This campground was well arranged to provide large sites, peaceful and the restrooms were exceptionally clean. The park shuttle stops at the entrance to make it easy to get around the park without driving. I would definitely stay at Mather Campground again.

The campground was very clean, and conveniently located in the park.

The weather was good but cold at night. The Elks were around the campsite the 1st night but not the 2nd.

Stayed here for one night with my kids and had a great time. The campground itself was fine, although we were relatively near the main road so could hear traffic driving by regularly. The campsites didn't have water, but wasn't a big issue for us. The campground is very convenient for getting to the rim, with a shuttle stop close nearby. And one of the camp rangers was extremely helpful to us when we arrived for determining out plan while at the Grand Canyon.

Ranger station next to the camp site is extremely well run

Clean, spacious camp ground with trees to hang hammocks and flat areas for tents. We were super comfy and didn’t feel too cramped or close to other sites.

Great campground with clean bathrooms and spacious sites! Everyone was respectful and quiet - no crazy loud generators or bright lights once the sun went down.
