Phantom Ranch is the only accommodation in the Grand Canyon and is usually booked out for years. In the evening you can choose between a hiker stew or steak with beans and potatoes. These two dinners are also booked months in advance. But in the Ranch shop you can buy various snacks and drinks.

You should definitely send a postcard from the Phantom Ranch, because it gets the stamp "Mailed by mule". The mail is still transported from the Grand Canyon by mule like back in the days.

Here you can get a delicious homemade lemonade after a long hike or - if you want something alcoholic - a beer.
Beware: in summer the temperatures can be brutal here.
Then only helps to cool off in Bright Angel Creek. Directly at the campground there are good opportunities for this when there is little water.
