Best Campgrounds near Statesboro, GA

249 Reviews

Camping options around Statesboro, Georgia include a mix of established campgrounds and RV parks within a 30-mile radius. George L. Smith State Park Campground in Twin City offers tent sites, RV hookups, and cabins in a natural setting with a cypress-filled lake. Parkwood RV Park provides full hookup sites closer to town, while Beaver Run RV Park in Metter accommodates both tent and RV campers with amenities like electric hookups, water, and sewer connections. Several privately operated campgrounds like Camp South RV Park provide more secluded options with varying levels of amenities.

Reservations are recommended at most established campgrounds, particularly during spring and fall when weather conditions are most favorable. Summer camping brings high humidity and temperatures that regularly exceed 90°F, while winters remain relatively mild. "This is a nice, clean park conveniently located on Highway 25 near downtown Statesboro," noted one camper about Parkwood RV Park. Most campgrounds in the region maintain year-round operations, though seasonal considerations may affect water availability at some locations. Cell service is generally reliable throughout the area, with stronger coverage at campgrounds closer to towns and highways. The terrain is predominantly flat, making most camping areas accessible without specialized vehicles.

Waterfront camping receives consistently positive reviews, particularly at George L. Smith State Park where cypress trees create a distinctive landscape for paddling and fishing. Campers frequently mention the peaceful surroundings and wildlife viewing opportunities at state parks in the region. As one visitor noted about George L. Smith State Park, "Beautiful and quiet with direct access to the lake. Very well maintained." Private RV parks closer to town provide convenient bases for exploring Statesboro and the surrounding area, with several offering amenities like full hookups, WiFi, and shower facilities. For those seeking more seclusion, campgrounds like Camp South RV Park offer "widely spaced" sites in wooded settings, though with fewer amenities and greater distances from services.

    Vidalia Sweet Onion RV Park

    Still Recovering from Hurricane Helen

    There are multiple RV sites available and they have a power supply as well as individual site fresh water RV in-line and RV waste water disposal lines. NEW picnic tables are also located on the plots. Several lamp posts and barbecue grills are in still in a state of disrepair due to the storm damage. This cute little area will bounce back better, but it needs the financial help of other RV enthusiasts to make it wonderful again.

    Lake Jasper RV Park

    Beautiful resort

    Extremely friendly, clean and loaded with amenities which included a covered area which a gas grill and picnic table. Comfortable pool area, and a full-size laundry and clean restrooms. Lake side camp sites with relaxing views. Looking forward to our next visit.

    CreekFire RV Resort

    Overall a good stay, will be back

    Campground is super clean and friendly staff. Love having the resort like pool/lazy river/splash pad.

    Sites are packed in pretty well, but they do a good job dividing them off from one another so it doesn't feel too cramped. Unfortunately not a lot of shade to be found.

    Sites are angled so it makes backing in a breeze! And the concrete pad was almost perfectly level which made setup so quick!

    Hidden Forest RV Club

    Cute little campground

    Open field campground with minimal amenities (no bath/showers) and FHU. Off the main roads and very quiet. Farm animals and trails a plus.

    Magnolia Springs State Park Campground

    Cute, well maintained

    Campground very well kept. Friendly staff. Not as small as pictures suggest. Sites nicely spread around so while there’s no vegetation in between, there’s privacy. Historic site and the spring are cute. Big gators. Only one site has water views, 16.

    Jack Hill State Park

    Should be a City Park

    Super tiny, tiny lake, in the middle of town, trails closed, maintenance ok, tons of ants, couple of nice sites with eater views although site 18 is right on top of the one to its left so terrible view. Good: fishing and full hookups.

    Spacious Skies Savannah Oaks

    More greed than hospitality

    My biggest regret is that I didn't read the reviews before booking. I'm usually very tolerant of small issues and I feel that hospitality goes a long way. Unfortunately, the issues weren't small and the hospitality was non-existent. But when we arrived at Spacious Skies RV park in Savannah we were made to feel unwelcome from the very beginning. We arrived at 11:15 am and were told we could only enter the park after 12:00pm after paying a$10 early check in fee. There were several empty sites but we were refused entry and told to go away and come back after noon. Our site#67 was a very small dirt and gravel spot just steps away from a busy highway. Honestly, we would have been better off at an interstate rest area. This is consistent with some of the reviews I've seen on their own website. Here's a summary of what I found: REVIEWS* Unreasonable refund policies.* Little or no flexibility for early or late check-ins* Some guests refused check-in after 8pm, even in cases out of their control, such as heavy traffic. Don't bother calling, they offer no exceptions.* Excessive fees and rules* Claims of racism* No sleeping in hammocks, even on a freestanding frame* Small, dirty and noisy sites too close to the highway.*Cockroaches*Turned away because RVs were not"factory made"*Dirty facilities. POLICIES AND FEES:* No check-in before noon, or after 8pm.(This is enforced, but not on the agreement you must docusign upon booking)* For an extra fee($10?) you can"lock-in" your chosen site.*$10 fee for guests who may wish to visit.*$10 fee for fishing.*$25 per pet per reservation* Retractable leashes MUST be less than 6 feet in length.* Pets must have a tag on their collar with the owner's phone number.* Golf carts(electric only) must be registered and inspected. Factory made golf carts only.* Prohibited Items: include, but are not limited to, flags, stickers, garden displays or site decor that are political in nature...* Apparently, there are some similar restrictions on speech. But they do encourage"...flags, stickers, garden displays or site decor that are meant to celebrate personal identity in a non-aggressive manner."* When you sign the agreement, you're also agreeing to allow them to use your photo in their advertisements. As long as they can extract as much money from you as possible, they will tolerate your presence. Due to their draconian refund policies, we wound up forfeiting all of the money we paid. In the end I don't regret it. We went about a mile down the road to Creekfire RV park where we were warmly greeted and immediately given a last-minute reservation for a lakeside spot with a wonderful view. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy all of their amenities, such a pool with a lazy river and a lakeside restaurant. There's also a KOA in Richmond Hill just a few miles to the south with friendly staff, lakeside sites and several restaurants.

    Pine Hill Camp

    Nice quiet place

    Not a lot of level spots around but we found a spot that worked for our 37' fifth wheel with some leveling. Were also able to position for decent solar exposure. T-mobile was pretty much useless, AT&T provided a little bit of usable signal. Had it to ourselves for 3 days and the road going past was very quiet. Speaking of the road, it's a sandy dirt road with some soft spots so pay attention. Lovely quiet place to relax or work! We would come again.
