Yavapai Observation Station is located at Yavapai Point, between Mather Point and Grand Canyon Village, along the Rim Trail.
 
This overlook also offers some spectacular views of this section of the canyon and you can even glimpse some small portions of the inner canyon, including Phantom Ranch. The Yavapai Observation Station also has some small exhibits describing the geological history of the Grand Canyon, a bookstore which is operated by the Grand Canyon Association and a number picture windows which look out into the canyon. Plaques below each window describe the various scenes at which you are looking.
