If you want to see an absolute gorgeous photo of Mooney Falls which is also around the area, check out the October issue of AZ Highways Magazine. It's stunning!
If you take a raft trip down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon you can see other lovely falls. We did it on a 9-day trip. Awesome experience.
We've been to the South Rim and enjoy it (off season) but we really like the North Rim for the cooler temps and because it's low-key and less crowded.

Just south of the campground are wonderful places to boondock and you only have to drive 1/2 miles or so on a flat, well-maintained gravel road to start finding spots. Of course, you can stay in the park itself, also.
