No doubt that one of your reasons for visiting Williams is to take in the sights of The Grand Canyon. The Grand Canlyon can be flooded with tourists and parking can be tight. So we recommend that you see this wonderous sight with a tour with long-time guide Marvelous Marv (Sign up right at our check-in desk!). Williams, however, has a lot more to offer that might make it worth your time to stay a day or two more.
Let our friendly, knowledgeable staff guide you to all of the local route 66 events, rodeos, horseback riding, fishing and other activies around Williams and Valle. Ask us about Al's Mobile RV Repair for your maintenance needs.
In October of 1984, Williams became the last route 66 town to be by-passed by I-40. That hasn't diminished the romantic image of the mother road and Williams is often used as a back drop for car shows, motorcyle rallies (such as Run-for-the-wall) and other route 66 activities. Join us for parades on holidays, such as Fourth of July and Mountain Village Holiday.
The Kaibab aspens at Buckskinner Park overlook one of the popular fishing spots in Williams. Another popular local spot is the Santa Fe Dam within walking distance of Buckskinner Park. Travel south on Grand Canyon Blvd. to Railroad Avenue, turn right and go to 6th street. Turn left onto 6th street and go south and it will lead straight into the entrance of Bucskinner Park. Take care following the rustic Buckskinner trail to Buckskinner lake.
Turn left on 4th Street and follow it straight up to Santa Fa Dam, which will be on your right.
