Maswik Lodge

[1] It is named after a Hopi Kachina figure said to watch over the Grand Canyon.

[1] Maswik Lodge is located about 0.25 miles (0.40 km) from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.

[1] The lodge began in 1927 as a Fred Harvey hotel for drivers of their own automobiles (as opposed to most of the travelers who arrived on rail or stage coaches).

Fodor's review of the lodge noted pros: "well-equipped northern unites, good for families, and affordable dining."

Fodor's review noted cons of: "rooms lack historic charm, tucked away from the rim in the forest, and south units don't have air conditioning."
