5 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Several RV campgrounds cluster around Savannah and Hilton Head Island, providing access to both coastal Georgia and South Carolina attractions. Red Gate Farms RV Resort offers 31 full-hookup sites with 30/50-amp service, situated on farm property with picnic tables and fire rings. CreekFire RV Resort features concrete pads with 50-amp connections, a restaurant overlooking the lake, and a swimming pool. Spacious Skies Savannah Oaks accommodates RVs with water, electric, and sewer hookups along with tent and cabin options. River's End Campground on Tybee Island provides full-hookup sites though spaces run tight. "Most sites are concrete with full hookups. It's a new campground so they are still getting the amenities operational. Close to the interstate and Savannah."
Access to Savannah requires about 15-20 minutes from most Pooler area campgrounds, with sites filling quickly during peak tourism seasons. Cell service varies by location, with one reviewer noting T-Mobile speeds of "550-600 Mbps down and 10-15 Mbps up" at Sunshine RV Park. Campgrounds closer to Interstate 95, like Lake Jasper RV Park, provide easier access for big rigs but may have highway noise. Many parks remain open year-round, though advance reservations are strongly recommended, particularly for weekend stays. Dump stations are available at most parks, while some offer laundry facilities and propane service. Pet-friendly policies are standard across the region, though dedicated dog parks are limited to larger resorts like Hilton Head National RV Resort.
"Amenities: pull-through or back-in RV sites with full hook-ups (30 / 50 amp electrical, water and sewage), picnic tables, fire ring w/ fold-over grill, standing BBQ grill, trash & recycling bins, remote"
"open easy sites, most are back in. friendly people. pet friendly, but campground cats roaming so watch your dog. horses and goats in farm area, plenty of room for a nice leg stretch for the dogs."
"The park was beautiful, pull through spot with shade and close to the playground. We only stayed 1 night as they rented our spot. That was the only disappointment."
"Very quiet and peaceful campground tucked away, but still close enough to enjoy Savannah and the beach. Sites are wide and we had full hookups. Enjoyed the dock and seeing the wildlife."
Available this weekend
from $46 - $99 / night
"Spots are tight, you will be very close to your neighbors, but you'll have everything you need, including a fire ring and picnic table. Wi-Fi and cable were also on point. "
"Bring bikes and kayak- you won't be disappointed. We stayed here for 2 months and have been here before and this is one of our favorite places to come. The sites are gravel and level."
"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. "
"Shower, laundry, dog parks, pool, splash pad, workout facility, pickleball courts, and so much more."

"20 minutes away from historic Savannah, but this place really impressed me for my overnight. Had a paved pull through (site 39) and it was ultra clean, level, and everything here seems brand new."
"Campsites 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."
"Campsites 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."
from $37 / night
GuideMilo and I arrived kinda late. I had a quick dehydrated meal and a quick look around with my thermal monocular.
I thought the site were kinda close for a state park. Not my kinda place. We were only passing through.
GuideWe really enjoyed our stay at Red Gate Farms RV Resort. It’s a lovely place with a peaceful, country atmosphere, yet conveniently located just a short distance from downtown Savannah. A great spot to relax and unwind after a day of sightseeing.
One of the biggest bonuses is the Old Town Trolley service, which picks you up at the resort at 9 AM, takes you into downtown Savannah, and brings you back at 4 PM. What a fantastic way to explore the city without having to worry about driving, parking, or navigating the busy streets!
The setting is beautiful, with plenty of open space and a relaxing atmosphere that makes it feel like you’re miles away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
If you’re visiting Savannah in an RV, Red Gate Farms is definitely worth considering. You get the best of both worlds — a peaceful place to stay and easy access to everything this historic city has to offer. We’d happily stay here again!
ScoutPull through sites very accommodating. Trees need trimming. Roads very narrow.
TravelerWe had a great visit. We are self-contained in our Van so we didn’t have to use the facilities. The site was secluded and we were told we were welcome to walk around. He also let us know that if we wanted, we could use the sewer on one of the other sites that wasn’t being used.Also he gave us free firewood very welcoming and friendly. Definitely going back.
RangerI stopped here briefly on my way north because it was convenient to 95. I was a little frustrated at arrival because the office was closed early and I was never given a site number. Thankfully somebody was able to get me sorted. The site itself was nice and spacious. All of the amenities looked new ans clean. Someone in the park left out a large dog that barked all night. Hopefully those scenarios aren't the norm.
ScoutThe campsite has a great space. Bathroom, and laundry were nice and clean.
LegendJust a short drive SE of downtown Savannah, Skidaway Island SP Campground offers a peaceful escape immersed in marshes, maritime forests, and Spanish moss-draped live oaks. Set along Georgia’s Intracoastal Waterway, the park feels remote while still easily accessible not just to civilization, but arguably one of the greatest little cities in the entire South, making it perfect for folks who want to grab a pristine slice of nature without having to sacrifice comfort and / or quick access to shops, restaurants and more salt water taffy shops on the Savannah riverfront than you can imagine.
The campground hosts some 87 tent, trailer and RV sites, many of which include water and electric hookups (usually 30/50 amp), and about 17 premium spots with full hookups. Sites are gravel, shaded, and include a picnic table, fire ring and grill making it ideal for gathering around the campfire. On-site you’ll find incredibly well-kept and clean restrooms with flush toilets, hot showers, a laundry room, dump station and an excellent CG store near the front of the property (near the entrance) for staples like firewood, snacks, ice and souvenirs. There are 3 yurts that the SP will rent you offering enhanced comfort with A/C, heat, kitchens, bathrooms and screened porches - perfect for those seeking a bit more luxury. Pets are allowed in campsites but not in the cabins. Additional features include three pioneer group campsites, a group shelter, laundry facilities, playgrounds and even outdoor fitness equipment with Wi-Fi available at the park office.
What sets Skidaway Island apart from other SPs is, yes, its proximity to an exquisite city, but very much so, the wildlife you'll discover here with deer, fiddler crabs, raccoons and egrets being frequent sightings, which you’ll encounter while experiencing the six miles of hiking trails weaving through salt marsh and maritime forest. The boardwalk and observation tower over the Skidaway Narrows offer scenic glimpses of birdlife and nature. Engaging ranger programs, geocaching and an interpretive center deepen the experience. While close enough to Savannah, if you are not familiar with the area, you should definitely check out Tybee Island (about 30–40 minutes away) to easily combine camping with beach day-trips.
Insider Tips? Oh yeah, I’ve got quite a few for you: (1) For big rigs, book one of the premium full-hookup pull-through sites as they’re roomy and easier to access, although the low-hanging Spanish moss can be tricky to maneuver but will give you tons of shade and creates a peaceful vibe; (2) Even if you’re not staying in a yurt, stop by and check them out as they’re very well made, cozy and well-equipped; (3) Take the Big Ferry and Marsh Trail to the observation tower for sunrise or sunset wildlife viewing where you’ll be richly rewarded, but be sure to bring either that double-walled thermos of coffee for early AM sipping or that cocktail shaker set pre-loaded with your favorite elixir for proper sun-downers; (4) One of the biggest ‘pro tips’ I could give anyone coming to Skidaway is LOAD UP ON FIREWOOD *** BEFORE *** you arrive as every imaginable place that sells firewood within a 20 mile radius was completely out – and while the CG store has a firewood box in front of the store, it was either always locked or out of wood by the time we stopped by; (5) Another huge ‘pro tip’ is given the very close proximity to Publix, which is literally right outside the CG, you don’t really need to load up your coolers too much as you can simply go there whenever you need something, so let Publix keep your supplies cool and save yourself some packing!; (6) Beware of ant infestations – the little guys were literally EVERYWHERE, so I was grateful that I remembered to pack 1 can of ant spray from another bad camping experience, so we sprayed a perimeter around our tent and we were fine; (7) You will also want to be mindful that the black-eyed furry bandits (racoons) were INCREDIBLY aggressive and would actually come straight up to our picnic table and grab things WHILE WE WERE EATING and tried to run away with our bags, food and even a small pot!; and (8) When you grow weary of conjuring up that next meal from your cooler and want to try out some local fare, these are some nearby joints I'd recommend: Castaways, Sandfly BBQ where you’ll want to definitely gnosh on the smoked chicken, baked beans and cole slaw, Crystal Beer Parlor for old school cheesburger’s in a century’s old grocery store and Loc’s Chicken & Waffles, but if you want something truly transformation, venture into Savannah for fantastic dining at The Grey with its sizzlin’ smoking pig and Mrs. Wilkes Boarding House for succulent fried chicken – both of which require advance reservations and likely a better outfit than the one you might be camping in – and finish an excellent bit of dining with some of the best ice cream in the universe over at Leopold’s Ice Cream Parlor.
Happy Camping!
ScoutIf you want country and quiet. This is the place. I enjoy fishing in the altamaha. Approximately half mile from the campground. We go back every year for the last 10 years,
GuideNice staff, within an hour to Charleston and Savanna.
Pooler, Georgia serves as a convenient gateway to several RV camping options within 20-25 minutes of historic Savannah. Campers often use Pooler as a base camp due to its proximity to Interstate 95 and Highway 17, with summer temperatures commonly reaching 90-95°F during peak season. The area features a mix of wetlands and wooded terrain with predominantly flat topography, making it accessible for camping vehicles of all sizes.
Fishing options: 5-10 minute walk from Spacious Skies Savannah Oaks to their fishing pond. The property sits alongside the Ogeechee River. "There's a nice store that's part of the campground, is also fishing and a boat ramp, Wi-Fi was available but not very fast," notes Charlie B.
Farm activities: visit with animals at Red Gate Farms - RV Resort where you can see horses and goats. "We enjoyed walking around the grounds and the staff was friendly throughout our visit. They have multiple locations set up with swinging chairs to take in the views. Visiting with the horses, goats, and peacocks during our walks. Plus there are plentiful water birds to admire," says Jaime W.
Historical site exploration: Fort Pulaski National Monument is about 30 minutes from most Pooler area campgrounds. "Red gate is a hidden gem. This is a beautiful farm of 200 acres situated 5 minutes from downtown Savannah. Everything you could ask for: pool, ponds, horseback riding, goats, beautiful landscaping, room to roam or play," Lea B. mentions.
Level sites: Many campgrounds in the area feature concrete pads or well-maintained gravel sites. At CreekFire RV Resort, "Sites are angled so it makes backing in a breeze! And the concrete pad was almost perfectly level which made setup so quick!" according to Edward S.
Pool amenities: Several resorts offer swimming pools with additional water features. "The best surprise of all, and what makes this place really unique, is the restaurant and bar on the lake where we listened to live music (amazing singer) in Adirondack chairs around a huge, stone fire pit with trendy Edison bulb tea lights strung overhead," Taylor D. shares about CreekFire RV Resort.
Dog-friendly facilities: Many campgrounds accommodate pets with dedicated areas. At Hilton Head National RV Resort, "They have a great, big dog park & an indoor, air conditioned dog spa with several really nice dog wash stationed with temp controlled water, not just cold," explains Amanda W.
Highway noise: Sites closer to I-95 or major roads may experience traffic sounds. At River's End Campground & RV Park, "The campground was full but people were respectful and everyone was quiet by lights out," reports Shauna P.
Site spacing varies significantly: Some parks have tight quarters while others offer more room. "The sites are HUGE 70ft long 20ft wide, full hook ups with a state of the art Eaton control pedestal for your water, cable and electric connections," notes T S. about Hilton Head National RV Resort.
Reservation timing matters: Many parks fill quickly during spring and fall seasons. "Call if you don't see availability online. I've never seen a tent here, but that area in front of the office is good for a tent. We've camped twice in our teardrop in this area, and there was just one truck camper the first time," advises Mary S.
Resort-style amenities: Some parks offer extensive family recreation. "We have a Sprinter Van so we're able to take the last dry camping spot and it was great! Level grass area next to horses it was so peaceful!!" shares Tracey W. about Camp South RV Park.
Playground access: Multiple resorts feature dedicated children's areas. "Campsites 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," reports Illya A. about Camp South RV Park.
Trolley transportation: Some campgrounds offer shuttle services to downtown Savannah, eliminating parking hassles. "You can catch a trolley to downtown Savannah. Trail rides are available," notes Mary S., making exploration more convenient with children.
Site selection strategy: Request sites away from main roads for less noise. "Sites 13 through 17 are full hookup sites out front among sites 1-21 and look like the best ones to me. All of these sites are appropriate for large RVs (think Class A) with long gravel pads," advises Mary S.
Mobile service reliability: Cell coverage varies between parks. "Verizon service is great - we worked from our hotspot the whole trip," reports Ariel F., an important consideration for those needing to stay connected.
Early arrival benefits: Some parks allow early check-in for a small fee. "We wanted to camp 6 days near Hilton Head and this campground opened up late last year. They invested heavily in the camp ground. Large concrete sites easy to back in. Clean, pretty setting. Pool, club house, bar, dog park, dog washing station. even the laundry is first class," shares Cindy about Hilton Head National RV Resort.
