SUMMARY PRESENTED BY
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.
The campground landscape near Port Wentworth offers varying experiences based on proximity to water features and urban amenities. 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.

Savannah Lakes RV Resort
Immaculate campground
What a great place to stay! Lots to do here. Shower, laundry, dog parks, pool, splash pad, workout facility, pickleball courts, and so much more.
BGuideSkidaway Island State Park Campground
Gates close at 10, otherwise great
Expensive for a campground in general but not for the region, and I was able to find a discount code online. Staff went out of the way to accommodate arrival after the office closed. Hard refusal to allow entry after 10 to preserve quiet hours, no idea what happens in emergency. Place is big and beautiful, well landscaped with lots of mostly level sites and Spanish moss everywhere. Cell service is sufficient. Proximity to Savannah is a huge deal, it's a nice enough park on its own but this is the best option if you're visiting the city and need power at night.

Great place! Plan to visit again.
We loved this place. We only stayed 1 night but have it on our future list to spend a long weekend when it’s cooler outside. We snuck in a late horseback riding session for the kids. The site was on gravel but fairly level. All the staff were great.

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.
