Traders Hill Campground

The info including the phone number and much more on this site is wrong . Plus the county has been upgrading the facilities. If you would like a reservation please call us at 912-390-9288 I don’t know who puts this out there but a lot of this info is wrong and you can call me or the county for more information .

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!

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