Best Glamping near Savannah, GA

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.

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!

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!

I’ve never “glamped” before, so I can’t comment much from that perspective. It is not a “luxury” spot. But for us it was better than that because it was fun, comfortable and easy.

About 15 minutes from Ridgeland proper with stores, dining, etc, Stonewood Farm is tucked away in the pines a short dirt road drive off a 2 lane highway.

Kim, the host, is friendly and helpful. She gave us a tour of the farm and introduced us to the animals.

Bring a bag of carrots for the horses.

My son loved the animals and exploring.

The tent/cabin is wood framed with wood and canvas walls. The mattress on the queen bed was awesome. But you will want to spend most of your time outside under the stars and by the fire pit. The area is dark, so good star gazing.

I took pictures of the kitchen items provided.

Great stay. Thanks!
