Designed by architect Mary Jane Colter, the lodge is a complex of cabins around a central lodge building, directly on the edge of the canyon. The rustic lodge complex is a major contributing structure in the Grand Canyon Village National Historic Landmark District. HistoryThe first accommodation at the location was established by James Thurber in 1896 at the head of the Bright Angel Trail leading into the canyon. Thurber ran a stagecoach line from the Grandview area to this new location to the west in 1896, building a small wood-frame hotel. At about the same time, Buckey O'Neill built his cabin nearby, calling it O'Neill's Camp. Thurber acquired the O'Neill cabin at about the time O'Neill died in Cuba during the Spanish–American War. Thurber expanded the operation, establishing a tent camp for tourists and calling the complex the Bright Angel Hotel and the Bright Angel Camps.[1] Thurber sold the Bright Angel operation to Williams, Arizona hotelier Martin Buggeln, in time for the Grand Canyon Railroad to be completed to the South Rim in September. The railroad, which claimed most of the lands at the South Rim, including the Bright Angel site, cooperated with Buggeln while the railroad's El Tovar Hotel was being built immediately to the east of the Bright Angel Hotel, then bought out Buggeln when the new hotel was completed in 1905. The railroad renovated the older hotel and built cabins to replace the tents.[1] In contrast to the lodgings at the El Tovar, which were marketed as a destination hotel, the Bright Angel facilities were aimed at a middle-class market.[2] The Red Horse Station was originally built as a stage coach stop about {{convert|16|mi|km}} south of the South Rim. When the railroad was extended to the South Rim, Ralph Cameron disassembled the post and moved it to the South rim and rebuilt it just to the west of the Buckey O'Neill Cabin in 1902, adding a wood frame second floor to the log first floor and calling it Cameron's Hotel. From 1907 it housed the park's post office.[3] By the 1930s the Bright Angel operation needed renovation. The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, which owned the Grand Canyon Railroad and the South Rim concessions, asked architect Mary Colter to design a replacement. Colter's initial designs resembled her Hermit's Rest and Lookout Studio structures, both located nearby. The Park Service did not approve of such extensive use of stone for the new lodgings, and Colter revised the design to wood frame construction, Colter kept the O'Neill Cabin and the Red Horse Cabin (removing its incongruous second floor) and replaced the tent cabins with new rustic cabins of log and local stone construction, completed in 1935. Colter took particular pains to integrate the new complex into the landscape, using a scale model to study the design.[1][4] DescriptionThe lodge is a large structure with a simple shallow-pitched gable roof. The roof overhangs at the main entry to form a gabled porch supported by peeled log posts. Colter used shed-roofed appendages to create a layered effect for the mass of the main lodge. Interior finishes included hand-adzed logs, adobe and local limestone. The stone fireplace materials reproduce the strata found in the Grand Canyon along the Bright Angel Trail in their correct sequence from bottom to top.[5] The semi-detached cabins are laid out in the space between the lodge and the canyon's rim, with some directly overlooking the canyon. Cabins were furnished with antiques and reproductions hand-picked by Colter. The lodge's cocktail lounge features murals by Hopi artist Fred Kabotie.[5] Historic designationThe Bright Angel Lodge and cabins are significant contributing structures in the Grand Canyon Village National Historic Landmark District. The historic district was expanded in 1982 to include the Bright Angel Lodge and its cabins. It had initially been left out of the nomination as it had not yet reached the 50-year age threshold, but the 1982 nomination made plain that the Bright Angel complex had such exceptional significance that it was worthy of waiving the 50-year requirement.[4][6] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|last=Anderson|first=Michael F.|title=Bright Angel Hotel & Lodge|url=http://grandcanyonhistory.clas.asu.edu/sites_southrim_brightangellodge.html|publisher=Arizona State University/Grand Canyon Association|accessdate=15 November 2011|year=2008}} 2. ^{{cite web|last=Gerke|first=Sarah Bohl|title=Bright Angel Cabins|url=http://grandcanyonhistory.clas.asu.edu/sites_southrim_brightangelcabins.html|publisher=Arizona State University/Grand Canyon Association|accessdate=15 November 2011|year=2008}} 3. ^{{cite web|last=Gerke|first=Sarah Bohl|title=Red Horse Station/Cameron's Hotel|url=http://grandcanyonhistory.clas.asu.edu/sites_southrim_redhorsestation.html|work=Nature, Culture and History at the Grand Canyon|publisher=Arizona State University/Grand Canyon Association|accessdate=17 November 2011|year=2008}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|last=Chappell|first=Gordon|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory - Nomination Form: Grand Canyon Village Historic District|url={{NRHP url|id=75000343}}|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=17 November 2011|date=May 10, 1975}} 5. ^1 NRHP nomination, continuation sheet, p. 8 6. ^{{cite web|last=Scott|first=Michael P.|title=National Historic Landmark Nomination: Grand Canyon Village|url={{NHLS url|id=95001226}}|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=16 November 2011 |author2=Chappell, Gordon |author3=Jackson, Robbyn |author4=Donahoe, Jamie |author5=Begley, Susan |author6=Carr, Ethan|date=September 13, 1996}} External links{{commons category|Bright Angel Lodge}}
