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.
$40 - $49 / night
$33 - $34 / night

I’ve never “glamped” before, so I can’t comment much from that perspective. It is not a “luxury” spot. But for us it was better than that because it was fun, comfortable and easy.
About 15 minutes from Ridgeland proper with stores, dining, etc, Stonewood Farm is tucked away in the pines a short dirt road drive off a 2 lane highway.
Kim, the host, is friendly and helpful. She gave us a tour of the farm and introduced us to the animals.
Bring a bag of carrots for the horses.
My son loved the animals and exploring.
The tent/cabin is wood framed with wood and canvas walls. The mattress on the queen bed was awesome. But you will want to spend most of your time outside under the stars and by the fire pit. The area is dark, so good star gazing.
I took pictures of the kitchen items provided.
Great stay. Thanks!
ScoutMy daughter and I stayed in the glamping tent at Stonewood Farm just before Thanksgiving.
What a great place to unwind before the craziness of the holidays. Stonewood Farm is tucked away and offers the perfect blend of nature and farm life.
All the animals on this off-the-grid Hobby Farm are rescues and really friendly. My 12 year old daughter was in Heaven! She had fun with the horses, goats, dogs and especially the one cat who visited our tent and crashed our Monopoly game.
The tent itself is spacious and has a tv/dvd, a heater and the most comfy bed ever. We happened to be there during a new moon and could see a million stars and the Milky Way right over our tent. We could hear owls in the distance calling to each other.
Kimberly and Ed were amazing hosts. The campsite is away form their cabin allowing for privacy, but if we ever needed anything, they were right there to help.
My only concern is this was my daughter’s first time camping in a tent and the bar is now raised high. Haha. This is such a unique experience, we will definitely be back!

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.
GuideWe love stopping here when passing through Georgia. The campground is quiet and the sites are well-maintained.
RangerWe have camped here twice now and absolutely love it here. Huge shady sites in beautiful Georgia Marshlands. Very close to downtown Savannah and Tybee Island. We will definitely be back!
ScoutMy favorite campground...nestled in a maritime forest, the live oaks and Spanish moss, drip and dance around you, lending an air of romance and other- worldly feel.
Skidaway is on an island off Savannah Georgia, accessible over a causeway, that allows a view of the beautiful marsh and river topography. When in the campground, you feel miles away from downtown Savannah, and yet in 15 minutes you have access to the beautiful, and colorful city filled with great food, history, art and music.
This campground is well organized and the staff are proficient at their job.
There is shopping near and wonderful seafood restaurants within a short drive.
The coast of Georgia is a must to explore by boat. Wild islands and beautiful rivers abound.
Guide
We enjoyed the well-kept campground and explored the civil war fort which inspired discussions of Georgia’s history. Too hot to have an enjoyable hike, though. The park is located close to necessary needs - hardware and grocery stores. Check out Fish Tales on the Ogeechee River just outside the park.
ScoutDrove over by car from Hilton Head to check it out as a quick getaway. Georgia parks are very well kept with clean bathrooms and showers. Fort McAllister is one that is clean. But we found it primitive even though it has some full hookups with 50 Amps. Lots of shade and woodsy sites, but no water views and limited marsh views. Remote, no bike paths. Did not visit Historic Confederate park.
RangerThe park for camping is not well maintained. We stayed on site 6 which is a new site, full hook up, nice marsh view. Grass was tall in many of the campsites and it was very buggy when we were there. We did the tour of the fort and that was the highlight of our trip. Highly recommend the tour. We also visited the Coastal Georgia Botanical Gardens and enjoyed that very much. Love’s Seafood Restaurant for dinner is close by.
GuideThis is typical Georgia State Park with large sites and clean, well maintained grounds. Our site was level and spacious. One thing we didn't expect, even in Savannah in December, was mosquitoes. We planned this trip to coincide with the annual Civil War reenactment of Sherman's last battle on his way to the sea. It was our first reenactment and was interesting, but since we didn't know what to expect, was a bit of a let down. This is not to say that the reenactors didn't do their part, they did. Maybe it was because the actual battle only lasted about fifteen minutes.

Tybee island is just outside of Savanna Georgia. Beautiful southern charm. On site pool, general store, bike ride to the beach or around the whole island -very private. Tour the light house and many other local activities. Campsite was soft white pebbles with beautiful historic trees. No see ums were a bit aggravating - this could just have been the time of year. Most people had screened in sitting areas. The bath houses were super clean and individual- nice size pool- great to relax in after a day at the beach. This was another great week of adventure for the books!!
RangerWe stayed at Skidaway Island State Park for 4 nights in May. Even thought the park was full (Memorial Day weekend), it never felt crowded. The spaces are very large and spread out. Many of the campsites have gorgeous Live Oak trees covered in Spanish Moss. The center sites in the campground are pull through with full hookups. The majority are some mix of pull through or back in with water / electric. There are a handful of nature trails that are easily accessible from the campground. The campground is also a short drive from Savannah, so it’s a great base camp for exploring northeastern Georgia.
Legend
This is the site of a lesser known confederate civil war prison. There was some archeological work going on when we were there. The spring is very pretty, with turtles and fish swimming under the bridges of the walkway, and there were lots of alligators along the stream. We let our dogs swim in the lake before we realized the gators were probably there as well. There is an aquarium for Georgia fish at the park. The campground is in tall pine trees with shade, but not much privacy. Most are level. Water and electric sites and a dump station.
GuidePlanned a trip with friends to Tybee Island Georgia, just outside Savannah. It rained the first couple of days we were there, but still were Able to get out and enjoy the sites sounds and food. Although sites are close together, the park offers , RV sites with full hook up, cabins, pool, beach access and laundry facilities. Golf cart approved for whole island. The RV park is close to everything!
Just follow the signs to the path that takes you right to the beach. Spend a day basking in the sun, then come back to your RV to settle in for the evening. There are really good seafood restaurants nearby, an ice cream shop you could walk to and a cool little diner on the far end of the island that serves marvelous breakfast. Shopping at stores showcasing local crafters near by.
If it’s beach and sun you want, look no further. Nice, helpful staff make your stay very pleasant.
GuideMagnolia Springs State Park is a nice Georgia State Park. Located just north of Millen, GA, the park offers ample camping for both RVs and tents.
Spots are flat and easy to park campers and set up tents with enough room between each for a bit of privacy and a few walk-in tent sites for increased privacy. Cabin rentals are available as well as a group lodge. There is a bath house in the main campground that is well kept complete with flush toilets and showers, as well as a coin laundry machines.
Kayak, canoe, pedal boat and bike rentals are all available from the visitor center to explore the spring fed lake and mostly flat trails in the park.
This is a lovely park to camp and spend time in, but is a 2-3 hour drive to Atlanta or Savannah if you are interested in exploring GA. The town of Millen has fast food options, as well as ample opportunity to pick up essential goods.
TravelerWe wanted to explore the GA coast and Skidaway Island State Park did not disappoint. We used the park as a base to experience Georgia's low country.
While the Island is basically a gated community for Savannah, the park is a beautiful reminder of a time gone by with Spanish moss draped live oaks and plenty of wildlife to see and hear.
Well maintained and clean, the park is just what we were looking for. The hosts keep the place spotless and make sure the rules for dogs and quiet times are adhered to for the enjoyment of all, while being friendly and helpful to everyone.
The trials inside the park are wide, well marked and, scenic. During tides they can be a bit "moist" so plan to walk part of the trails barefooted or simply avoid those areas.
We did get on the water with our paddle boards as there is a public boat ramp just over the causeway. Exploring the marshlands and seeing the wildlife was awesome. The ramp was clean and well maintained. There is a kayak tour serve that operates from the ramp so, if you don't have water gear, you can rent from them or take part in a tour. Just make note of tides and wind.
Provisions are close at hand with 2 large, well stocked grocery stores within minutes of the park entrance.
October is a wonderful time to visit the Georgia coast. Bugs, tourists, and foul weather are at seasonal lows. Our visit was the middle of October and the days were warm and sunny with the nights cool and mostly bug free. We did get a couple of night time showers and the sound of rain on the tent fly lulled us to sleep. Waking up to the barred owls hooting to each other was nice as well.
UGA has a learning center on the island with an aquarium but, due to COVID, you must make reservations for admittance. The site has some discovery tails that are great for everyone with a boardwalk that extends over the marsh.
As noted in other reviews, Savanah is close by and the beaches of Tybee Island are about 20 minutes away. Fort Polaski is a great place to explore with a lighthouse trial. Be aware that the trial can be very muddy at times. We walked the trail bare footed with pants legs rolled up. No issues.
We visited Wormslow Historic Site. There is a 1.5 mile drive under towering moss draped live oaks to the visiter's center. Beautiful. At the visitor's center you can learn about the history of the site and inhabitants. There are trails through the site with historical reenactment sites along the way.
We plan to go back next fall.

If you suddenly find yourself in northern Georgia in and around Savannah(arguably the coolest place in the entire South) and find yourself in need of parking your mobile camping unit for the night, then Stoney Crest Plantation Campground might be a good place for you to consider. While this camping depot indicates that they offer up tent camping, my own impression is that this is squarely an RV-focused lot, with about 30 or so pull-thru and back-in sites offering all of the typical hook-ups(water, sewage, 50/ 30/ 20 amp electric) as well as designated trash and recycling bins. Located just off of May River Road due north and east of Savannah, Stoney Crest is little more than a grassy knoll for RVs to park for the night(or semi-permanently, as a number of RVs would hint at). One of the great upsides to this location is its proximity to toney Hilton Head Island(just 10 miles away), so if you are looking for proximity to paradise, without the price tag, then Stoney Crest Plantation has you covered. Here at pet-friendly Stoney Crest they offer coin-operated laundry room(2 washer and dryers) facilities, swimming pool, playground, restroom and shower facilities(although I will admit, in dire need of a super cleaning and updated refurbishment), TV/ recreation room, 2 vending machines(note: no on-site market or store) nature-walking trails and complimentary WiFi. Insider’s tips? Here’s a few:(1) If you are looking to‘hit the links’ then there’s a great golf club just due north of Stoney Crest called Hampton Hall Club, which has a simply fantastic 18 holes for you to sink some little white balls in;(2) When you get tired of investigating what might be left in your cooler with which to make a meal and want to explore the local surroundings, then I highly recommend you give‘Squat‘N’ Gobble’ a shot as they have some outstanding‘Low Country’ food options, including Low Country Boil(shrimp, corn on the cob, andouille sausage, red potatoes) and Fried Chicken;(3) Nearby you’ll discover there’s a‘sculpture garden’ in Palmetto Oaks that offers up unique man-made sculptures in the midst of nature;(4) Decent(not amazing) hikes in nearby Saint Joseph’s and Oscar Frazier Parks; and(5) If antebellum South is of interest to you, there’s Heyward House Museum and Welcome Center that displays a lot of the pre-Civil War customs, culture and way-of-life before the South was overtaken by the North. Happy Camping!
TravelerThis campground was nice to stay at, with level grassy spots, a fun playground for the kiddos and plenty of space to run around, outstanding Verizon service, warm showers, and propane refills, and water/electric hook-ups. It also seems to be a popular hook-up spot for the local squirrels.

Camp South RV Park served as a stop-over on our way home from a long road trip in 2020. It was quiet on the night we were there and we had the place practically to ourselves. Met one of the owners and his daughter who told us the story of how the campground was where she learned to hunt. Beautiful farm across the lovely pond. I really enjoyed the community garden and the community gathering area complete with TVs and a large fire pit and cooker. Adorable playground and large dog park with poop bags!! We will be staying again this fall. Can't wait!! Maybe it'll be a little cooler.
GuideCampsites are widely spaced in this wooded area, with a dirt road entrance. Full hookups worked great, the internet worked fine, the bathhouse was clean and fairly modern. A great place for a day or two to get away from it all, cuz there's nothing nearby.
TravelerCampsites are large, and easy to maneuver, it has a red clay sand base to drive on but even when it's raining it's no issue. The people here are wonderful, the facilities are always clean, power is stable and so is the Wi-Fi. And if you like fishing and farm life it has both.
My entire stay has been enjoyable, they have both long-term and short-term.
GuideGreat new family owned campground about an hour east of Savannah right off 16. Pine tree forest, fishing pond, bath house, full hook ups, goats, horses, tranquility.
Guide
Easy in and out to main arteries. Convenient to attractions and supplies. If you’re tenting road noise could be problematic
TravelerThis was our very first camping trip (2 adults, 2 kids & a Lab.) We arrived to friendly service & easily found our site (#6.) The tent sites are right on the water, which is home to swans, ducks, turtles & possibly gators too! The sandy pad for our tent was perfect, very level & comfortable. There was plenty of room for our big screened canopy, picnic table, chairs & fire ring. The views from the lake were wonderful & t made waking up to see the sunrise worth it every day.
This campground is about 30mins from Savannah & Tybee Island - both of which we visited & enjoyed.
The bathhouse & general store were very clean & located a short walk from the tent sites. There is also a playground & pool. The campground was quiet, we had no issues at all.
We will definitely be returning soon!
TravelerPulled in, super attentive management, took us to our spot an answered any questions. Nice, shady pull through level spot. The campsites were well spaced, shaded, with a nice lake. The cabins were very nice with immaculate landscape. Excellent stay for us and our dogs.
ScoutVery shady, level, and accommodating is what I can say upon my first impression. Pet friendly and just over all very well groomed. Manager was there to answer questions upon arrival and later after set up. You can tell this place is maintained. I will come back.
TravelerThe Savannah South KOA was nice enough and comfortable. Fewer amenities than most of the other KOAs we've stayed at, but this one is a tad smaller than the ones we usually stay in as well. It's a perfect stay for a night or two and conveniently located not too far from 95. Overall, the spaces are fairly crowded, but easy enough to get in and out of (the pull thru's anyway). There is a pond, which is nice if you are there long enough to drop a line. Bonus option for those that have pups is that there are a few sites that have private fenced patio spaces for pets. There aren't many though, and they are pricier. Overall, I would recommend it for shorter stays.
