    Pebble Hill RV Resort

    Not Quite A Resort, But Pretty Close!

    I must admit, the concept of an RV Resort is lost on me, but that said, if I was looking for an RV Resort to spend the night(or a handful) than Pebble Hill RV Resort, located in the SE corner of Georgia, certainly ticks a number of boxes. At first glance, you would spy this RV campground and consider it to be, well, just like most of the rest– complete with 20/ 30/ 50 electrical amp and water hook-ups, slanted pull-through sites with a picnic table, BBQ and fire ring all encircling a small pond(with plans to develop a second one)– but upon a closer look(OK, more than a look, you’ll have to go for a short drive or a 10 minute walk) and you’ll come to the main house, where there’s a Victorian-like pool oasis, complete with sun loungers and umbrellas. Behind the great house here, you’ll discover another pond and about 20 additional spots– some of which they’ll let out to tent campers. Insider’s tip? I would definitely recommend a site near the main house, where, BTW, there’s plans to build a clubhouse/ gym space. There’s plenty of open spaces for a game of flag football or ultimate frisbee along with other amenities such as 2 laundry areas as well as fresh eggs every morning from the hens onsite, along with your pick of fresh produce from the resort’s own home-grown vegetable gardens, 2 dog parks along with a number of decent, albeit not-too-difficult hiking trails. This spot is pet friendly and overall, I found the owners, staff and rest of the RV-going community to be quite friendly, welcoming and inviting. Another upside to this spot is that it is relatively new and so the owners appear to be building and adding new things everyday. Insider’s tips? I have a handful… Nearby there’s a handful of golf courses(if that’s your thing) and for those wanting to hit the ocean shores, you’ll have about a 50 minute drive to the nearest beaches– not too bad when you consider the very reasonable prices you’ll be paying to stay at this spot. I’d also recommend that you check out some of what SE Georgia has to offer such as the quaint town of St. Mary’s, and it goes without saying, nearby Savannah, as well as some pretty outstanding islands like St. Simons, Jekyll, Sapelo and Cumberland. There’s also nearby General Coffee State Park, which has fantastic hiking trails and features a Heritage Farm so the little ones can see how hard it was to live(and have fun) back in the day. Happy Camping!

    I love it here

    Lots of room. Spacious campsites. The hosts are friendly. Propane tanks picked up and filled for you. There’s a large fenced dog park. Laundry available. Clean bath houses. There are small comping cabins available. I have full hookups. The area is remote and quiet, but the Walmart and dollar store are right up the road if you forget something.

    General Coffee State Park Campground

    Memorial Day Weekend 2020

    We tent camped for 2 nights in campsite #1 in campground #1. This site is the first site to the right when you pull into the campground. There are trash cans at the campground exit and a direct line of sight view of the dump station. The west river trail runs right behind the campsite. The site itself is spacious with plenty of shade. There are a couple of good sets of trees for hanging a hammock. The electric box is a little further from the tent pad (which is packed sand and not gravel) than most sites I’ve stayed at, so I was happy that I brought an extension cord. The camp restrooms are adequate but not at all ADA accessible at campground #1. There are 3 toilet stalls, 2 that have working latches, and 2 shower stalls- both with working latches. Both of the showers have a small little room for you to change clothes with a hook on the wall and a hook on the door and a little bench. If you’re tall, be ready to duck to get your head under the water because the shower heads are low. Temperature and pressure were good. Bonus perk- stray cats at the campground.

    The park itself has some cool trails. We hiked the west river trail all the way to the farm at the front of the park. It took us over wooden boardwalks over swampy Cyprus areas and through the forest around the 17 mile river. It was pretty and the heritage tobacco farm was really cool. There are restrooms and a coke machine at the farm. The coke machine takes cards, but bring lots of water with you. There are lots of animals that are used to being fed, so buy some food at the visitor’s center, or prepare to be made to feel guilty. The farm is situated next to a small lake, and when the world isn’t shutdown due to COVID-19, they rent boats. The lake is big enough to boat around in for a little while and there are fish to be caught- carp from what I could tell.

    There was a small gravel road that split off from the first group picnic shelter area that takes you down to the 17 mile river for fishing access. The 17 mile river dries up some years, but the deeper “lakes” keep water in them during those dry years. The river wasn’t flowing while we were here, but there was some standing water in places that would have been dry if it hadn’t rained recently.

    The park is about an hour and a half drive from the main entrance of the Okefenokee swamp. We drove down there and rented a kayak so we both could go paddle the swamp. On the way down there, somewhere outside of waycross, we passed a mudding course, if that’s more your style.

    Overall, this is someplace that I probably wouldn’t come back to because I’ve done all the things that the park has to offer, and there are more parks to explore. It’s definitely worth a visit for a night or two, or as a jumping off point for other activities this part of the state has to offer.

    Two Horse Wagon RV Park

    Great remote and quite RV park on a Farm

    The owners of this campground are phenomenal. Great people. The RV Park is located just outside from Dexter Georgia and about 7 min from I-16. Surrounded by goats, horses, Cows and Peacocks makes this an ideal family camping experience or for someone who wants to escape from the daily stress. Wifi is also fantastic as well as the water. This is not an usual RV park where you camp site by site. Here are 10 available sites with enough distance from each other. I highly recommend to Stop here for a visit or long term stay. André

    Jack Hill State Park

    Small State Park with a Golf Course

    Jack Hill State Park is a small campsite in Reidsville, Georgia. The state park features a lake, golf course, mini golf and splash pad. There are less than 35 campsites on the property and each campsite was well spaced out. The bathroom/shower house facilities were clean and seemed quite new. They had 1 washer and dryer on site on the backside of the bathrooms. While it would be great if they had another set of laundry machines, I understand as it is such a small park and there is laundry very close by. The Park featured only 1 or 2 trails that were really short. I wish they had more trails. The Park was within a few minutes of basic amenities like gas, groceries and a McDonalds. The nearest Walmart was 30 minutes away in Vidalia, GA and it featured restaurants and tons of stores nearby. The campsite was $35 per night and we had full hookups.

    Paulk Park RV Park and Campground

    Great view and highly unique

    Paulk Park is an RV park and campground situated next to a lake and sandwiched between a small municipal airport (with very little air traffic) and a city park. The tent sites aren't really sites, but more of a large field with no discernable separation between each site. The host's pre-trip messages are very detailed and easy to follow. They basically say to find a spot between the road and the lake and claim it, so I opted to stay farthest away from the shower house and my neighbor. When we arrived, there was one other tent camper and no RV's. The wind came in very strong and my distant neighbor packed up and left. On this warm February evening, I had the entire park to myself.

    There are not many trees around and the terrain is quite flat so if the wind picks up, it can be very strong. I made sure to stake the tent well so this was not a problem. There were some people in the park on the other side of the lake and a reception was taking place in the event center which is in the same building as the showers and laundry, but once the party across the lake broke up, there wasn't much noise. That is, with the exception of the trains. I'm not sure if it is normal or there was something special going on with the train yard a short distance away, but the trains were blowing their horns every 10 minutes or less throughout the entire night and they are definitely loud enough to keep even a moderate sleeper awake. However, the train noise was really the only negative thing I found about this location. I would definitely come back...with a set of earplugs.

    Paulk Park RV Park and Campground

    Nice quiet city park

    Cozy and great for self contained. (Small one stall bathroom with shower). Stayed here a week in October with one other camper, very quiet and peaceful. Will have locals visit during the day for the fishing pond. Lots of room to walk dogs.


Guide to Lumber City

Towns Bluff Park and Little Ocmulgee State Park are positioned along the Altamaha River basin in south-central Georgia, approximately 150-200 feet above sea level. This coastal plain region experiences hot, humid summers with temperatures often reaching the mid-90s, while winter evenings can dip into the 40s. The surrounding landscape features a mix of longleaf pine forests, cypress swamps, and river floodplains that support diverse wildlife.

What to do

Fishing the Altamaha River: Towns Bluff Park provides direct river access where anglers catch catfish regularly. "Nice campground right next to the best catfish river out there," notes Scott S., who found the peaceful setting perfect for fishing trips.

Farm animal experiences: General Coffee State Park maintains a heritage farm with livestock. "We have gone to this campground a couple of times now and every time we go it has been a great visit. We love buying carrots to feed all the farm animals," shares Kirsten W., highlighting the interactive family activity.

Kayaking and paddle sports: Little Ocmulgee State Park & Lodge has a small lake for water recreation. "This campground has a lake for canoe and paddle boards that you can rent. There is also a great walking trail with cypress trees and swampy landscape," explains Anna R., describing the paddling opportunities.

What campers like

Spacious, private sites: Towns Bluff Park offers well-separated camping areas. "Well maintained rural park. Very quiet and sites are spacious. Park hosts and office people are wonderful!" according to Dawn S., who appreciated the room between campsites.

Clean facilities: Little Ocmulgee maintains good infrastructure despite challenging conditions. "Clean and Shady camping space with newer, clean showers and restrooms," reports J V., noting the facilities remained well-kept even during construction activities in September 2023.

Primitive camping options: For those seeking more isolation, Jeff Davis County Towns Bluff Park offers undeveloped sites. "If you keep left instead of going towards the rv campground, there is a free primitive camping area that has multiple spots for camping," explains Monte W., who found water available from a hose and minimal bug issues in early October.

What you should know

Weather planning essential: Summer heat impacts camping comfort significantly. "We stayed in early October and the weather was great. 75 as a high and upper 50's at night. Bugs were not much of an issue either," shares Monte W. about Towns Bluff Park, highlighting why shoulder seasons offer better camping conditions.

Site leveling challenges: Be prepared to make adjustments at certain campgrounds. "The campground is not flat, so some of the sites aren't level, I did have to use a couple of boards to level my camper," warns Roger L. about Little Ocmulgee State Park.

Limited dump facilities: Plan your departure timing carefully. "Only complaint, only one dump station. Gets very busy with everyone leaving, so get there early!" advises Roger L. regarding Little Ocmulgee's facilities.

Tips for camping with families

Heritage farm visit: Kids enjoy the educational aspects of General Coffee State Park. "The farm was great with chickens, sheep, donkey and horse. On our visit there were 3 day old lambs!!" Rachel G. enthusiastically shares, noting this makes for a great 3-4 day family trip.

Splashpad access: During hot months, water features provide relief. "If you have little kids, there's a splash pad and pool they would enjoy," mentions G F. about amenities at Little Ocmulgee State Park.

Outdoor exploration: Towns Bluff Park offers family-friendly natural areas. "This is a place where you bring your family and dogs! You can relax and enjoy the river and hunt during hunting season!! The host are great and the place is amazing," recommends Alexis M., highlighting the dog-friendly campground near Lumber City.

Tips from RVers

Hookup availability: 341 RV Park provides complete utilities for longer stays. "This RV Park is clean, friendly and has Full Water and Sewer Hookups. It's off Highway 341 which connects Coastal and Middle Georgia," notes a review from the park management.

Site selection for big rigs: Choose carefully at dog-friendly campgrounds near Lumber City to ensure proper fit. "Careful about some of the pull through spaces as there are trees that might make it difficult for longer RVs to get into," advises Lisa M. about General Coffee State Park.

Full hookup options: Don Hill State Park offers comprehensive services. "The campsite was $35 per night and we had full hookups," reports Austin-Tarra G., noting the convenient location near basic amenities like gas and groceries only a few minutes away.
