Built nearly 100 years ago, the remote lodge offered majestic views of one of our finest national parks before it burned in the Dragon Bravo Fire.

The Grand Canyon Lodge in far northern Arizona that was an elusive getaway for nearly a century has been destroyed by a wildfire.

With the Grand Canyon Lodge lost to the wildfire, lodging options on the North Rim are less clear. Farther up Grand Canyon Highway is Kaibab Lodge, which has become a temporary base for firefighters and hasn’t yet been hit by the fires, owner Larry Innes said in an interview with a local CBS affiliate.

The lodge opened in 1937 and was the only hotel inside the national park's boundaries on the North Rim. It was a National Historic Landmark.
