This is an overnight trip and you need to make accommodations in advance but if you have the time, in my opinion, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon is the best. Located near Jacob Lake in Ponderosa Pines... there is just something extra majestic from this view. And when you drive thru Jacob Lake, stop at the restaurant/gas station and get some of their cookies.
