Okefenokee RV Park

The rough gravel road leading into this RV park requires slow speeds due to numerous potholes and uneven surfaces. Okefenokee RV Park accommodates rigs up to 65 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections, plus WiFi access and a dump station available year-round.

Reviewers consistently describe tight site spacing and grounds that appear worn, with many long-term residents occupying spots. The park sits close to the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge entrance, making it a potential staging point for swamp exploration, though campers report the overall atmosphere leans more toward permanent residence than short-term camping. For those seeking alternatives, places to camp around Folkston include several options within a few miles of the refuge access points.

Backyard RV Parking Lot

Pulling into Okefenokee RV Park near Folkston, we were hopeful given its proximity to the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, but first impressions felt a bit worn and tired, with uneven gravel, tight site spacing with an overall atmosphere that didn’t quite feel inviting for a family traveling with two energetic boys. While there are basic RV hookups and a straightforward layout that technically puts you close to the refuge entrance, the grounds appeared rough around the edges and not especially well-maintained, and the general vibe leaned more long-term resident than short-term family getaway. We let the boys stretch their legs briefly while we talked to manager in the office, but it didn’t take long before we looked at each other and agreed this wasn’t the right fit for us, especially when what we were craving was a cleaner, more welcoming basecamp for exploring the swamp. Instead of settling in, we packed back up and moved just down the road to Okefenokee Pastimes (check out our review here: https://thedyrt.com/camping/georgia/okefenokee-pastimes-cabins-and-campground/reviews/219187), which felt much closer with a family visit and closer in spirit and location to the refuge experience we were after. For families looking for comfort, cleanliness, and a more intentional home base for exploring the Okefenokee, I would recommend taking a pass here and heading elsewhere, particularly if atmosphere and upkeep matter to you.

Don’t Stop. Just Keep Rolling Past this RV Dump.

It’s a roadside blight that the tiny strip mall storefront does its very best to hide. If you do manage to make it down MAGA lane (yes, that really is the name of the lane that they named as their entrance), you’ll have to slow down to a speed of 3 MPH with all the pot holes and divots that you’ll be driving through. While this is named a ‘park,' I assure you, there’s nothing even remotely linked to enjoyment here. Most of the folks parked in this spot look as though they’ve been 'camped out' here for quite ... some ... time ... with no plans of vacating the premises any time soon. The only upside to this place is that in the storefront that you have to pass in order to enter, you’ll note that they sell firearms and ammunition, so immediately, your sense of security (or fear) is ratcheted up to an all time high. Like I said, don’t stop, just keep rolling past this RV dump.

Happy Camping (somewhere else)!
