Easy walk to the Canyon Rim from the campground. The hiking trails are paved and dog-friendly, just make sure you bring something to pick up after your furry friends. Beautiful views of the Canyon.

Allocated sites on a series of ine way roads. Bays on either side of the kne way road. If in an RV ensure to book a site on the correct side of the road.

Toilets are clean and flush. Not long drops.

Rubbish skips spread around.

Good reasonable rules to ensure everyone's enjoyment.

Pretty cool site!!

Despite its size, this campground offers large, fairly private sites. Easy access to shuttle buses and parking lots, visitor center, grocery store etc.

Love this campground in the forest! Spacious sites, well signposted. No hookups but toilets available. Each site has a table and fire pit too. It’s lovely. There is a shuttle bus stop just outside, and the camp services with dump, water, laundry and showers is great! Would highly recommend.

Nice campground in pine trees forest. Very popular and pretty crowded. Trailer/RV sides are small and on the paved road. It's better for tent camping. Restrooms are clean and well maintained. Shower does cost extra (2.50USD). Shuttle bus stop next to the campground.

Pretty Great

✅ Great Location– Just a short drive or shuttle ride to the canyon's main viewpoints.✅ Spacious Sites– Well-maintained campsites with picnic tables, fire rings, and plenty of space for tents.✅ Clean Facilities– Restrooms with flush toilets and potable water available throughout the campground.✅ Wildlife& Nature– Expect to see elk wandering around and enjoy the peaceful forest setting.✅ Affordable– A budget-friendly option compared to lodges while still being close to all major attractions.

Good spot for your visit to the Grand Canyon. Unfortunately there is not water located at the sites for washing dishes, etc.

Really big campground with alot of bathrooms throughout. Make sure to read site descriptions as some spots are very short. Showers and laundry is available at camper services. Showers cost $2.50 for 5 mins.

We spent two nights back in end of May in our campervan and it was the perfect camping experience. Bathrooms were scattered around the campsite and close by. Showers were hot located at the main office with laundry, all coin operated. Elk were at the water station which was so cool! We had our own fire pit and picnic table. FYI if you travel in May- pack warm clothes for nighttime. It dropped into the 40s at night outside and we were very cold. Also the general store was a couple min drive away, great selection of merch and groceries. The butcher has great quality meat for sale, the burgers were amazing. Starbucks is in the lodge next door for a special treat :) There’s also a free shuttle service from the camp to different lookouts/trails around the Grand Canyon

Spots are a little close but quiet and clean. Fire pit and picnic table included. Flush toilets nearby. Showers and laundry mat at the entrance.

LOTS of tree coverage. Can hang a hammock. Sites are big and not on top of each other. Central to everything on the south rim. And friendly to people on big trips that are wandering.. they always seem to have a site for you, the rangers are exceptional. And don’t feed the fat squirrel at the visitor center… he lies, he can find his own food.

The initial camping trip and fell in love with it

After spending three nights at Trailer Village, we moved to this campground for the next two nights. It is so much better and affordable so if you don’t need hookups, this is the better choice! (but be aware there is a 30-foot limit).

Sites are all paved, some are pull-thru and some back-in. Not all are completely level, but we made it work in Site 5. 

The bathroom was basic but clean and had an ADA-accessible stall. Certainly in better shape than the one in Trailer Village! If you need showers or laundry, both are close by in Camper Services. Didn’t use either during our stay but nice to know they are there. 

You can catch the shuttle bus to various points in the park at the entrance to the campground. Shout out to Ranger Diego at the check-in window – had a great conversation with him! 

Wherever you decide to stay in the park, make sure you make reservations in advance– it was completely full on a weekday in early April (and we woke up to snow!).

Stayed in Mather proper for two nights and Trailer Village for one. Both require reservations well in advance even in late October. Both were full. It was cold (24 degrees in the morning) and lots of campfires were burning. Nice shower and laundry facilities. Centrally located and within easy access to the shuttle buses. Pretty close quarters for my style of camping but tolerable.

Generally the spots are pretty close together and you can see the road in many places (definitely from our spot!). Bathrooms are nice, including a water spigot and dish area. There’s a shower and laundry spot at the front of the campground and the check-in/out process was easy!

The no generation loop (juniper) was pretty quiet, and it was surprisingly rainy and cool during our visit. Close to the visitor center, shuttles, market area, and a short drive to the Grand Canyon village

We arrived here on a road trip through AZ to find that the sign said full. When we asked though the host checked some things and found a spot for us thank God.

It is a massive campsite right in Grand Canyon park. There are multiple loops and each site has a nice little campsite with a pull in, table, fire pit, etc. Bathrooms and showers here as well.

The sites are close together but you can't beat the proximity to the rim and village. There is a bus stop out front of the campsite that can take you wherever you need in the Grand Canyon village as well. Super convenient.

On my next road trip I will definitely book this site ahead of time. 9/10 recommend

We did group camping at site 6 in the Sage Loop. Site was spacious with great stone picnic tables and plenty of room. Adjacent to horse site but wasn’t an issue. Bathrooms with toilets were close but showers were very far and pricey at $2.50 for 5 min. The campground is very dark which is great for star gazing but tricky for getting around at night.

If you want to camp relatively close to the rim of the Grand Canyon, this is the spot. For “car camping” these are very spacious sites, all close proximity to a nearby restroom with flushing toilets, and also drinking water. Near the main entrance to the campground is a shower and laundry facility, should you need them. And a roughly 15-20 min walk to the rim. Or catch one of the frequent free shuttles. Also frequent elk wander the area and often pass right through your site.

Campin

Beautiful campground inside GC park. Quite and clean. No hookups. Easy access to sites inside park. Sites spread out nicely.

Stayed 4 nights at juniper loop ADA site 130. Primitive and cold! Some camp sites open into the road to be careful choosing. Lots to do here, hiking and sightseeing. Elk come right into your campsite! Laundry facilities were spacious. Opted out of the pay showers as heard lots of complaints on people paying and getting no water. Overall I highly recommend camping here.

Well treed, nice benches and fire rings. Pavement looks new and perfect. Tight navigation for bigger rigs.

Sites are packed in tight, but they all seem to have tree barriers surrounding them, which helps.

Convenient to the village which has a full supermarket. Bus routes close by, too.

Lots of Elk!

Great park, friendly service, and right where we needed to be for us to be ready to go explore the Grand Canyon. We visit in January and it snowed. It was stunning.

If you can I would absolutely reserve a place here for your trip to the Grand Canyon. We loved it! The location couldn't have been more perfect. The staff was so friendly, the facilities were clean and the showers were hot! There is potable water in many locations around the whole property. Fire pits and picnic tables at every site. We hope to be back for more than one night next time!

These are perfect little spots to set up for the night. Each seems to have their own fire ring with a grate, a nice table, and place for a tent or two. Very close to the camp services (showers and laundry) as well as the general market (easy place to pick up food or firewood). The spots are very close together, but it isn't overly loud

Very quiet , a lot of space. Everything is well maintained and the rangers are super nice.
