Mathews Arm is fantastic! My wife and I have been coming for years, and now have the pleasure of introducing our daughter to the campground. There are so many hikes and trailheads accessible directly from the campground that you hardly have to drive once you arrive. The facilities are also well-maintained and cleaned daily. There is a great mix of people and everyone is always friendly and respectful of quiet hours. We can't wait to return again later this year and in the future!

Needs more bear boxes, we didnt have one on our site. Cell phone service is very weak, but better than Big Meadows, which has none. Bathrooms were decent, but no showers. Not bad, but not a good as Big Meadows or Loft Mountain.

Really nice campground. The trail to the falls is well kept. Tough walk back up from the large falls but worth the effort.

Shenandoah was really pretty, and this is a nice campsite there. Our only big complaint was the noise. One night a group was having some sort of party/function/ritual that was really loud throughout the whole campground. They quiet down at 10pm for quiet hours, but with two little kids I was not happy to have such loud noise so late. We also hadn't been prepared for how loud the local wildlife is at night. There is some sort of frog or insect that makes an incredible amount of noise in the summer.But this was a nice place to start some decent hikes, and we did get to see a bear not too far from the campgrounds. There were plenty of bathrooms, the sites were clean, and it wasn't too crowded.
