The hiking and nature is 5 out of 5 stars. The hospitality and customer service of the lodge and cafe is 1 out of 5 stars. Today (Sunday 7/28) at the cafe, the person in charge of opening, closing,… Full review by AndyAwestralia

We stayed in the village at The Lodge when we hiked to the falls. The town store has everything you need and don’t want to carry down. It is expensive because they have to get the product to the th… Full review by RRH01

It will be extremely difficult to arrange what you want. Here are some of the issues: (1) You may not even enter Havasupai territory, much less visit the waterfalls, without a permit. Permits are ONLY available as part of an overnight reservation -- either at the campground or at the Lodge in Supai. The campground is sold out through Feb 28, 2020. The Lodge is sold out through the end of 2020. Getting a reservation for either is extremely difficult. (2) You will need to be prepared to make the hike (8 miles one way to the village; 10 miles to the campground). While there is helicopter service, it is only available a fews days a week, there are no reservations, the wait in line may be many hours, and it may be cancelled without notice due to high winds, weather, or other circumstances. (3) There are no special arrangements made for weddings. You would have to deal with everyone else visiting the waterfalls.

Hello, to plan our visit, how long would it take to see all 4 waterfalls? Can we fit them in 1 day? If not, is it assumed that we would camp there? Or is there a hotel? Thanks so much for helping us plan. :)

First, let's address your question "is it assumed that we would camp there? Or is there a hotel?" You have no choice but to spend the night. No one is allowed to even enter Havasupai territory without a permit obtained in advance -- and permits are available only in conjunction with an overnight stay (at either their campground or their lodge). Reservations at the Lodge are sold out for all of 2018, and almost all of 2019; reservations for 2020 will go on sale on June 1, 2019 (unless things change). Campground permits for 2018 sold out long ago. Permits for 2019 go on sale on February 1, 2019 (unless things change), and sell out so fast you may never get a chance to get one. I specified "unless things change" because things DO change here -- a lot. There are rumors the campground reservations will go on sale sooner, and who knows what will happen with the lodge? The alternative: go with a private outfitter, which has secured the necessary permits, and sometimes includes tents, meals, and guides. The cost generally ranges between $1,200 and $1,800 per person for a two or three night stay. You can sometimes make reservations a mere few months in advance. You also asked "how long would it take to see all 4 waterfalls? Can we fit them in 1 day?" There are more than 4 waterfalls, although interestingly enough, in July of this year, a flash flood reduced Little Navajo Falls to a trickle. I'm guessing you're referring to Fiftyfoot Falls, Little Navajo Falls, Havasu Falls, and Mooney Falls (thus excluding Beaver Falls). Yes, it's possible to visit these four in one day/two nights (starting and ending at either the campground or the lodge). If you meant Fiftyfoot Falls, Havasu Falls, Mooney Falls and Beaver Falls, that's also possible in one really long day, but two days/three nights would be better. Could you do it in just one night? As noted, there is a helicopter, but it won't save time, and it doesn't run every day, andwould still require a minimum stay of one night. You'd need to be very fit to hike to Supai and visit all the waterfalls in one day, spending the night in Supai, then hiking out the next day.
Q:
Can I get to the Village by helicopter?
A:
Yes, you can get a helicopter for around $80-100 per person. It will take you into Supai, which is about 2 miles from Havasu Falls. That is the closest it will take you. I think you just …

Yes, you can get a helicopter for around $80-100 per person. It will take you into Supai, which is about 2 miles from Havasu Falls. That is the closest it will take you. I think you just show up at the trailhead and they go back and forth until everyone's done. Last I heard, you could not make reservations and you should have cash to pay for each person. The trip is only about 10-15 minutes.

Q:
My husband and another couple are going to try to get permits to visit and stay in the campground, or possibly the lodge. however I have many questions such as: How far to hike to the beginning of the trail head to the village? If we wanted to use a mule to carry our stuff in where would the mule pick our stuff up? And how much does it cost? How far is the village with the cafe/ restaurant from the campground and what is the average cost of food and beverages? Thank you in advance
A:
From the parking lot to the village is 7.5-8 miles. Then the campground is another 2-2.5 miles past the village. The mules ate about $80 and they pick up your stiff at the parking lot. …

Hi, trailhead to the village is about 8 miles, then another 1 mile through the village, and around 2 more miles to get to the campground. Depending on where you camp, you could add on another 1/2 mile in the campground. Mules pick up your belongings at the trailhead and drop off at the campground. We didn't use the service, but heard it was $75-$90. They would drop off and pick up at the lodge if you were staying there. The café and grocery store are very close to the lodge. Café prices were reasonable, and a lot of food. Grocery store was high priced. The credit card service did not always work so plan to have cash. Enjoy!!
