Riverside Camping Oasis

OK, this place is somewhat dated and trapped in a bit of a time warp (just look at the group shelter with all the picnic tables) like you just woke up in a Space Odyssey, but the primitive camping grounds are fairly excellent, flat and have some decent scenery around it. Insider’s tip? I highly recommend one of the campsites on the west side of the grounds, where you’ll be somewhat shielded from the rest of the campers. What’s great about this place is that the tent campers have their own area and the RV’ers, well, have their pebble-strewn driveways that butt up to God’s green nature on the other side – so as far as ‘eye soars’ go, you’ll have to look hard to find the parking lot variety of campers here. The restroom facilities… wait for this… are absolutely horrendous though. I wouldn’t wash my pets in that filthy bathroom! But if you can get past this blight, the most brilliant part about these grounds is the amazing water access to St. Mary’s River. All of the basic amenities exist here for RV’ers – water, electric and sewer lines. For tent campers, there’s really nothing apart from the ground you plant your tent on. There is a small market on the grounds, but it was closed the whole time we were onsite. Insider’s tip? If you have either a canoe or kayak, be sure to bring it, but due to the alligators in the area, be sure to leave your 'floaties' and inner-tubes behind!

Happy Camping!

Great spot and great folks

Friendly owners, good tenting, hammock and RV spots, just right down the road from the Okefenokee NWR.

Good location, a little worn down

Woodsy sites, only about 12, but getting in was no prob. There was no on site host at the time & we had to leave a message when trying to book, but a nice guy came thru & checked on us/collected fee. Bathroom/shower house REALLY worn down, vandalized, but we managed. Good access to east side Okefenokee for kayaking. There was only 1 other camper there.
