    Cabretta Island Pioneer Campground

    My favorite place to camp!

    I love this campground! Plenty of trees for hammock camping, which is what I prefer, as well as many options for tent set ups. They do have Adirondacks on site for camping. Established fire pit, large covered pavilion with multiple picnic tables, electrical hookups located within pavilion and a shower house equip with sinks and toilets. Walking distance to the beach. Very beautiful! Bike and kayak rental available through on site camp host. Ice and firewood for purchase. You take a ferry to sapelo island, then a bus takes you to Cabretta Campground. Heaven on earth, just don’t forget the bug spray.

    Skidaway Island State Park Campground

    Beautiful Park in Great Location

    This state park is close to a lot of things to do.  Very close to Wormslow Historic Site and Savannah.  The campground is really nice with large trees and lots of hanging moss.  We were in site 61 that was very deep and secluded with our picnic table set back from the road.  We had to park our camper crooked because of a tree and roots.  The bath house was nice and clean.  However the heat was broken on the hand blower in the women's side.

    There are sites with full hook ups.  There are also nice trails with one that leads to an observation deck.  Also have bike rentals.

    Savannah South KOA

    Beautiful & Clean

    This was our very first camping trip (2 adults, 2 kids & a Lab.) We arrived to friendly service & easily found our site (#6.) The tent sites are right on the water, which is home to swans, ducks, turtles & possibly gators too! The sandy pad for our tent was perfect, very level & comfortable. There was plenty of room for our big screened canopy, picnic table, chairs & fire ring. The views from the lake were wonderful & t made waking up to see the sunrise worth it every day.

    This campground is about 30mins from Savannah & Tybee Island - both of which we visited & enjoyed.

    The bathhouse & general store were very clean & located a short walk from the tent sites. There is also a playground & pool. The campground was quiet, we had no issues at all.

    We will definitely be returning soon!

    River's End - Well Kept KOA

    Mainly a RV park, but about a dozen tent pads (fine gravel, well kept, no trash) in grassy lots with picnic table and fire pit. Family style bathroom/ showers. Office with coffee, games, books. Host on golf cart was helpful with last minute arrival and places to eat on island. 3 block walk to beach. There was also a larger group camping area - saw a scout troop there - these sites had water and power.

    Skidaway Island State Park Campground

    Lots of options

    I 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.

    Skidaway Island State Park Campground

    Simply wonderful !

    Skidaway Island SP is quite possibly the nicest state park camping facility we’ve yet to visit! The sites are beyond spacious and afford plenty of privacy - and the hookups were conveniently situated at both sites we utilized during our visit. Huge, level tent pads for tent camping are also provided, as are picnic tables and fire rings. Shower and toilet facilities were clean and in excellent repair. The brand-new visitors center is beautiful and staff were courteous & professional to a person! Bird life is abundant and we had deer show up every day to check on us. Hiking trails are outstanding and the picnic/playground areas are fantastic. Skidaway Island SP is a gem with the added bonus of being just a 15 minute drive to downtown Savannah - we will undoubtedly be returning!

    Skidaway Island State Park Campground

    Fantastic camping closer to Savannah

    This state Park keeps a very nice huge campground. It is well maintained. Our site was next to a new bathhouse with individual rooms for showers and restrooms. The sites are very spacious with a tent pads, picnics tables and a fire ring. They have full service sites and water/electric sites as well as tent sites. Dump station available as well. A very quiet and dark campground 25 minutes to Savannah, 30 minutes to Tybee Island.

    Skidaway Island State Park Campground

    Largest campsites, great separation

    Arrived here for a four-night tent stay. Easy drive in from Tomoka State Park up I-95. Got the last spot at #62 which is very large and has a large tent pad. The electric and water hookups are on the edge of the street, so I had to use both the 75 and 25 foot extension cords to give power to the tent. There's a fire pit and a large picnic table. The restrooms are clean, as well as the laundry room. The dumpster and recycling bin are a bit far from 62, so bring your bicycle, lol. Deer were roaming the grounds in the early morning. Lots of birds singing at sunrise too. Great place. The 45-min drive up to Tybee Island Beach is totally worth it, with beautiful marshes and flatlands along the way. Beach photos included here.


Guide to Richmond Hill

Cabin rentals near Richmond Hill, Georgia provide rustic to modern accommodations within 30 minutes of Savannah. The coastal region sits at just 15-30 feet above sea level with mild winters and humid summers. Mosquitoes remain active year-round, even in December, requiring campers to pack repellent regardless of season.

What to do

Explore Civil War history: Fort McAllister State Park hosts an annual Civil War reenactment of Sherman's final battle on his march to the sea. According to one camper, "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" (Fort McAllister State Park Campground).

Go fishing: Altamaha Regional Park offers water access for fishing enthusiasts with boat launch facilities. "Great place to camp if you have a boat. Shore fishing is limited. They have a fishing pier, but it's small and you have limited areas to cast," notes one visitor, who appreciated the affordable rates of just $16 for a Saturday night stay.

Visit Savannah: Skidaway Island State Park serves as a convenient base for exploring northeastern Georgia. A camper shared, "The campground is also a short drive from Savannah, so it's a great base camp for exploring northeastern Georgia" (Skidaway Island State Park Campground). Most sites offer water and electric hookups.

What campers like

Spacious sites: At Skidaway Island, campsites feature ample room for equipment and activities. "The spaces are very large and spread out. Many of the campsites have gorgeous Live Oak trees covered in Spanish Moss. The center sites in the campground are pull through with full hookups," explains one reviewer.

Wildlife viewing: Fort McAllister provides opportunities to see various animals in their natural habitat. "Excellent camping experience even if the racoons are little geniuses. Nice nature walks and friendly people," reports one camper (Fort McAllister State Park Campground). Multiple reviews mention deer, birds, and other wildlife sightings.

Water features: Savannah South KOA includes a lake with waterfowl. One visitor commented, "The campground is nice and clean and right on a lake with a multitude of waterfowl including a large number of swans." Cabin accommodations here range from basic to deluxe units with varying amenities.

What you should know

Seasonal challenges: Fort McAllister State Park experiences insects year-round. A visitor noted, "One thing we didn't expect, even in Savannah in December, was mosquitoes." Another camper warned, "When I was here in April the flies were awful but they went away when the sun went down. Haha but that's when the Raccoons come out to play! Do NOT leave food or trash unattended or they will ransack your campsite" (Fort McAllister State Park Campground).

Access restrictions: Some locations have gate closing times that limit evening activities. At Skidaway Island, "Gate locks at 10 pm which really is not enough time if you want a night downtown."

Flooding concerns: Heavy rain can affect site conditions. One Skidaway Island camper reported, "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."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Fort McAllister State Park provides recreation areas for children. A visitor shared, "My kids loved the playground and the fort tour!!" (Fort McAllister State Park Campground). Similarly, Skidaway Island features "two large playgrounds for kids."

Nature education: Skidaway Island State Park offers learning opportunities through their nature center.

Beach proximity: River's End Campground on Tybee Island allows for beach day trips. A camper noted, "Close to downtown and walkable to beaches" with "clean bathroom and shower" facilities that are "spacious" (River's End Campground & RV Park). Cabin rentals here provide family accommodations without camping equipment.

Tips from RVers

Site selection: At Skidaway Island, specific areas offer better amenities. "The center sites in the campground are pull through with full hookups. The majority are some mix of pull through or back in with water/electric," advises one RVer.

Space considerations: Campgrounds vary significantly in site spacing. At River's End Campground, "The campground is very clean, and has really friendly employees. Why I gave it three stars: The spots are stacked on top of each other, and it's all gravel" (River's End Campground & RV Park).

Parking surfaces: Site conditions affect equipment setup and comfort. Spacious Skies Savannah Oaks provides improved sites but has limitations. One visitor commented, "It's old and appears to not have funds invested back into the property. Choose Creekfire just up the street if possible."
