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.

Very well maintained campground with a nice walking trail. We stayed here for two nights and it was very nice.
Scout
Excellent camping experience even if the racoons are little geniuses. Nice nature walks and friendly people. Lots of stuff for the kids to do!
GuidePros:
SO CLEAN!! The workers here are friendly and work hard to keep everything nice and clean.
The laundry here takes cards/tap and app pay which was great.
Sites are really large, spaced out and private.
Lots of hiking trails right at the campground and two large playgrounds for kids.
Close to shopping for food, restaurants etc.
The whole campground is just very peaceful, quiet and serene. It is also beautiful with all the Spanish moss.
Cons: Gate locks at 10 pm which really is not enough time if you want a night downtown.
It was pretty muddy…people were getting mud all over because of the snow. Not their fault but a hard rain would do the same. Poor drainage.
Scout
Spent 3 days here. Gave 4 stars since we didn't use most of the things available. But laundry area is clean and works great. Nice area to camp in, level spots as well. Will stay again.
Guide
We camped here in November of 2023, and it beat our expectations! A beautiful big open area for camping with lots of spots right by the water. Wonderfully managed by locals, I only wish there wasn't a limit on the stay because we would've camped there much longer! This park has a bathroom with showers! And the showers have hot water!!!! Amazing! They are not great to look at, but that's to be expected in any area with humidity. The long sandy road coming in is often washboard and occasionally has big dips or ruts. So drive very mindfully. Overall, it's a fantastic spot, and we hope it reopens soon so we can visit again!
ScoutThis campground is a lovely place to visit. It’s absolutely beautiful, it’s close to Savannah, and it is a great value.
Legend
If this RV oasis was any closer to the hustle & bustle of I95, the busiest thoroughfare in the Palmetto State, it would be on it, but what you don’t know is that there’s a handful of lakes and surrounding forest that is thickly populated by pine wetland along with 300 acres of Sergeant Jasper Park that adds additional nature between this CG and the highway, so you’re incredibly close, but you won’t notice it. In fact, you won’t hear anything out here, which was pretty amazing, considering just how close to I95 you are. And whether you’re planning on heading to Savannah, which is 30 minutes south of here, 40 minutes to picturesque Beaufort or oceanfront Hilton Head Island, only about 30 minutes southeast, Lake Jasper RV Park makes for either a great layover for a single night or for even a longer spell. What was also surprising is that you are not even located on the mainland here – in fact, you’ll be parked on Eagle Scout Island with direct access to beautiful Lake Jasper, which will satisfy your fishing, boating and paddling urges.
The campground is impeccably landscaped, well-maintained and organized with the RV and 5th Wheeler crowd in mind, wherein there’s decent-sized paved roads that will easily escort you around the entire property, where even the trickiest of turns are EZ here. The parking pads are both long as well as wide and where you do find ground, it’s a mixture of soil and sand silt, which prevents any erosion from happening whether you need to set up blocks for your sewage or erect a 10x10 shelter – whatever you plant in the ground is going to stay put. While there’s not a ton of privacy in between slots, each site was very spacious so you won’t have to worry about being up in your neighbors business and with 105 individual pull-through or back-in slots to choose from, each one is incredibly level and features FHUs featuring water, sewage and 50 amp electric. The pads themselves are either small gravel or sandy soil with all sites featuring a concrete patio.
Amenities: General marketplace at the main office, separate restroom and shower facilities, heated pool sitting lakefront, coin-and-CC-operated laundr-O-mat, community fire pits, doggie park & station, fishing dock, designated picnic area, RV & boat storage, covered pier, WiFi, cable-TV access, lakeside center, tetherball, horseshoes, key-pad gated entry, designated dumpsters, access to hiking trails that will take you in and around Sergeant Jasper county park offering more than 3 miles of decent, flat trails but the crown jewel of this particular campground is the direct lake access to quaint Lake Jasper.
Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) You definitely want to make the most out of being located adjacent to Sergeant Jasper county park where not only is there a direct trailhead access point here at Lake Jasper RV Park to explore all of the hiking trails or bike on, but there’s additional activities over here like a lakefront gazebo, kid’s playground, additional picnic shelters, canoe & kayak rentals as well as an 18-hole disc golf course; (2) In the event that you want to get ‘off the reservation’ and try some local fare, I highly recommend Tailgators Bar & Grill, The Clubhouse at Okatie Creek and Frankie Bones over in Blufton;(3) Should you need to load up on any supplies, just head east on Route 278 where there’s a Publix, Kroger, Sam’s Club, CVS and Walmart Supercenter; (4) If you are of my tent pitchin’ tribe, you’ll want to look for other accommodations as this is a mobile camping outpost only; (5) Be sure to grab a spot at the community fire pit or the small little peninsula that the picnic area is on around 5pm in order to get a pristine view of the sunset as it sinks right over Lake Jasper, making for simply wonderful sundowners; (6) Be aware that there are snakes and alligators in and around Lake Jasper, so if you’re out walking Fido, be sure to keep him / her on the leash at all times; and (7) IMHO the best sites are those located right on the lake and include sites like #14, #31– #38 and #39 – #47, although you will want to take the following into consideration: site #39 rubs right up against the shower and restroom facilities and sites #14 and #31 have the head trail entrance running between them, so if you are concerned with random pedestrians passing by your spot all the time, then maybe another spot would be better. If you don’t mind not having a lakeview, I also like spots #48 – #53 that are tucked away in a corner and keep you away from the general population.
Happy Camping!
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.
Ranger
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.
GuideI 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.
ScoutVery well established with a lot of amenities and nice hiking trails. I thought $50 for tent camping was a bit too pricy though.
Guide
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.

First of all, Sunshine RV Park is VERY MUCH in business! We stayed here for a month during September 2024. What has happened… the original owner William L.“Bill” Bruner passed June 2022 and now his grandson Michael Bruner is running Sunshine RV Park LLC. We stayed here 20 yrs ago and much has changed and for the better. Sunshine RV Park now has about 70 level concrete RV sites. The RV sites are about 65 ft in length of which 50 ft is poured concrete with a concrete patio. We have a 45ft motorcoach and we fit on our site just fine. All of the sites have 50/30/15 amp electric, water(good tasting/good pressure) and sewer. No problems with electric voltage even in the hot Georgia summertime. And new concrete sites are being added at this time. Lots of area to add more RV sites. Michael is doing a great job as the new owner of Sunshine RV Park. Michael manages the RV park full-time and has help. Someone to cut grass/weed trimming around the RV sites and someone to pick up any trash and help maintain the RV Park. RV sites are being improved ongoing. We use T-Mobile and get a consistent 550-600 mbps down and 10-15 mbps up speeds. With T-Mobile we achieved 5GUC 2-3 bars the majority of the time at the RV Park. We also have a T-Mobile 4G hot spot and achieved speeds of 15-20 mpbs down and 5-15 mbps up. No problems streaming at all.
Sunshine RV Park is big rig friendly. No rocks to navigate around and no overhead tree limbs to worry about. Plenty of room between RV’s. All of the sites are back-in except one site which is pull-thru. Sunshine RV Park is pet friendly and has lots of grass for your pet. Just make sure to pick-up after your pet, keep them on a leash at all times and no disturbing of neighbors by your pet. All commonsense rules to live by. Now let me say this… Sunshine RV Park has mostly long-term contract area workers. Advance reservations are needed to stay at Sunshine RV Park. Rif-raff is not tolerated at all by the owner, and it is very quiet here after dusk. I would say that about 60 of the 70 sites are long-term RV’ers. This being said, if you are a traveler and are looking for someplace in the Savannah area to stay, consider Sunshine RV Park IF you want to stay for 1 to 4 weeks or more. You must have a self-contained RV– no tenters. No playground/swimming pool or other RV resort amenities here, but you are only 7 miles to the Savannah Historic District, a 7-minute drive to Kroger grocery and CVS/Walgreens or a 10-minute drive to a Wal-Mart Supercenter. Lots and lots of fantastic area restaurants to choose from that feature great southern-style cooking! Sunshine RV Park is a safe and quiet(an occasional jet flying overhead) place to park your RV as it’s in a residential area. On Sunshine Avenue is the Georgia Public Safety Training Center- a training complex for all Georgia state and local public safety agencies. The Garden City Public Library, the Police/Fire Dept/EMS are all less than a mile from the RV Park. The owner’s home is next to Sunshine RV Park, and he drives around the RV Park to ensure its safety. Amazon local delivery, Wal-Mart grocery local delivery, UPS and FedEx all serve Sunshine RV Park as we had deliveries from all four during our stay. There is a farmers’ market at Forsyth Park every Saturday year-round from 9:00 AM-1:00 PM featuring a variety of farm goods and prepared foods. We did encounter a minor problem with USPS mail. USPS does not deliver to this address unless you register with the Post Office prior to receiving postal mail. To have our USPS postal mail received, we used Post Office General Delivery Service and picked up our mail at the Savannah Post Office downtown. The Savannah Visitor Center on MLK is a great resource to help plan your area adventure. Savannah is a walking town. Savannah has squares and parks, and these are the community's most beloved icons. Originally designed with 24 squares, 22 remain today to be enjoyed by the millions who walk these grassy utopias every year. If I was to mention a negative, driving down Sunshine Ave. we did encounter some tree branches. No damage to our RV but do drive slowly. Sunshine Ave. is only a half-mile long street and the RV park is on the left side at the end of the street. The RV Park’s office has a large sign on it with the address and phone number of Sunshine RV Park. We truly enjoyed our 1 month stay here at Sunshine RV Park and absolutely enjoyed our visit to beautiful and historical Savannah, Georgia. We hope the information we have provided will help you plan your visit to Savannah.
Update- I had given a copy of our review of Sunshine RV Park to the owner about a week prior to a departure. Michael had read that I had commented on our encounter of some tree branches along Sunshine Ave. and trimmed them back nicely! Even trimming tree branches of private property owners who's homes border Sunshine Ave. IMO, this owner truly cares about this business.
LegendWe 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!
Ranger
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.
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.
LegendRed 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!
Scout
It would have got a 5 star but the pool is NOT open. DHEC inspection tomorrow, MAYBE open about the time we leave in 3 days.
Nice concrete pad, pull through and we are just going to leave the car connected.
The internet is GOOD! in the afternoon of our arrival. I have streamed some HD video and it is solid. I didn't bother setting up the EARTHLINK dish which would work well here because it is mostly open sky, which means in July, your AC better be working because it is HOT.
ScoutWe found this place online when the one we booked was terrible! This was an outstanding RV campground! The front office was kind, considerate and very helpful! Concrete drives and pads! Well drained and did not flood despite the torrential down pours(more than 1). Very clean! We had a wonderful spot and enjoyed our stay. I highly recommend this brand new facility. Come one..... come all! Enjoy!
GuideWe had a great stay at CreekFire resort
Scout
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.
ScoutPool is not open and no gas golf carts allowed. I CANCELED MY RESERVATION
Traveler
This park is brand new, all utilities come with the rental fee and the place is secluded and off the main traffic in Appling County Ga.
Lake Mayers is less than 6 miles and the lake is beautiful, had a great time! I would highly recommend.
LegendEasy 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!
GuideStayed 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.
Traveler
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.
Ranger
Paved roads to every campsite. Gravel pads for the RV. Close to town. Decent dog park. Extensive gym and fairly decent laundry room.
