    Savannah, Georgia

    As part of Georgia’s Intracoastal Waterway, Skidaway Island State Park is nearly 600 acres of maritime forest, tidal creeks, and salt marshes nestled between the Skidaway River and the housing developments of The Landing. The park’s main draw is its lush coastal woods of live oaks, red cedars, and pines dripping with Spanish moss, which, in turn, is home for a variety of wildlife, including deer, raccoons and a variety of shorebirds. Many of the park’s flora and fauna can be seen on a network of 6 miles of walking trails and boardwalks. Some trails are ADA accessible, and some are also open to cyclists. For your best chance at spying a resident alligator, go for a stroll on the 2-mile Big Ferry Trail. Visitors to Skidaway Island State Park, just a 10-mile drive southeast of Savannah, have access to nearly 90 tent and RV campsites, in addition to 3 camper cabins and 3 group campsites. All sites offer electrical hookups, and some are ADA accessible. Campground amenities include restrooms with showers, bike rentals, picnic areas, two playgrounds, laundry facilities, and an interpretive center. There is also an amphitheater that hosts seasonal interpretive programs. A hiking trail from the campground leads to an observation tower that overlooks the Skidaway Narrows, where you can scan for egrets and osprey. If you’re lucky, you might spot dolphins swimming up the waterway. Campsite rates range from $40–$49/night; cabins range from $42–$140/night.

    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.

    Lots of options

    I stayed in a back in site in camping area 2. I would call it big rig challenging w/the narrow road and tight-ish back in. I enjoyed the trails & observation tower as well as the cute little shop where you check in. My friend joined me over the weekend & her kids really liked the All About Bats presentation & the playground. Lots of deer & other wildlife to be seen. Shaded sites & mine was full hookup. Pet friendly & the laundry facility takes credit cards. They ended up renting a yurt which was cool. There are also cabins but we didn’t see those.

    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.

    CreekFire RV Resort

    Great location and easy access

    We did a short weekend visit to escape the heat. We were up the weekend after Labor Day, so maybe 30% occupancy. It was great! We got site 198, which is a perimeter back in. All amenities are close by. They have two kid splash areas, lazy river and heated pool. There are two spas, although one was down on our visit (not big deal). They have plenty of options to check out games. On site dining and bar are a bonus!

    Be warned that roosters just east wake up early!

    Red Gate Farms - RV Resort

    Beautiful and convenient to Savannah

    Beautiful grounds with horses, goats, lakes, pool, playground and rental venues. Former dairy farm with open spaces and pastures for animals. Equestrian camps, trail rides, and carriage rides available on site. Several rental facilities on site for weddings, etc.

    Most sites are level and gravel with picnic tables and firepits.

    • Sites 13-19 have big trees behind them that offer afternoon shade.
    • 1-12 and 20-22 are essentially full sun.
    • Other sites (D and B1 and B2) around office are under tree canopy and full shade. D sites seem smaller and would be better for van type campers.
    • C2 would be my preference if coming back…on water, away from other campers, open field.

    Two home style bathrooms in the office building along with laundry and fitness machines.

    Savannah Trolley Stop on site is a nice feature. And dogs are reportedly allowed on trolley (although we didn’t use this trip).

    Wifi seems inconsistent. Did not set up starlink since we are only here one night but others do have it. At&t is two bars.

    It is close to a major parkway with traffic noise in the morning and evening.

    Very rural, river access

    Very rural, very quiet. Private river access, full hookup available. Pet friendly & spacious. 30 mins from 2 golf courses in case you golf. 8 miles to the nearest anything (small grocery & dollar general). Very kind owner & camp host.

    Tranquil.. Goats, Horses & Lakeviews

    Red Gat was wonderful! We stayed at site D7 with water & electric (no sewer). Our site was well shaded and right near the office/store/showers/laundry building. Most of the sites with sewer were on an unshaded spot of grass. Walking around the farm is beautiful- you can watch the horses, talk to the goats, walk down to the Mackey House, check out the Peacocks, swim in the pool or sit on a swing near the lake. We would absolutely come back. It's also 10-15 min from Savannah which was a plus!

    Convenient overnight stop

    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

    Laura S Walker State Park Campground

    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!

    Please avoid.

    DO NOT STAY HERE! We have been travelling across the US all year and this is by far the worst campground we have stayed at. It’s so run down with a disgusting pool and very unhelpful staff. We had to leave due to a very sick kiddo and despite giving two days notice they refused to refund any money leaving us hundreds of $$ out of pocket. Please avoid.

    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!

    Great Georgia State Park!

    Easy to reserve online! Water and electric hookups. Arrived after hours, and an info packet was waiting for us. Only stayed the weekend for cheer competition at the Savannah Convention Center, approximately 30 minutes away. Unfortunately the rain was full on while we were there, our site got a bit muddy. Friday evening was nice, and we were able to make s’mores, with the fire ring that was at the site, also a picnic table. And there is Lots of space between sites, great updated playground for the kids. The bathrooms are clean! Cute on site info center….Lots of nature! Many stores and quaint restaurants near the campground. Would recommend and we would reserve here again!

    Narrow Roads, Big Sites

    Stayed at Site 77 for 2 full weeks.

    25 minutes to the historic district of Savannah, GA, 40 minutes to Tybee Island beach and about 1hr15min to Hilton Head Island.

    AT&T service = 1-2 bars Verizon service = 3 bars

    WiFi is available ONLY in Visitors Center.

    The bathhouses were always very clean and we were able to walk the trails several times while here.

    This is a great and affordable way to stay near Savannah in an awesome GA State Park

    Our only complaint is that the roads are very narrow, have many roots pushing up the pavement, and the roads are barely wide enough for a truck/camper let alone the fact that they are NOT one way roads.

    Small park with 6 level gravel 30ft wide spaces with full hookups fences between neighbors very well maintained grassy lots for an unbeatable price. Watch out for the deer on hwy 57. No office on site but the manager met us onsite and was super sweet and helpful brought us a WiFi extender so I could connect for work.

    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.

    Southern Retreat RV Park

    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!

    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.

    Loud and Expensive

    This is a review of our experience here for a six month stay for work (Sep-Mar 2023/24). Whether anything is under the control of the owners or not, it provides information about our experience for others. Our evaluation is based on a comparison of campgrounds we have been to over the last thirty plus years. We know we agreed to the terms here, but didn't have much of a choice with other places being full and other reservations being cancelled on us prior to our arrival.

      Making reservation and check in were both easy. We paid by check. We were brought to our site in a golf cart and shown all the hookups and it was explained how to get into the site easily. We had no problems with Barbara or Russ. They were very informative as to where all the necessary places were (groceries, car wash etc.) We were also given a couple of good recommendations for local restaurants. You can buy tickets and get the trolley from here.   Most sites are nice, large, and shaded. Ours had a concrete pad and we fit our 36 foot 5th wheel and 2 vehicles easily, and still had all kinds of space. The front row is all on dirt and close together, the rest of the park is spacious sites.   The park itself is nice and everyone is quiet. There are many long term and permanent rigs, but all are in pretty good shape. Convenient location for work at hospital. You can receive mail/packages here.

    Now for the drawbacks.   It is pretty expensive for a park with no amenities. There is no wifi, laundry room, shower/restroom, picnic table, fire ring, store, or dog park. Nothing. Our next campground is four hundred a month cheaper and has showers, restrooms and laundry/game room. All of our previous campgrounds at this price had pools, playgrounds, basketball and or pickleball, stores, propane, dog parks, fire rings, picnic tables, and some even free entertainment on Friday and Saturday evenings.   This is by far the loudest campground we have ever been to for road noise. The front row is 20 yards from the highway, and the second row (which we were in) is about 30 yards away. Vehicles with loud exhausts and stereos and semis all day long. There are both a police station and a fire station right down the road, so they go blasting by with sirens on average 4-6 times a day. I even joked with my wife that there were no sirens until 20 minutes into the new year. There is no attempt to quiet it, like a privacy fence or anything. I understand it may not be as bad in the back spaces.   No security measures. I know of four vehicles that were gone through while we were there (including mine). The fence doesn't surround the whole property, no controlled access, no cameras, and only one light at the entrance. I read a previous review that someone else had a problem with catching someone going through their stuff here.   Monthly stays have to maintain your own site. Mowing, raking, etc. Since it was fall/winter I did a lot of cleaning up leaves and fallen branches. Somewhere between 30-40 bags of leaves.   Large trees may be nice for shade in summer, but both of our vehicles (one brand new) ended up looking like they were in a hailstorm from the acorns falling out of the huge oaks they were parked under. The truck also had a couple of scrapes from the branches falling on it. Site 5. Not all sites have the parking directly beneath these behemoth trees.   We went ten days over six months. For the last ten days our rate was changed to where it cost seventy dollars per night. Most places have just continued those last few days at the same rate we were paying for the monthly rate.   After a while of being in Savannah we did find other campgrounds at about half the price which would have added between 10 to 30 minutes of drive time for work. We chose to not go through the hassle of packing everything up and moving. We would probably choose one of those campgrounds for two main reasons: Price and road noise.
