Best Campgrounds near Hinesville, GA

Campgrounds near Hinesville, Georgia range from full-service RV resorts to state park facilities with diverse accommodation options. Happy Campers RV Park in Hinesville provides basic amenities for RV travelers, while Fort McAllister State Park Campground in nearby Richmond Hill offers a more comprehensive camping experience with tent sites, RV hookups, cabins, and yurts. The region includes several military-affiliated camping areas like Holbrook Pond Recreation Area at Fort Stewart, which serves both military personnel and civilians with tent and RV sites as well as cabin rentals.

Access to camping areas varies seasonally, with most campgrounds in the region operating year-round due to Georgia's mild coastal climate. Full hookup sites are widely available, though tent campers may find fewer dedicated options. "The 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," noted one camper about Fort McAllister. Road conditions generally remain good throughout the year, with most campgrounds accessible via paved roads. Proximity to Interstate 95 makes many sites convenient stopover points for travelers, while others provide longer-term options for those exploring coastal Georgia.

Campers frequently mention the strategic location of mixed-use campgrounds in the area as ideal bases for exploring both Savannah's historic district and coastal attractions. Skidaway Island State Park Campground, approximately 30 minutes from Hinesville, receives particularly high ratings for its natural setting. One visitor described it as "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." Several campgrounds in the region feature water access, with fishing opportunities at locations like Holbrook Pond Recreation Area. Most camping areas provide standard amenities including showers, restrooms, and picnic tables, though quality and maintenance levels vary considerably between state park facilities and privately operated campgrounds. Cell service is generally reliable throughout the region, making these camping areas suitable for remote workers and travelers needing connectivity.

    Lake Jasper RV Park

    We spent 5 days here at this lake park using it as a base camp to visit our son and family in Bluffton, SC. (30 minute drive) Not far from Savannah, Georgia also. It’s a nice place with both back in and pull through sites.. some close to the lake.

    Fort McAllister State Park Campground

    Beautiful woods and cool fort

    This park is out on the edge of town. All the spaces were far apart from each other. Most of them were pull through, but beware some of the pull through had trees which would limit larger trailers or coaches getting into the sites. All the sites for camping I believe had at least water and electric and I think some of them had sewer as well. There were nice showers and even a laundry facility. Nice little hike through the magnolia trail where I spotted deer, raccoons, and armadillo, and several squirrels. Also if you book online you don’t get the senior discount but if you go into the office they will give it to you. And don’t miss going through the fort and the museum. Very interesting part of our history.

    Fort McAllister State Park Campground

    Loved to be immersed in Nature

    This 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).

    CreekFire RV Resort

    Overall a good stay, will be back

    Campground 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!
