Grand Canyon Motel Resort & Campground

The location was so quiet, loads of star gazing, and beautiful for a relaxing vac. Had full hook-up for 4 nights here and will DEFINITELY be coming back. The restaurant had the best wings and burgers. John (the owner) was the best host we could have asked for. Highly recommend a stay here.

Great place to camp at while visiting the grand canyon.
Very quiet, and a great view of the stars.
The owner (John) is a great guy, very friendly.
The restaurant has awesome food. Check out the size of the wings! We'll definitely be going back, hopefully soon.

My girlfriend and I stayed here last year to check out the fall foliage. We basically had the entire place to ourselves. The room was very clean, bed was ridiculously comfortable, Wi-Fi worked flawlessly, bathroom was clean and never ran out of hot water. The restaurant and bar is massive !!! Will be returning this summer hands down !!! Upadate, we did return over the summer and stayed in the jacuzzi suite. That room was massive!!! The only other people staying was a couple with a camper. The owner John is hands down the best guy ever, if you have an issue he tends to it right away. We got to use a fire ring basically all day and had a blast !!! We're planning on bringing the kiddos with this summer 2024, they'll enjoy being outside nonstop.

We showed up as a family on 8/25 for 5 days. Excellent service, campsite, full hookup, restaurant, bar, giftshop, and gameroom. Too bad The Commonwealth gave them no notice that Harrison State Park was closed from May until now.....

Support vets, their families, and all of those harmed by the government they sought to protect.

We were arriving late on motorcycles and I would have sworn there was no way this place was where the GPS was taking us! We arrived and John (owner) kept the grill open (after 9PM) and we had a excellent hamburger with fries and a cold one. Room was clean and comfortable, water hot and heat was working well! Very accommodating to motorcyclist riding the MABDR. Would stay again! Thank you.

Veteran owned and great hospitality! Rooms were also very clean and same with the bathrooms. The owner will cook whatever you want from the menu. Please support a veteran owned business

what a great place to stay!! we were there from 8 - 12 Oct the campground site was great, the bar and restaurant were great, the WINGs are OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! ! if you looking for peace, quite and random critters coming around ( Deer and Fox's) this is the place for you!!

Didn't know what to expect when I got there. Ratings were decent on Google. John is a nice guy to talk with and a veteran which is what interested me about patronizing his business. Not to mention the fact that a campsite to pitch a tent only cost $10. Other places in the area were at least triple the price to do the same thing.
This place was a nice establishment. Just the basics provided. Not a ton of bells and whistles. I can't speak for the motel. But the bath house they provided was great to freshen up, take a shower, or go to the bathroom. It was nice to have those small things provided.
The restaurant (though not a five star dinning experience) had good food. Easier to go there and get a bite to eat than drive into Wellsboro to find a place to eat.
If I ever come back to the area again I would consider patronizing this place again.

Tucked away, I love to escape to this off the grid location. It’s so easy to get in touch with nature here. Always so quiet and peaceful. I’ve never had an issue. The camp store has the most wonderful lounge with a full amazing menu, great drink selections, pool tables and Music. The owner is a great guy who prides himself on cleanliness and outstanding customer service.

For value and convenience, this place is excellent. We used this as an overnight stop en route. Got to Leonard Harrison State Park to get a view of the sunset at the PA Grand Canyon. The motel is a mile from the entrance to the state park. The rooms are cozy, clean, basic, and quiet. If you are expecting something fancy, this is not the place. If you want a place that is centrally located (1 mile from Leonard Harrison State Park, and 15 minutes from the East Rim, this is a great place to go. The prices are excellent as well and the owner is very friendly.

Booked here at the campground last minute for Labor Day weekend! If you aren’t into the hussle and bustle that other campgrounds offer, this place is great, super low key and quiet, perfect place to bring our dogs who are new to camping and to simply relax! We’ll definitely be back!

Love the solitude! Only complaint was strong smell in room......but it was a strong smell of cleaning products, nothing offensive. Will definitely stay again if we come back to this part of PA!

Had a great time. Was taking a trip on the motorcycle with my fiancé and our sleeping arrangements fell through. Needed a place to campout at 11:00pm and they answered the call. Excellent prices. The camping area is far enough away from the motel/bar. Camping area is quiet with fire pit and close by wood. Backwoods bar at the motel was just my scene. I will definitely be back. This place is great.

Perfect stop at end of 6 hour motorcycle ride.
Bar withing walking distance of bed.
Room was very clean, bed was comfortable.
John the owner, very friendly
The Radish burger was one of the best burgers I have ever eaten!

Stayed for 2 nights on a Monday/Tuesday. Room was clean, owner was very accomodating. Rates are reasonable in my opinion.

I was going to do some riding/sight seeing in the PA Grand Canyon and the location of this place was perfect.

I'm not sure I understand some of these 1/5 reviews, this place is right in line with the area and looked nicer then a lot of other similar style places I drove by. I assume I could pay 2 or 3 times the nightly rate for something more updated but I'm not there to hang out in a room. I've been to nice/expensive resorts in the Caribbean and dealt with musty rooms, busted toilets and other issues that didn't exist here.

Prepare yourself for the area....nothing is open late during the week and these hotels are keeping you out of a tent and providing a room/shower for a cheap price. I think luxury is defined a little bit differently in these areas and that's what gives it character.

You hang out at your parents or grandparent's house that is straight out of 1970 and you're totally fine with it so get ready to have fun and enjoy some beautiful country while taking a step back in time in the Wellsboro area!

If you sip wine with a pinky up go find a 5 star hotel for $150 a night. If you want to have a nice getaway close to some great sight seeing just give John a call and he'll set you up with a room!

I always try to support the little guy. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the rooms are kept. John, the owner is a nice guy. You can get a meal n beer most anytime. I will go here next time in the area.

This motel is one of my favorites, we stay at alot of motels and is probably my favorite. The kids also loved it. The rooms are super clean. The bar is laid back n comfortable. Definitely will be staying here again.

Quiet and peaceful, not the hustle and bustle of many of the larger parks. John the owner is great and laid back person. Burgers at the restaurant were awsome, and of course, the beer too.

We had a nice time here. It was clean and comfortable. Located in a convenient location for walking through town and a short drive to Pennsylvania Grand Canyon.

We did not stay in the motel, we camped in the campground. Fun experience, flies were a bit excessive. Relaxing vacation. Nice bar/restaurant onsite. Owners were extremely friendly.
