"Jekyll Island County Park is located at the northern end of Jekyll Island, a barrier island at the halfway point along the Georgia Coast. "
"This campground is in a beautiful setting with lots to see and do close by the park."
"They confirm but only assign you a site on arrival- you cannot choose it
Our campsite consisted of a hard packed sand "driveway" and a concrete pad next to it."
"Lake front view. (Sites 1-10 are lakefront view. I like #4 best) Sites are quite close to each other but well landscaped with trees and foliage between. All sites heavily shaded."
"Great areas to walk your dog, nice pond adjacent to park ( no swimming due to aligators) but lots of activity, fish, turtles, birds, etc. Winn Dixie, liquor, fuel etc nearby. "
"The location is not fancy, but the park has adequate and clean facilities including; 3 bath houses, 3 laundry facilities, a dog park, clubhouse & pool."
"A clean and well maintained RV park located right next to I-95 in Georgia for those looking for a quick in and out overnight stay."

$35 - $40 / night
"Lake side grassy sites, with plenty of room. Quaint with swimming and fishing. Lake side patios with fireplaces. Free fire wood for your campfires. Reasonable rates"
"Beautiful little campground where nearly every site has a view of the largeish fishing lake. All sites are natural with no pad, but full hook up. The wifi is good and the staff are cordial."

"Absolutely beautiful, complete with bathrooms and many adirondacks to keep supplies dry, the campsite is a 3 to 5 minute walk away from both a beautiful beach and amazing marsh. Highly recommend."
"Established fire pit, large covered pavilion with multiple picnic tables, electrical hookups located within pavilion and a shower house equip with sinks and toilets. Walking distance to the beach."
"So drive very mindfully. Overall, it's a fantastic spot, and we hope it reopens soon so we can visit again!"
GuideThis turned out to be one of our favorite campgrounds (on a trip between Philadelphia and Savannah). We loved to be immersed in nature and like to discover wildlife. We saw deer, racoon, opossum and armadillo at Fort Mc Allister. Off course there are also lots of bugs and mosquitos that is the downside of this swampy jungle. Campground has nice spots, full hook up available, good shower facilities and not to far to combine with a Savannah visit (very nice town by the way).
GuideStayed for three nights at the upper Fort Clinch sites, there are six tent sites and a good number of RV spots.
Check-in is 3 PM but the ranger station closes at 5 and gates lock shortly after. I called in advance and received a gate code. Ranger station only opens at 10:30 so I didn't see them for my entire stay, but very nice folks on the phone.
Tent sites provide water no power. RV sites are a mix, have to check individual site description. Free dump site.
Bathrooms are big, clean, with toilet paper and hand soap.. Showers are free and decent. Coin laundry available.
Tent site was relatively level, be careful to stay inside the "corral," I went out (but not past the protected area sign) and got bit by cacti.
Beach is lovely and quiet.
Heat index was over 100 so didn't do much hiking, but this was a really nice place to spend a few nights. I do wonder if the river campsites on the other side of the park might be cooler and offer hammock opportunities.
Park is huge, lots to explore when weather permits.
Lots of bugs but basic precautions handled it. There was also a turtle burrow behind the tent site, and saw a bunch of little deer!
ScoutThe camp ground is very clean and kept up with they staff is very accommodating and pleasant to deale with even though we were just passing through for one night the lake is very pretty
GuideI really like this State Park for tent camping. It's right next to the beach, very clear facilities, and great (unshaded) tent sites.
Will definitely stay here again.
TravelerCampground is super clean and friendly staff. Love having the resort like pool/lazy river/splash pad.
Sites are packed in pretty well, but they do a good job dividing them off from one another so it doesn't feel too cramped. Unfortunately not a lot of shade to be found.
Sites are angled so it makes backing in a breeze! And the concrete pad was almost perfectly level which made setup so quick!
GuideWe stayed one night with a tent, and our main priorities were having a reliable Starlink connection and 110V power at the site. This campground delivered both— no issues with connectivity.
I specifically chose a site with a clear view of the sky to the NNE, and it worked perfectly. The tent sites are definitely oversized and offer zero privacy, but for our needs— a quick overnight stop with internet and power— it was a great fit.
LegendThis is a nice State Park campground with about 50 sites. There are 2 pull through sites, and 2 full hook up sites. The rest are back in with water & electric. The sites are level b but there are done tight turns. Sites are also very close together, so very little privacy. There is a big lake with a swimming beach dispute signs everywhere warning of alligators! There is also a big picnic area with several shelters and. Playground, which includes some adult cardio equipment. The dog park is large, with two sections and grass. The showers and bathrooms are clean and modern. This is a convenient place for exploring Okefenokee Swamp. The private Swamp park is only 20 minutes away, and the National Wildlife Refuge is about an hour. Both offer boat tours of the swamp.
GuideThe camping area is very small, with sites close to each other and no privacy (flat area, tall pines without vegetation between sites). Having said that, it was pretty quiet; mostly used by retirees. It has a cute dog park, with areas for large and small pups. It has clean bathrooms and washer dryer that accepts apple pay. Park has a tiny beach for its tiny lake. Unfortunately, the very small lake is used by jet skiers and ski boats so very loud and no good for swimming, paddling or fishing except really early or late in the day. Two short trails are cute with tortoises. The bugs are enthusiastic so if you’re not ready to bathe in DEET, you will pay the price. Good park to spend the night on the way somewhere.
ScoutConvenient to river for boating/ fishing. Most camping spots have shade and rv she's have full hookup with concrete pads.
