Luxe Island Oasis Meets Mediocre Camping

If you don’t know Jekyll Island and somehow stumbled across this fabled Golden Isle of the Georgia barrier islands, you have struck island hopping gold! Seriously, this island is simply amazing and you don’t want to miss your chance to visit this little known Peach State coastal gem. Whether it’s the bare bones skeleton-like abandoned trees you’ll find on Driftwood Beach, a simply superb fishing pier with unmatched sunsets or the ‘roaring twenties’ vibe you’ll experience at the Jekyll Island Club Resort, one thing is certain … when you scratch your head at the shock of having to pay $10 to just get on the island, trust me, within 10 minutes, you will understand that you are going to be getting your money’s worth.

Let’s start with the amazing beaches that are still left remaining after Hurricane Ian wiped out nearly one entire side of the island’s beaches (no joke, just go for a spin in the residential areas where you’ll see big boulders have replaced what used to be white powdered sandy beaches). For starters, there’s more than 10 miles of seaside beach bliss with more than 7 beaches to choose from of which I highly recommend the picturesque Driftwood Beach that so many tourists come here for, where you’ll be able to meander through a labyrinth of whole trees that have washed up on shore here as well as some that have rooted and are starting to grow again. Oceanview Beach Park is perhaps my favorite, if you are coming with the family and looking to grab a great day in the ocean. Whichever beach you choose, you will be amazed by the first-class, well-appointed parking lots, covered pavilions, seemingly brand new wooden decks and pathways, bathrooms and outdoor shower facilities. For a SP, you will definitely feel as though this place is secretly being managed by the good folks from the Ritz Carlton as a pet project!

As for the campground, after being completely blown away by the well-heeled aura of Jekyll Island, I was somewhat disappointed by Jekyll Island’s only campground. While the desk staff that managed the campground were sure nice enough, hospitable and inviting (we are in George afterall), once we got onto the property to find our campground site, we couldn’t help but feel a bit let down. For $36 a night as tent campers, while we enjoyed that each of the primitive campsites had decent privacy, especially when compared to the rest of the wide-open RV-saturated campground, all of the amenities were fairly old, outdated, falling part or very 70's-esque. With only a dozen primitive tent sites, the rest of the entire campground is broken into 7 other sections (B, C, D, E, F, G, H … and T – don’t ask me, I guess the faculty didn’t do well on the old alphabet?) with 167 full hook-up back-in or pull-through sites designed for RVs or 5th Wheelers.

Amenities? Here’s the line-up: free WiFi (that was just OK, but not good enough for streaming), coin-operated laundry room with washers & dryers, covered pavilion / amphitheater, bike rentals, bird sanctuary, scatted clotheslines (be careful when you go for a jog around the campground!), kid’s playground, 2 bathhouses with restrooms and hot / cold water showers, propane refueling station and a fairly decent general store that seemed to have quite a bit, including touristy knick-knacks in addition to basic sundries, RV supplies, ice cream, firewood and some limited groceries. For RVs and 5th Wheelers, there’s back-in and pull-through full hook-ups here offering 30 / 50 amp electricity, water and sewage in addition to Cable TV.

Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) If you can accept that you are at this campground and this alone gives you amazing access to the rest of the island and you’re going to spend the bounty of your time doing just that and don’t give two hoots about the calibre of the campground, you’ll do fine. Just keep those expectations in your pocket and realize that the experience will pay out with what the rest of Jekyll Island has to offer; (2) Of the primitive campsites that are available IMHO the best sites are those on the outer perimeter: J4, J5, J6, J7 and I7, I8; (3) Should you run out of anything, while the market here at the campground is good in a pinch, if you need to stock up and want more variety and / or better prices, then head on over to either the Jekyll Market or The Salt Table on the central west-side of the island (just due south of Great Dunes Park) or if you are a veteran, then the Commissary, otherwise, you’ll have to head north to Brunswick to find any of the usual suspects like Publix, Walmart or Winn-Dixie; (4) When you grow weary of trying to figure out that next meal from either the depths of your Cordova roto-molded cooler or your onboard mini-fridge, you’ll be delighted to discover that there’s actually some AMAZING restaurant offerings that, if you’d like to bike to, like we did, you will be psyched with restaurants like Tortuga Jacks for some pretty good (not great) Mexican with an amazing open-air oceanview cantina, Tribuzio’s Grill for top-notch seafood, The Wharf for succulent fish, fried green tomatoes and ocean crawling crustean as well as Zachary’s Riverhouse, which is low-key and offers up glorified bar food like burgers, wings and sandwiches; and (5) If you are debating about whether or not to bring your bike with you – trust me, DO IT! The bike paths around Jekyll Island are first class, well-paved and are the absolutely best way to see the entire island, which you can easily circumnavigate at pace in under 2 hours.

Happy Camping!

Lots of tree Coverage

Jekyll Island Georgia is my favorite island of all time. The campground, however, can be tight with plenty of mossy oak tree covered lots. Which can leave your roof of your camper a mess? T-Mobile reception was good, with our booster on top of the camper. All restrooms and shower areas were very clean, even though some of them were pretty dated. Campground expansion has been stopped due to lack of workers. Overall, I would definitely come back here again.

Beautiful, full hookups and clean facilities

We had a wonderful time camping the weekend of the golf cart parade on Jekyll Island. The pier was a close bike ride, the entire island has biking trails. Lights were gorgeous for the holiday and campers were in spirit as well. It was a little warm this weekend, and the gnats are NO JOKE. Because of them we likely won’t visit again in the spring, but wait for colder weather.

Large variety of site sizes. Very tight to plenty of room, depends on site.

Jekyll Island Campground is a wonderful park with many pros and cons. There are FHU, 50 amp, pull-thru sites with plenty of room to very tight, hard to get in back-in sites. The better sites are booked up way out, so you have to plan well in advance. Also, there are the mosquitos and sand gnats that do love that area. They're not as bad during the winter months. 

The island provides plenty of activities, attractions and good restaurants (Driftwood Bistro). The island is a bicyclers heaven with miles of bike/walking trails over the whole island. The beaches are beautiful and not crowded. Check out Driftwood Beach.

There are also places to explore off the island, but you do have to pay a daily parking fee each time you enter the island. I would only buy the multi-day pass if you plan on leaving the island and returning everyday of your stay. I would recommend visiting St. Simons Island.

Decent Campground - some sites are much better than others

Jekyll Island is a great place to visit and the campground is good for the most part. We do usually use bathhouses as our trailer is small and the campground showers are usually better. Our campsite was extremely small but we accepted it due to the time we were visiting (was pretty much sold out). At first, it was a big deal but as the sites filled up and we definitely felt cramped. Especially trying to have a fire in the firepit that was right next to the road and getting auto headlights blinding us as they drove buy. We walked around the entire campground and there were a lot better sites than ours, definitely recommend choosing something more towards the back. Hosts were friendly and it was peaceful enough in spite of the crampiness. Would definitely return if getting a different site than we had. Cleaning was regularly done and bathhouse maintained well. Loved the trees for shade.

Winter wonderland of Camping

JICG is easily accessed after paying you parking fee at the Island entrance. Signs lead you back to JICG & they are easy to see & read. Check in was done online & stopping at guard shack as we arrived resulted in super fast final check in. We were escorted to our space(s), and provided written literature with maps & info. Staff was helpful everything we had questions and most everyone knew the area well & gave good advice & directions. Campground is expanding, but construction was not underway during our stay. The new bath house isn't completely ready yet, and the two current bath houses need some improving, but one will be converted to offices when the new bath house opens, so thats The Island has a ton of activities, history, beaches, museums etc to keep everyone busy. We've already rebooted sites for this Spring's 10K...

Beautiful

We tent camped here in May, beautiful scenery, birds woke us up beautifully in the morning. Bugs weren't bad for us. May was the perfect weather, not too hot yet. Easy walk or short drive/bike ride to the pier for fishing and the beach. Driftwood Beach is gorgeous! Easy in, easy out. Would definitely go again. We did get a little intimidated by some raccoons in the middle of the night and some of the RV parking looked a little tight, but other than that it was a 10/10 experience.

Nice But Tight

This campground is in a beautiful setting with lots to see and do close by the park. Paved bicycle trails are all over the island, so if you bring a bike there's no reason to drive your car once you arrive (unless it's rainy). There's plenty of things within walking distance as well.

The campground was neat and well-kept. The only complaint is how close the sites are to each other.

Great location and friendly staff

This park is fantastic, it’s in a great location, friendly and helpful staff, good size camp sites, and decent facilities. This was our first trip in our new to us Airstream. We stayed from Dec 22 - 27. We had plenty of room on our site (F-3) with a 30ft Airstream. Each site has an aluminum picnic table and fire ring on it. The park is pet friendly and a good bit of folks have their pets with them. Our site had full hook ups (sewer, 50 amp, 30 amp) others may vary. The staff is very helpful, when you arrive they great you and take your right to your spot. There is a general store at the camp ground that has the essentials and little more if you forget something. They sell firewood and ice up at the front. The store does close early so if you need something make sure to go before 5. You can still get firewood and ice after 5pm. The public showers and bathrooms were clean but not the most updated. They will do in a pinch!

You are a short bike ride or walk to away to driftwood beach which is stunning all times of the day but has some of the best views for sunrise. The entire island is filled with tons of bike trails that take you along the beach, east river, forest, and town. We stayed at Christmas which makes it extra special. During Christmas you have the tour of lights which is something to see in it self. The Jekyll Island club is also decorated for Christmas and has some seasonal activities. If you are here at Christmas make sure to stop by the club for a drink and listen to the bag piper.

Great place, but they know they are the only game in town.

This is a beautiful campground on a beautiful island. You will not be disappointed with your stay if you choose to visit the island and camp here. That said, many sites are packed into a rather cramped space. Some of this is due to the gorgeous, leaning trees that fill the campground so that must be considered.

Cons:

  • ridiculously overpriced camp store (chunk wood $8 a bag, 1lb propane $13!!!)
  • some fixture hookups for our site were literally on another site (we had to walk onto our neighbor’s site to access water and cable hookups) which leaves cables and hoses all over the place

-cable lines for sites are run above ground just lying on the ground. Looks tacky and is a sign of some general malaise at the campground -bathrooms are rough (countertops falling apart, fans covered with dust, soap dripping on and corroding electricity conduits, etc.) showing another lack of care

Pros: -location! Walkable to fishing pier, Driftwood Beach, historic sites, etc. but secluded nonetheless -natural beauty is stunning -extremely friendly and welcoming staff

Long story short- the rest of the island is immaculate, so this place feels “cheap” by extension. BUT you have to camp here as it is with every penny for the location alone.

We had such a great experience! This campground is tucked away at the end of the island. We took a beautiful walk to the fishing pier and then out to the driftwood beach which was just incredible. A golf cart or bikes are a must if you want to visit the areas many restaurants, parks, natural, and historical sites. They do have adult bikes for rent and a great little store for those easily forgotten items. The site was well maintained when we arrived, everyone (and their pups) were friendly, and the bathrooms were warm and clean.

So many bike trails all around the island! We rode all the way into town and back, stopping at the market and riding over to the historic district was super neat!
