"once in lifetime experience , you can eat snack but might want look out for birds flying nearby .."
"This place is really cool and right on the edge of the Grand Canyon South rim. Pretty much built into the rocks with strong lookout locations. Has a gift shop inside. Stop inside once you’re here."
"Incredible view. Came on a weekday. It was not busy. Is free to enter and wander around."
"This is truly an architectural masterpiece. It seems to grow out of the rocky cliffs of the Grand Canyon. Hard to believe it was built in 1914, well over 100 years ago--it looks much more contemporary. Views are truly stunning. Well worth a visit, even if the interiors are crowded with visitors."
"(December 2021 travel story) Not look you get amazing views going in and through the lookout studio, but you also get to sit and enjoy the view from different vista points. Studio has really good collection of crafts and arts made by Native American artists. I bought hand made mini coasters and trinkets crafted by artists as souvenirs."
