Yavapai Lodge

Yavapai Lodge is the park's largest facility, and is nestled within woodlands approximately one quarter of a mile from the rim. With modern newly renovated rooms and many services within walking distance, this is a convenient place for families. Yavapai Lodge is normally open March through November and during winter holiday periods.

Yavapai Lodge offers 358 rooms that are laid out in ten single-story buildings known as Yavapai West and six two-story wood buildings known as Yavapai East. Most rooms in Yavapai West are compact with cinder-block walls, but they do afford guests the benefit of driving to the door. Yavapai East's units are larger, with king-size beds and air-conditioning, and many enjoy views of the forest.

Yavapai Lodge is located next to the Market Plaza, which includes a general store, bank, and U.S. Post Office. In addition the Yavapai Lodge features a cafeteria that is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The curio shop has a wide range of gifts plus a transportation and activities desk is located in the lobby.
