    Lake Harmony RV Park

    Would definitely stay again

    This park is gorgeous. We have a wonderful view of the water, they took us to our pull in site and the price was great. It’s very roomy and quiet. Office people were very nice and welcoming. Our view for the next 16 days is gorgeous. About 28 min to Brunswick which we absolutely love as we’ve been in the area before. Highly recommend this park. We didn’t use the laundry or restrooms so can’t speak to that.

    Pros & cons

    I evacuated here for Hurricane Milton. Easy to get to & to get into. Staff have been friendly. Very basic park. Pros are concrete pad, tall shrubbery walls between most spaces, lovely lake w/boardwalk, dog poo bag stations, full hookups, small pool & laundry facilities (did not use). Cons are the concrete pads are narrow in most spots only wide enough to park, picnic tables are badly dated wood, grill on site was filthy & old, lots of dog poo around despite available bags, lake seemed to have a moderate amount of litter, lots of traffic noise from the highway & the dog area is TINY. However, I did feel very safe here, there’s a Winn Dixie 1 mile away & a dollar store. They have propane on site.

    Camping closed for now - 5 stars in order to review

    I tried to get reservations on the state park website and kept getting an error message. On further investigation it appears they closed in Feb 2024 because of erosion. I'll keep checking and will update this review if/when they reopen.

    Level concrete sites, pull through, only used electric. Did not use bathhouse or restroom facilities. Heard no road noise due to little air conditioner, running. Nice waffle breakfast in the Econo Lodge, which is adjacent. $54. Aug 18, 2024

    Nice place but…

    We enjoyed our stay. The facilities were clean but there were a few things that I wouldn’t mind seeing improved or changed. But none that would stop me from coming back.

    The lake is fairly small they do not have a no wake rule or HP limit. So if you go out in a kayak or canoe and there is just one boat pulling a tube you should expect a rough day on the water.

    Our site really could use to be refurbed with a more defined site boundary and picnic area.

    Site 19 is a bit tight to back in but it’s doable.

    Horne Lake RV Park

    It’s Quick. It’s Easy. But It’s Not Your Only Option.

    OK, I get it. Maybe it’s late at night, you’ve been on the road for hours (if not days) and maybe you’ve even got little ones who just need to get some fresh air. We’ve all been there, so maybe it’s late one night and you are contemplating whether or not to layover here at Horne Lake RV Resort. Perhaps it’s dark out and pure exhaustion is about to set in, so you shrug your shoulders and are about to decide to spend the night. But wait, just hold onto that thought a little longer.

    My personal advice would be to look at some of the other nearby campgrounds and RV parking lots around and chose a better spot. Trust me, there’s quite a few GOOD ones to choose from, but hey, if you’re too tired and just don’t care, well, then this place won’t kill you. Plus, it’s dark at night, so you probably won’t see what a borderline nasty spot this actually is. That said, be weary of all the bad roads as you drive through this little highway roadside campground spot, which has one small loop that is jam-packed with other road weary travelers like yourself driving either a big rig or RV.

    From an amenities standpoint, there’s not much, however, there is a small community pool and firepit along with a propane refilling station as well as a little joint that serves as a storefront / restaurant, although I wasn’t enticed to eat there. All of the basic amenities are provided: 30 & 50 amp electrical, water and sewage lines. The sites are all paved, albeit not terribly well, and oh, there’s a community laundry facility on site, but the dilapidated conditions of the units were enough to keep us away from using them. Beyond this, not much else to say about the place.

    Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) If you missed it somehow on the first go around, don’t stay here, unless you have no other viable options, but per my suggestion, there’s a number of other places far better and much easier to pull up and drop anchor at than this roadside dump; (2) If you are looking for somewhere to dip the beak of your kayak or canoe, then just head due north where right at the GA / FL state-line you’ll be able to explore the very wonderfully dark St. Mary’s River, which if you follow it easterly, you’ll eventually be greeted by the Atlantic Ocean after first passing Fort Clinch State Park (a great place to park your RV BTW) on the right; and (3) When you grow weary of trying to figure out that next on-board meal from the depths of your mini-fridge, then head on over into St. Mary’s on the GA side where you can find a number of great foodie digs like The Green Room Sicilian Café & Deli, Horse & Cow Pub & Grill as well as McGarbey’s Wee Pub South.

    Happy Camping!

    Jekyll Island Campground

    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!

    Time slows down here

    This review is for CRSP Cottage 10, a 2 bedroom, 4 bed, 1 bath, pet friendly house down a quiet road within the park. The park staff at the gift shop were very kind and engaged. They collected our balance and $50.00 pet fee there. Not all cottages are pet friendly. Cottage 10 is...so plan ahead! Despite that, there was 0 smell when we entered the cottage. It was very clean! Exceptional view of Crooked River! Our family of four loved s’mores under the stars and twisted coastal trees. There is a jumbo picnic table and fire pit. Carrying meals out was no issue and so much less exhausting than cooking on the Coleman stove and dealing with gear and tents. That’s also a fun experience, but coming back to AC and a private bathroom after a full day of hiking Cumberland Island is worth the nightly price tag. One day it poured. We comfortably watched the storm from the cozy screened-in porch. The kitchen is well stocked, minus a cutting board. No biggie. Made do. I always travel with a reliable and sharpened kitchen knife, kitchen scissors, and my trusty cast iron pan. But I was surprised to find supplies at the cottage like paper towels, toilet paper, and dish washer pods. The beds are comfortable and the linens and towels are clean and plentiful. It was a great experience and we would love to return.

    Fun stay

    Fun campground with many organized events. Currently, most sites are full-time campers. The current transient spots are a bit tight. The owner is very active in upgrading and improving his amazing business. My husband and I stayed for two weeks. During our stay, we ate several times at the restaurant, Fish Tales. Fantastic food and great environment. Staff is friendly and treats you like part of the family. The owner and manager were quite frequently seen running food, helping staff and campers. Daily food specials, entertainment several times a week, beautiful outside seating, pool area, two dog parks, showers/bathrooms and a huge expansion project to offer many more sites. I would absolutely stay here again!

    Walkabout Camp & RV Park

    Just ok

    It had rained quite a bit for days, so it was nasty. Sites too close together for my taste. Not much shade. We only stayed for one night, so we did not explore the place.

    Coastal GA RV Resort

    Great stay

    Easy on easy off. Very quiet, considering you’re right near the road.  Nice long pull through sites.  Very private sites with shrubs around your site.  Concrete slab for the motorhome to park on .Clean restrooms, hot showers. Very reasonable rates $62 a night.  we normally stay at the KOA down the road but we refuse to pay $118 for a graveled pull through site.

    Blythe Island Regional Park

    Great Location ,Ferocious Bugs,Horrible bath House,Raucous Racoon and Opossum !!!

    We booked here for the proximity to Brunswick… we will come back to the Golden Isle but do not plan on coming back to Blythe Island… The morning mosquitos were the worst I have ever experienced!!! An Opossum broke into our closed lid dog food container which an all too domesticated Racoon caught wind of…The bathrooms top the top of the worst ever an I have camped for over 40 years…The bunnies and geese were a treat..,

    Kelly's Countryside RV Park

    Slice of the goodness

    3/4s of the way through the 2nd winter with Patty and her crew. The campground is very well kept. All issues are addressed immediately. And the friendliest staff you could ask for. Events are planned several times a month. With a mix of full, part-time, and temporary guests all invited. Sites include water, electrical and sewer. Access to the campground is very easy, just off Hwy 1. This is definitely my 1st choice. We stayed November through March.

    Jekyll Island Campground

    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.

    Beauty

    Crooked River is a beautiful park! Big sites, huge pull thrus, some have FHU. Lots of walking, and biking. Sites are gravel and very level. Clean restrooms, showers, and laundry. Good size store. Has putt putt, boat ramps, and trees. Very quiet and friendly hosts. Firewood is $9 bundle, but 10 pieces. .75 cubic foot. GREAT place. Some sites have water view.

    Oak Hill RV Park

    No Frills RV Pasture

    By no means is Oak Hill RV Park a campground destination, but if you’re hauling your mobile living room behind you and simply need a place to park for the night, then there could be worse places on the map to discover. Located just due south of the Georgia– Florida stateline, Oak Hill is situated midway between Boulogne (which, curiously, does not translate to Bologna in ANY language) and Andrews on Route 1 just a stone’s throw from a nice four line highway (read: you’ll be lulled to sleep each night by the swooshing of passing traffic). 

    As for the barren lot itself, while flat, it is also quite unimaginative with a singular pebble-strewn entranceway and ample barren non-marked lanes that are perfect for RV’s of all size. You’ll discover that the basic RV hook-ups (water, electric, waste), but that’s about where the amenities run out. OK, there is satellite TV, but that likely will cost you a bit extra. There’s even a country store on the premises, in the event that you need anything (although I would caution – they have but just the basics). The only other merit to this place is that there really are some gorgeous ancient Oaks completely drenched in Spanish moss, but that wears thin after about 10 minutes. 

    Insider’s tips? Apart from arriving late and departing early, if you are stuck in this spot for a bit of time, I’d recommend a quick jaunt to nearby Hampton Lake for some (just OK) fresh water fishing. If you’ve got more time though, I would highly recommend getting on St. Mary’s River (a great access point, BTW, is St. Mary’s River Fishcamp (yes, spelled in 1 word) & Campground, which I have also reviewed) for some fairly decent fishing. 

    Happy Camping!
