I visited the GC the week between Christmas and New Years a few years ago and camped at a KOA in Williams AZ outside the park. It was cold at night and a little cool during the day, but comfortable for walking around. I learned to drain the water hose at night on that trip. The park itself was nice with very little snow, but be cautious of the trails; I chose one that was a little icy so it was a slow hike down and back. As mentioned before, be flexible and watch the weather. With the altitude changes in the area, if its snowing in Williams or Flagstaff, Winslow to the east or Phoenix to the south (on 17) should be clear of snow.
Williams has a train that goes into the park and at that time of the year its a Christmas themed Polar Express type ride. I have ridden the train on an October trip, but I had a train and hotel deal so I was not in the trailer on that trip. The train ride was pretty fun, but watch out for the train robbers on the return trip!
Have fun and enjoy your trip.
