We just returned from a 4 day/3 night trip to the North Rim staying at the Jacob Lake USFS CG.
The CG has 51 sites and sits at the top of the grade at 7.900' on the {very} scenic stretch of Highway 89A south west of Page Arizona.
From the junction of highway 67 and 89A it is 47 miles due south to the North Rim. We planned to ride our Can Am Spyder down to the National Park and explore the area for a couple of days before returning home but the remnants of tropical Storm Kay had other plans. We got a great ride in on Monday morning but had to scurry back to camp to beat the incoming thunderstorms which unfortunately lasted through Wednesday morning and our return home.
Jacob Lake has Vault toilets, fire rings and concrete tables. They provide drinking water {but not for filling RV's}. The entire CG is gravel and the hosts do an excellent job of keeping up all of the facilities. Sites are $24 a night and $12 with our Geezer card and weekends reservations are recommended.
It officially closes on 10/15 or the first serious snowfall which ever comes first {put your money on the snow}. We have stayed here half a dozen times as it makes for a great overnight stop when we would travel to Zion, Bryce Canyon or Capitol Reel NP's.
Here is a shot of our site::
