Mockturtle, Yes every campground we saw was packed. Even the off grid/boondocking sites were full or nearly so. About two miles down the gravel road beyond Woods Canyon Lake there are about 40 boon docking sites, about half of which sit right on the Rim itself, you just have to camp within 50' of the "Camp Here" post. Every site was occupied and when we drove our Rzr another 15 miles into the boonies there were lots of folks most of whom looked like they had been or would be there for the maximum permitted 14 day stay.
If you are headed up to the Rim I recommend trying for reservations whenever possible. Keep in mind it is a short season with most of the Cg's shutting down in early October or with the first snowfall that can come even earlier. We only had one brief rain on Wednesday afternoon and returning to Tucson found more record breaking temperatures with no chance of rain in the 7 day forecast... Arrrrg!
