Gouldings is ok and has a nice indoor pool but its several miles from the actual valley. I would stay at the Navajo tribal park right on the edge of the valley. No hookups and not a big place but its spectacular just walking a few feet to watch the sunrise or sunset. Don't think there are reservations, either (except for the Navajo one!) Last time we were there several years ago it was only $10/night but I'm sure thats changed now. They recently built a big hotel on the rim. You can also drive your truck down the valley for an 18 mile loop with no guide but if you want to see more you have to hire a local guide, they're standing around waiting for you.
UPDATE: I just went to the Tribal Park website and the campground is closed for construction till Dec 2013 so Gouldings is the only nearby park.
