Nice Campground with many sites with enough shadow.

Is a great if busy campground. People were respectful with lights and noise. Facilities were clean and overall a great time at the Grand Canyon!

Our family really enjoyed our experience! Everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful. We got to enjoy seeing many many wild elk. Absolutely gorgeous!! We can't wait to come back same time next year with our extended family. Thinking of making it a new family tradition of our own.

Very good campground for such a popular spot. Big spot, clean toilets, friendly stuff. We had a perfect night!

Great host / ranger at check in, Our site (Aspen loop, 12) was a little exposed but we only stayed one night before heading for two nights below the rim. The cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen at a NPS campground (they're always pretty clean though) and water available at sink near bathroom (spigot near campsite was not on).

Facilities are well kept and easy access to all the nice walking/hiking trails and picturesque locations.

Overall the Mather campground experience was above average but I gave it a 'good' rating because of the very limited shower/laundry access. On Monday Oct 18 we showed up after lunch to take showers but it was closed already. It was very frustrating as there is no other means to shower.
In general service in the park was not good compared to past visits because of understaffing. I hope the park can secure more employees soon.

Lovely stay - nice size sites, easy access to bathrooms, and unbeatable location.

Great place to camp. Cost is cheap and the facilities are clean and adequate.
