We had a nice stay in our tent. This campground is perfect for riding bikes and getting to the ocean quickly.
All this place needs is a pool. but there is a water park on the island. great bike trails. Take the carriage ride through the historic district.
Jekyll Island is very bike and runner friendly. The island is not over developed but still has a few restauants, stores and places tonhave a few drinks. The campground is very shady and has alot of beautiful oak trees. The campsites for campers have power, water and sewage and are all pretty level. the bathrooms are clean and in good locations.
We have a SUV tent and booked two nights at the campground and absolutely enjoyed our time there, in fact we stayed until 5 minutes before the noon check out. Driftwood Beach was a 10 minute walk from the campground and we were able to find sand dollars at low tide. We also brought our road bikes and biked the islandceach day we were there, about a 18 mike ride. Walked to the Horton House to watch the sunset over the Intercoastal Waterway. Would definitely recommend this campsite to everyone. You do need to pay a $6 parking fee/day so make sure you bring your groceries with you.

I visited this campground in Spring of 2009 with a large group of friends/campers. It is across from the driftwood beach. The sites are very well shaded under a tree canopy with full hookups. There is a laundry facility and general store. Besides visiting the beach, you can ride bikes on wide trails/paths to see the hotel & cool historical mansions on the island or go on a tour. There is also a turtle rehab center. Apparently there is a water park on jekyl island now which I don't remember being there back then.
