About Cameron Trading Post

Cameron Trading Post sits along the Little Colorado River Gorge about half an hour from the South Rim entrance of Grand Canyon National Park. It began as a hotel serving travelers in the early 1900s and now also includes a restaurant, an art gallery of Native American works such as Navajo rugs, Hopi pottery, and kachinas, and a gift shop of more than 8,000 square feet. Visitors can watch a rug weaver at work in the rug room. The site also has an RV park and gardens, and its staff describe it as a base for visiting Lake Powell, Canyon de Chelly, and Monument Valley.
