Wahweap is a nice CG. If you stay there, you are within a short walk of the boat tours of the lake and other included amenities such as the resort hotel pool and park ranger talks, as I recall. Don't miss the tour of Glen Canyon Dam - you need to make a reservation and provide ID. Fascinating to go down inside it and also walk on top, and the films are worth seeing.
We moved over from Wahweap to the CG in Page itself for convenience at the end of our visit to take an excellent guided raft tour on the Colorado River the next day which departed from the town. The tour operator provided bus transport from their office to the raft dock at the start, and picked you up at Lee's Ferry at the conclusion to return to Page.
I highly recommend all three tours, boating above the dam, inside the dam, and rafting below - really enjoyable and gives you a full picture of that controversial project.
