Natural Features
Mather Campground lies beneath a mixture of a tall canopy of Ponderosa pine, Pinyon, and Juniper trees, providing most campsites with ample shade. The campground is one mile from the rim of the canyon. A visit to the canyon during sunrise and sunset yields spectacular views of yellow, orange, red and violet hues in the canyon walls. Layers of rock display billions of years of geologic history. Campers can take a short shuttle bus ride from the campground to the Visitors Center. Visitors can also visit Yavapai Geology Museum, where they learn about the forces that formed the canyon. Below, visitors can see the mighty Colorado River, which flows 277 miles through the bottom of the canyon. Wildlife abounds on the South Rim, including elk, mule deer, coyotes, lizards, songbirds and the endangered California condor. Although condors nest below the rim, they can be seen soaring several thousand feet above the canyon in search for carrion.
Nearby Attractions
Numerous visitor centers, restaurants, museums and shops are within a shuttle bus ride from the campground. Beyond the village, Desert View provides one of the widest views of Grand Canyon and the Painted Desert. The Desert View Watchtower displays the talent of architect Mary Jane Colter. Tusayan Ruin and Museum provide glimpses into the life of a small Ancestral Puebloan village 800 years ago. Both are within 25 miles from the campground.

5430 Snow Bowl
Be the first to review!Flagstaff, Arizona7 Photos8 SavesWe are not a traditional campground. We are a gorgeous pine tree 3 acre homestead that we are opening up for campers. Our mission is to make camping simple and affordable for those wanting to check out beautiful Flagstaff but not have to purchase all the gear. Get the kids out of the house and off the phones... all you need is your clothes, overnight bag, and food/drinks.
We rent 2 RVs and can set up tents for those that would like to experience tent camping. The RVs are approx. 30 ft with slide and fully equipped with bedding, towels, dishes, pots/pans, and coffee maker. The RVs are spaced far apart so more privacy and quiet. Please note: we are currently not set up for you to bring along your own RV.
We are also offering open air corral panel stalls for those who want to bring their horses. Pets welcome (must be well behaved). Availability is limited since we only have 2 units and a few tents, so book now to reserve. We are in a fabulous location close to town and all that Flagstaff has to offer, but set in the trees for the tranquility and pines.
