Best Cabin Camping near Savannah, GA

Felt so surrounded by nature while only being 15 minutes from town. Not to far away from Savannah. I don’t remember what spot we stayed at but the spots were very spacious

We chose this park based on its location. It is about 45 minutes from Savannah, and one hour from Charleston.

The people working here couldn’t be nicer.

The park also has a wine bar and coffee bar.

We try to get to Ft McAllister SP as often as we can. Not too far from Savannah and also close to the other barrier islands. Large, shaded sites, with breezes off the water to keep cool even in summer. hiking, a museum and boat dock. Nice seafood restaurant just outside the park.

This one is one of our absolute favorites. The hosts were awesome. The place is separated from the real world by a long causeway in the salt marsh. It had active wildlife like deer, raccoon, armadillo, etc. And it feels so coastal. It’s maybe 45 or so minutes from Savannah too so that’s nice.

We stayed at Skidaway Island State Park for 4 nights in May. Even thought the park was full (Memorial Day weekend), it never felt crowded. 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. The majority are some mix of pull through or back in with water / electric. There are a handful of nature trails that are easily accessible from the campground. The campground is also a short drive from Savannah, so it’s a great base camp for exploring northeastern Georgia.

We love this park because it is kind of remote, but not far from Savannah. It has great trails, a historic site to explore, a nice little on the water bar/grill close by and large, level, FHU camp sites. They have a few sites that are "on the water", but not actually on the water.  

The trails are great for hiking but a little rough for street bikes. The fishing pier is great for fishing or just viewing. 

The Ft. McAllister historical museum and grounds is very well done and informative.

Fort McAllister is a beautiful state park with lots to do and not too far from Savannah. We stayed here over New Year’s 2020z Check in is at the visitor’s center and then there’s a beautiful drive into the campground. There are docks for boats, plenty of trails and wildlife, a pier you can walk out on and the surrounding plants are amazing. Campsites are plenty spacious enough and it was pretty busy over New Year’s despite it being in the middle of the week so I would suggest booking ahead of time. The drive into the campground was pretty far and was a beautiful drive going over water so if you have bicycles I would highly suggest bringing them because it’s so much more enjoyable riding them around the campground. It’s about a 45 minute drive to Savannah so if you’re planning on driving down there I’d make a day trip out of it. Lots of places to eat at and see in Savannah. There were a few restaurants closer to Fort McAllister but we did not try any of them. Be sure to keep an eye out for some deer!

Beautiful clean park surrounded by nature. Spots are spacious and beautiful. Boat ramp, cannoe rental, store, showers, gorgeous cabins, primitive camping and of course the fort.

Planned a trip with friends to Tybee Island Georgia, just outside Savannah.  It rained the first couple of days we were there, but still were Able to get out and enjoy the sites sounds and food.  Although sites are close together, the park offers , RV sites with full hook up, cabins, pool, beach access and laundry facilities.  Golf cart approved for whole island. The RV park is close to everything!

Just follow the signs to the path that takes you right to the beach. Spend a day basking in the sun, then come back to your RV to settle in for the evening.  There are really good seafood restaurants nearby, an ice cream shop you could walk to  and a cool little diner on the far end of the island that serves marvelous breakfast.  Shopping at stores showcasing local crafters near by.

If it’s beach and sun you want, look no further.  Nice, helpful staff make your stay very pleasant.

Shaded by old moss dripping live oaks, lots of birds, walking paths and a small museum. This park is clean and well maintained with large campsites and lots of privacy. Close to downtown Savannah, yet so wooded you would never know. Also not far from Tybee Island and the Fort Pulaski National Monument.

There are cabins available, as well as primitive tent sites. RV sites are mostly pull through with water, electric and some sewer. The RV dump is clean and also well maintained. There is recycling, that always warms my heart and is hard to find when traveling! The wash rooms and toilets are clean. The are coin operated washers and dryers.

If you value a beautiful forested setting with tons of shade, huge camp sites, and with most hookups (electrical and water) this place is you. Proximity to Savannah historic center is the cherry on top. Oh bike rentals, trails and easy dump station.

Really like the easy access to quite area of the beach. Pool on site. Bathrooms cleaned daily. Good mixture of site options and several cabins. Friendly and helpful staff.

Campsites: Large sites that were graveled and level. We did not have sewer but there were premium sites that did. The ease of access to trails and the beauty of this park make it a favorite with most people. However, we are always disappointed when we come here that there is all this water around us and no way to access it easily from the campground. (That 1/4 mile from Park entrance to boat ramp is about 2 miles from the campground). Don’t worry- our disappointment does not impact the rating on this 5 star park. There are also 3 cabins and a pioneer group camp site.

Random points but all good !

1. Scary biking outside park (no shoulder) but with a mountain or hybrid bike you can ride on grassy shoulder pretty comfortably to some interesting areas—> boat launch at first bridge, fishing pier at second bridge, museum 1/2 mile past second bridge.....
2. You have to sign up for trolley pickup and bus pick up by 6 pm the day before at park office to get transportation to downtown Savannah on Fridays and Saturdays
3. No easy kayak access unless you have a way to drive 1.5 miles to public boat launch (even though campground is surrounded by water). We don’t bring a tow vehicle- and locking up the kayaks at the public boat ramp was NOT a safe choice. (We stop at boat ramp to kayak before we check in to the park and as we depart.)
4. Easy golf cart/bike path to Publix and cute bar
5. Nice campground store
6. Nice book exchange
7. Sprint WiFi was decent
8. 7 miles of Super nice hiking trails
9. RV parking available at visitor center downtown Savannah - daily fee 8-6:30 pm $20 no longer allows overnight . Our 34 foot RV was pushing the size limit and had the lot been full we would not have been able to pull out . (Used to have overnight rv parking but inconsiderate people ruined that)
10. We heard boondocking spaces at convention center were available overnight for a small fee and you can take ferry across river to historic savannah. (Couldn’t find a lot of credible sources to confirm this but we are going to attempt it on next trip.
11. Not gonna bore you with more pictures of Savannah- worth a day trip!

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.

We camped here for 4 nights with our dogs in a tent. We stayed in campsite 52 which was very roomy and private. It was surrounded by palms, pines, and oaks. Electricity and a water spigot was available. You can also stay in one of the three cabins or do pioneer camping in little shelters along the trail. 

The bathhouse was pristine. The volunteers are doing such a fantastic job to keep it clean. The showers were nice and hot and had a good water pressure. 

The visitor center is a 5 to 10 min walk from the campground. It is brand new. It has a well stocked gift shop and a small but very nice native species exhibition. The highlight is a 20 foot tall skeleton of a giant sloth. Perfect for pictures with friends or family. 

The park also offers 6 miles of hiking trails. You meander through marsh land and in the forest. I'm sure when it's warmer you can see more wildlife like reptiles and birds. If you forgot something, there is a Publix about 5 min away. It is also a 20 min ride to downtown Savannah. If you want an excellent meal and service… visit the Olde Pink House. 

We would definitely camp here again but probably not in the hot summer month.

This great little park is nestled into a residential area on Tybee Island. It has all the amenities of a big campground, pool , pavilion, laundry , cabins,full hookups and a cool little general store. Unfortunately for us it was rainy and 40° when we pulled in and it was off season on the island so there wasn't much open. I will be back during the IN season

We have camped here twice now and absolutely love it here. Huge shady sites in beautiful Georgia Marshlands. Very close to downtown Savannah and Tybee Island. We will definitely be back!

My favorite campground...nestled in a maritime forest, the live oaks and Spanish moss, drip and dance around you, lending an air of romance and other- worldly feel.

Skidaway is on an island off Savannah Georgia, accessible over a causeway, that allows a view of the beautiful marsh and river topography. When in the campground, you feel miles away from downtown Savannah, and yet in 15 minutes you have access to the beautiful, and colorful city filled with great food, history, art and music.

This campground is well organized and the staff are proficient at their job.

There is shopping near and wonderful seafood restaurants within a short drive.

The coast of Georgia is a must to explore by boat. Wild islands and beautiful rivers abound.

This is a great family campground, they have very well appointed RV sites, Tent sites and cabins that look like train Cabooses, and some others. but it is super nice and well taken care of. its close to 95 but you really don't notice that. people like this place because there were a lot of return visitors from way out of state. We had neighbors that snowbird in FL but they live in Manitoba, Canada and drive all the way over just to stay there on their way to FL.

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.

Drove over by car from Hilton Head to check it out as a quick getaway. Georgia parks are very well kept with clean bathrooms and showers. Fort McAllister is one that is clean. But we found it primitive even though it has some full hookups with 50 Amps. Lots of shade and woodsy sites, but no water views and limited marsh views. Remote, no bike paths. Did not visit Historic Confederate park.
