning, our family went for a hike on Bright Angel Trailhead at 6:30am, which starts at the south rim (same place where I saw sunrise),
finished a little after 9am and walked back to Maswik Lodge for a wonderful breakfast. All done before we had to checkout by 11am. The close proximity to everything was so worth it! Oh! The shuttles are amazing! Super easy and come every 15 mins. We took a shuttle the day before to the free Hermit’s Rest tour that lasted 80 minutes. On our way back, we decided to get off the shuttle to go eat dinner at the Maswik Lodge and then took a shuttle back to the visitor center for the Star Party, which is also where our car was parked. Smooth transitions with every shuttle we took. We look forward to coming back and staying much longer when we can!!"
