Campgrounds surrounding Port Wentworth, Georgia range from developed RV resorts to state parks with mixed-use facilities. Within a 30-minute drive, campers can access notable locations such as Skidaway Island State Park and Fort McAllister State Park, both offering tent sites, RV hookups, and cabin accommodations. The area features over ten established campgrounds primarily concentrated along the coastal region and major waterways, with options ranging from basic tent camping to full-service RV parks with amenities like swimming pools, boat access, and proximity to historic Savannah.
Access to most campgrounds requires reservations, particularly during the peak spring and summer seasons when coastal Georgia attracts visitors seeking beach and water recreation. Many sites feature level concrete or gravel pads suitable for large RVs, though site availability varies seasonally. A visitor noted, "We enjoyed the well-kept campground and explored the civil war fort which inspired discussions of Georgia's history. The park is located close to necessary needs - hardware and grocery stores." The coastal climate brings hot, humid summers with temperatures regularly exceeding 90°F and mild winters. Insects, particularly mosquitoes and no-see-ums, can be prevalent in warmer months, especially near marshy areas. Hurricane season (June-November) may affect camping plans, with occasional closures during severe weather events.

Waterfront sites at locations like River's End Campground provide direct access to beaches, fishing, and boating opportunities. "We stayed here for 2 months and have been here before and this is one of our favorite places to come. Bring bikes and kayak - you won't be disappointed," reported one camper about Tybee Island camping. Several parks feature Spanish moss-draped live oaks creating shaded, atmospheric sites characteristic of Georgia's low country. Most established campgrounds provide full hookups for RVs, with prices varying significantly between basic state park facilities ($30-60/night) and premium waterfront or resort-style accommodations ($100-200/night). Wildlife viewing opportunities include dolphins, manatees, and numerous bird species throughout the coastal ecosystem, particularly in the early morning and evening hours.

Tuck in the Wood Campground
Kid’s wonderland
I grew up going to this campground every summer. It was and still is some of my favorite memories.
First of all, they have a water slide! The staff let us use it all day long. And there was never any other kids there. We got to keep it all to ourselves. Playground and volleyball area were a plus.
Pond/nature trail were cool. Bathrooms were always super clean and the staff were friendly and helpful.
It’s been a few years since I’ve been back (as an adult now with kids of my own). But I would say over twenty years it has stayed consistent in its performance.
If you’re looking for seclusion this is not the place to pick but the sites aren’t stacked right on top of each other either. Good for RVs and tents. Close to the beach and town.

River's End Campground & RV Park
Week at the beach
Great camping area with dog parks close by. The campground is a little narrow if you are wide but all in all enough room to get through. All the amenities were clean and well kept. The local cat population is standoffish except ol 3 legs he was kind and loved the petting. The grounds are only a few blocks from the beach and it's beautiful! Had no problems here at all, everyone was so friendly!

Not a camping spot
As of May 2026, this is NOT a dispersed camping site. We were told by law enforcement that we could not park or camp here overnight.

Do not stay here EVER
This place is the worst Ive ever stayed at. The office and pool look great. Nothing else does. It looks and feels sketchy and unsafe. If you get stuck anywhere near that highway you will get no sleep. The traffic is constant day and night, loud trucks and speed limit is 55 mph so it like sleeping in the middle of the interstate. We've slept better at a rest area or truck stop. The park feels dirty and dingy, the one side of the park has an 8 ft section of the fence busted out. The only landscaping is at the office. Save your money and find somewhere else or go to a rest area.
Ben H.ScoutHilton Head National RV Resort
Relaxation with amenities galore!
All sites are paved in concrete, and have full hookups, power/ water/ sewer. There is a golf course on-site. The pool has a lazy river. The clubhouse grille serves up alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks, and their menu items are quite tasty.
We thoroughly enjoyed our week here and will definitely come back. We stayed in site 260, in the quiet 21+ section.
Bev B.TravelerLake Jasper RV Park
Nice Clean Park
Small park with small lake. Nice sites, level gravel or grass. Amenities include laundry, rest rooms, showers, wifi. ATT a little sketchy.

Upscale Prime
Quiet, secure, upscale, and in a prime location a few minutes from the beach. Restaurants of all kinds are everywhere. Park the rig and bring your bike, because the trails will lead you to everything.
