Wonderful location with easy access to the shower/laundry facilities, the general store, the post office, and the busses to the Canyon Rim. I do wish they would limit the check-in hours at night, as I had travelers arrive at the campsite next to mine after 11pm and spend the next 2 hours illuminating my campsite with their car headlights as they set up their camp. Ruined my stargazing and prevented me from being able to fall asleep.

We camped for two nights in site #290. It was spacious and flat and there was a lot of open space between the tent site and the road in back of the campground which was awesome. This also made it easy to access the shuttle. It was early March with sub freezing temperatures at night - the campground was not full. Bathrooms were clean. We would stay at this site again or at least on this loop as it is designed for tents/vehicles without generators, and it was quiet.

From the moment we arrived we had absolutely no problems checking in, finding out campsite and setting up our tent. At that time we were able to start relaxing and then exploring the South Rim.

We have stayed at Mather Campground many time over the last 20 years. This stay in Pine Loop was very pleasant. The site was on the edge of the campground so there were only sites on one side and clear forest on the other. Pine Loop is close to the RV Park so there is some noise from large RV's entering and leaving on a nearby access road. however there are no generators allowed in this loop so it was quieter than any of the others. The shower block at the "Camper Services" near to the entrance of the campground has deteriorated somewhat. Water pressure is non-existant and they no longer provide soap or shampoo. Despite this, Mather is a very good campground providing easy access to all GC facilities.

We camped here for a night before hiking into the canyon. We were starting on South Kaibab early, so we went to bed early, but we really liked the location of the campsite and the proximity to the visitor center

Mather is one of the best campgrounds in the lower 48.

Great trip, great campsite, only draw back was no shower near our campsite. Otherwise wonderful.

Campgrounds are well kept, our spot was large and we were able to set up tent towards back area away from others for a more private area.
