    Several RV resorts near Bluffton maintain year-round operation, with peak season rates reflecting the area's popularity as a coastal destination.

      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.

      Bellinger Hill RV Park

      Hidden Single Lane RV Parking Pasture

      Located just due north and only about 20 minutes away from one of the most amazing southern urban destinations – Savannah – and 22 miles to one of the most coveted beaches on the entire eastern seaboard at Hilton Head, South Carolina, you’ll discover an off-the-beaten path, singular lane that offers up RV slots on either side of its pebble-strewn driveway. While you might enjoy the absolute simplicity of this pet-friendly RV hook-up joint, you likely will be very disappointed by the single dimensionality of this place where there are many more full-time residents than there are those overnight victims of wanderlust. That said, if you are looking for (the most) inexpensive place to park your mobile living room and don’t mind having ANY environmental aesthetics to contend with, then Bellinger Hill RV Park may be just for you! 

      Again, there’s a single lane here, so you really have two options to choose from: (1) will I park right or left?; and (2) do I prefer to be near the entrance or as far back from it (and nearest the remote dump station – added bonus!) as possible? And if you simply don’t care or don’t have the option of choosing (as the place was pretty well jam packed when we stopped by for a visit), then whichever slot you select (or are given) then, you’ll be perfectly fine. For those that are thinking – I just need a place to plant my mobile house for a night or two and it really doesn’t matter, because I have a car (or Uber) that can take me into Savannah to enjoy the best of this southern urban charm without the hefty price tag, then great, this is the spot for you! 

      Amenities: pet-friendly spaces everywhere, cable TV access, complimentary WiFi, back-in full-hook-up (30 / 50 electric, water, sewage), coin-operated laundry facilities, vending machines, designated dumpster, scattered trash bins and picnic tables. 

      Insider’s Tips? Here’s a few: (1) Come hauling some form of watercraft and looking for a sweet spot to dip your starboard into? Then look no further than the Savannah River, which if you are staying near or at Bellinger Hill RV Park, then you would have had to come from Savannah to this spot via the single lane highway 17, and just shortly after passing the second fork of the Savannah River, then head east (it’s simple as it will be your first right after getting off the bridge), where you’ll find no fewer than a dozen perfect spots to launch your kayak or canoe; (2) If you’d like to explore the amazing coastline in and around Savannah, check out little Tybee Island, which is a gem destination of Georgia’s barrier islands and is only a 20 minute drive from Red Gate Campground; (3) When you get tired of thinking about planning and preparing for that next meal, you’re in great luck because … you’re only 20 minutes from the foodie capital of Georgia and have so many southern-inspired haute cuisine legends like Cotton & Rye, The Grey and Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room; (4) One of our most favorite places to visit in all of Savannah is Forsyth Park, which is centrally located in the city and provides for a great green spot to spread out a picnic blanket, take in the sun and cloud-gaze underneath the canopy of ancient Oaks just dripping with Spanish Moss; and (5) Infatuated with ice cream?! Then you won’t want to miss the best (and oldest) ice cream parlour in the entire South by paying a visit to Leopold’s – and do be sure to get a taste of the lemon custard or the rum bisque – simply OUTSTANDING! 

      Happy Camping!

      Happy Campers RV Park

      Quite, close to Ft. Stewart

      Stayed there for 4 nights while bow hunting Ft. Stewart. It's only 15 minutes to the front gate. While we were there it seemed like a pretty quite place, even  on the weekend. Spaces are pretty close to each other and most of the park is permanent buildings which appear to be for long term residences.

      We were not around during the day but at night it was plenty quite. No fire pit but we did have a picnic table. Parking was on a concrete pad next to the RV.

      Cell signal was good on T-Mobile. I recorded download speeds of 57 Mbps and uploads of 1.79 Mbps.

      All and all I'd stay there again the lady I spoke with to make the reservation was quite helpful and emailed a copy of the campground map with directions. We used Passport America so our rate was $24.50 per night. I'd stay there again and likely will on our next hunt.

      Fort McAllister State Park Campground

      Beautiful sunsets!

      We are a big rig, a 44' fifth wheel and longer with a hydraulic motorcycle lift on the back.  We were able to fit into the state park.  In our two years of full-timing, it's the first time we've even tried.  Yes, some of the roads are tight, but I'm confident we'll be able to get out just as easily. 

      Staff was very friendly.  The gift shop has some really cute / neat stuff in it.  They even have a little museum to walk through (for a small cost), which we haven't done yet.  (Arrived about 4, closes at 5pm (at least on Sunday.))

      Site has a firepit, and it's a large pull through(those side pull throughs off the main road). Great water pressure. AT&T connection, 68ms ping, 18.46 down, 5.81 up. Good enough for my work.

      Highly recommend Fish Tales restaurant, which you'll pass on the way in.  There's a Publix just a few miles away for groceries.  Pretty good wine selection!  Even a small, but sufficient, liquor store next door.

      Sunshine RV Park

      Considering an extended stay to visit Savannah - consider Sunshine RV Park

      First of all, Sunshine RV Park is VERY MUCH in business! We stayed here for a month during September 2024. What has happened… the original owner William L.“Bill” Bruner passed June 2022 and now his grandson Michael Bruner is running Sunshine RV Park LLC. We stayed here 20 yrs ago and much has changed and for the better. Sunshine RV Park now has about 70 level concrete RV sites. The RV sites are about 65 ft in length of which 50 ft is poured concrete with a concrete patio. We have a 45ft motorcoach and we fit on our site just fine. All of the sites have 50/30/15 amp electric, water(good tasting/good pressure) and sewer. No problems with electric voltage even in the hot Georgia summertime. And new concrete sites are being added at this time. Lots of area to add more RV sites. Michael is doing a great job as the new owner of Sunshine RV Park. Michael manages the RV park full-time and has help. Someone to cut grass/weed trimming around the RV sites and someone to pick up any trash and help maintain the RV Park. RV sites are being improved ongoing. We use T-Mobile and get a consistent 550-600 mbps down and 10-15 mbps up speeds. With T-Mobile we achieved 5GUC 2-3 bars the majority of the time at the RV Park. We also have a T-Mobile 4G hot spot and achieved speeds of 15-20 mpbs down and 5-15 mbps up. No problems streaming at all. 

      Sunshine RV Park is big rig friendly. No rocks to navigate around and no overhead tree limbs to worry about. Plenty of room between RV’s. All of the sites are back-in except one site which is pull-thru. Sunshine RV Park is pet friendly and has lots of grass for your pet. Just make sure to pick-up after your pet, keep them on a leash at all times and no disturbing of neighbors by your pet. All commonsense rules to live by. Now let me say this… Sunshine RV Park has mostly long-term contract area workers. Advance reservations are needed to stay at Sunshine RV Park. Rif-raff is not tolerated at all by the owner, and it is very quiet here after dusk. I would say that about 60 of the 70 sites are long-term RV’ers. This being said, if you are a traveler and are looking for someplace in the Savannah area to stay, consider Sunshine RV Park IF you want to stay for 1 to 4 weeks or more. You must have a self-contained RV– no tenters. No playground/swimming pool or other RV resort amenities here, but you are only 7 miles to the Savannah Historic District, a 7-minute drive to Kroger grocery and CVS/Walgreens or a 10-minute drive to a Wal-Mart Supercenter. Lots and lots of fantastic area restaurants to choose from that feature great southern-style cooking! Sunshine RV Park is a safe and quiet(an occasional jet flying overhead) place to park your RV as it’s in a residential area. On Sunshine Avenue is the Georgia Public Safety Training Center- a training complex for all Georgia state and local public safety agencies. The Garden City Public Library, the Police/Fire Dept/EMS are all less than a mile from the RV Park. The owner’s home is next to Sunshine RV Park, and he drives around the RV Park to ensure its safety. Amazon local delivery, Wal-Mart grocery local delivery, UPS and FedEx all serve Sunshine RV Park as we had deliveries from all four during our stay. There is a farmers’ market at Forsyth Park every Saturday year-round from 9:00 AM-1:00 PM featuring a variety of farm goods and prepared foods. We did encounter a minor problem with USPS mail. USPS does not deliver to this address unless you register with the Post Office prior to receiving postal mail. To have our USPS postal mail received, we used Post Office General Delivery Service and picked up our mail at the Savannah Post Office downtown. The Savannah Visitor Center on MLK is a great resource to help plan your area adventure. Savannah is a walking town. Savannah has squares and parks, and these are the community's most beloved icons. Originally designed with 24 squares, 22 remain today to be enjoyed by the millions who walk these grassy utopias every year. If I was to mention a negative, driving down Sunshine Ave. we did encounter some tree branches. No damage to our RV but do drive slowly. Sunshine Ave. is only a half-mile long street and the RV park is on the left side at the end of the street. The RV Park’s office has a large sign on it with the address and phone number of Sunshine RV Park. We truly enjoyed our 1 month stay here at Sunshine RV Park and absolutely enjoyed our visit to beautiful and historical Savannah, Georgia. We hope the information we have provided will help you plan your visit to Savannah.

      Update- I had given a copy of our review of Sunshine RV Park to the owner about a week prior to a departure. Michael had read that I had commented on our encounter of some tree branches along Sunshine Ave. and trimmed them back nicely! Even trimming tree branches of private property owners who's homes border Sunshine Ave. IMO, this owner truly cares about this business.

      Hilton Head Harbor

      Snooty RV Resort Right on the Water

      Given the well-healed surrounding isle that you have transported yourself to, it should be an assumption that whatever you experience here on HHI is going to cost a bit more, feel a bit smoother and last a bit longer in the memory banks of moments shared. This incredibly well-landscaped, pet-friendly RV outpost sits on the northwestern corner of Hilton Head and from the very moment you exit Route 278 / William Hilton Parkway, you will feel as though you’ve been whisked away to a secluded wooden forest of ancient and live oaks bathing the sunscape in Spanish moss as you make your way to the entrance of Hilton Head Harbor RV Resort.

      Upon entry, you’ll be confused as to where to park as there’s plenty of roadside (apparently public) parking with your first view of the water, which isn’t quite yet the Atlantic, but instead, Skull Creek. While you will be attracted to stop and pull over here as the amazing view will lure you to steer to one of the number of vacant parking spaces, don’t. Instead, take a left and head to the main office where you’ll check-in, but be careful, what looks like the main office, actually isn’t – that first small building you’ll spot is just for rentals and tours (despite the sign indicating RESERVATIONS), so keep on heading in the direction of the larger building just beyond the first one. And while the scenery is amazing, we were less-than-impressed by the non-existent staff at reception – in fact, reception was closed when we arrived… at 8am, mind you, on a Saturday morning nonetheless, when me thinks most folks would be checking in – and we were told to wait until someone opened up the office, which didn’t happen for another 1½ hours. Once checked in, you’ll easily find your slot here amongst the 200 or so back-in (no pull-thru sites that we saw) RV slots all of which offer up 30 / 50 amp electric, water & sewage.

      Amenities include: tennis courts, (2) heated pools and jacuzzis, bath house and restrooms, horseshoe pits, kids playground, designated dumpsters, covered pavilions, fishing pier, boat, kayak and jet ski rentals, recreational area, assorted picnic areas, dolphin, fishing& watersports tour facility, sun deck, marketplace, fuel dock, exercise room/ gym, WiFi, cable TV, laundr-O-mat, 5 star on-site restaurant (see below Insider's Tip #1), wet & dry saunas, full-fledged working marina and, of course, direct access to the beautiful Atlantic Ocean and the amazing beaches that await you here at HHI. One huge bummer is that none of the sites have a fire ring, which seems like a basic thing, especially at a luxe location like this.

      This RV campground offers up concrete pads in an incredibly well-manicured space that offers up 12 amazing oceanfront sites (#53 - 65) that will provide you with walking distance access to the amazing Sunset Grille restaurant along with a designated picnic area. If you are not fortunate enough or don’t want to splurge on such accommodations, you’ll have your pick of 10 or so other RV micro-communities here, so depending upon whether you want to be as close to the action (sites #182 – 200), which places you around the tennis / pool / hot tub / bath house fulcrum, or on an outer loop (either #24 – 52 OR #1 – #23) or one of the 6 interior loops, there’s a very smooth, well-appointed concreted slab of paradise awaiting you here.

      Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) While you are obviously aware of the substantial dining options available to you here at Hilton Head, made even more abundant if you were to include not too distant Savannah, you’ll be blown away by the fact that you don’t need to jump in your RV or vehicle to find some succulent servings, in fact, just head on over to Sunset Grille, which is connected to this RV resort and has startling views of the Atlantic Ocean all while offering up typical low country dishes like shrimp & grits, buttermilk fried pork chop and brined fried chicken; (2) At $199 / night for waterfront sites during peak seasons and $119 for interior sites during the same time frame, I find this RV depot somewhat overpriced, but hey, it’s Hilton Head – if you want value for $ being this close to the water, then manage your expectations or head southwest to Alabama Shores – otherwise, enjoy the ritzy RV life here; (3) If you would like to become educated on the area that you are laying your head down at each night, then it is worth the time investment to check out Gullah Museum of Hilton Head, which has absolutely amazing exhibitions and a wonderful facilitated tour of the historical significance of Hilton Head Island and the surrounding area; (4) Should you elect to get some decent hiking in, just about 15 minutes from where you are parked there’s Victoria Bluff Heritage Preserve; (5) If you are on the look-out for some amazing encounters with nature, we were able to spot dolphins, manatees and stingrays from the dock here at the resort!; and (6) In the event that you need to load up on any supplies, just head due east and within 7-10 minutes, you’ll encounter a Jarvis Creek General Store, Walmart Supercenter, Publix and Harris Teeter.

      Happy Camping!

      Skidaway Island State Park Campground

      One of our favorites

      We stayed here for a week and really enjoyed it. We had a pull through site with full hookups. The sites are well spaced with trees in between most sites. There are 4-5 miles of trails in the park that are close to the campground. We had 1-2 bars of Verizon and 2-3 bars of AT&T. We got quite a few OTA channels that came in really good. The dump station was across from our site, but it wasn't too bad. I'd definitely stay here again. Some roads were a little narrow and tight to navigate with trees. The only issue we had is they turned off the water without notice one of the days we were there and it was off for over an hour. We camped at Skidaway Island State Park in a Fifth Wheel.

      Skidaway Island State Park Campground

      Stone’s Throw to Savannah for Live Oak Shaded Camping & Salt Marshes

      Just a short drive SE of downtown Savannah, Skidaway Island SP Campground offers a peaceful escape immersed in marshes, maritime forests, and Spanish moss-draped live oaks. Set along Georgia’s Intracoastal Waterway, the park feels remote while still easily accessible not just to civilization, but arguably one of the greatest little cities in the entire South, making it perfect for folks who want to grab a pristine slice of nature without having to sacrifice comfort and / or quick access to shops, restaurants and more salt water taffy shops on the Savannah riverfront than you can imagine.

      The campground hosts some 87 tent, trailer and RV sites, many of which include water and electric hookups (usually 30/50 amp), and about 17 premium spots with full hookups. Sites are gravel, shaded, and include a picnic table, fire ring and grill making it ideal for gathering around the campfire. On-site you’ll find incredibly well-kept and clean restrooms with flush toilets, hot showers, a laundry room, dump station and an excellent CG store near the front of the property (near the entrance) for staples like firewood, snacks, ice and souvenirs. There are 3 yurts that the SP will rent you offering enhanced comfort with A/C, heat, kitchens, bathrooms and screened porches - perfect for those seeking a bit more luxury. Pets are allowed in campsites but not in the cabins. Additional features include three pioneer group campsites, a group shelter, laundry facilities, playgrounds and even outdoor fitness equipment with Wi-Fi available at the park office.

      What sets Skidaway Island apart from other SPs is, yes, its proximity to an exquisite city, but very much so, the wildlife you'll discover here with deer, fiddler crabs, raccoons and egrets being frequent sightings, which you’ll encounter while experiencing the six miles of hiking trails weaving through salt marsh and maritime forest. The boardwalk and observation tower over the Skidaway Narrows offer scenic glimpses of birdlife and nature. Engaging ranger programs, geocaching and an interpretive center deepen the experience. While close enough to Savannah, if you are not familiar with the area, you should definitely check out Tybee Island (about 30–40 minutes away) to easily combine camping with beach day-trips.

      Insider Tips? Oh yeah, I’ve got quite a few for you: (1) For big rigs, book one of the premium full-hookup pull-through sites as they’re roomy and easier to access, although the low-hanging Spanish moss can be tricky to maneuver but will give you tons of shade and creates a peaceful vibe; (2) Even if you’re not staying in a yurt, stop by and check them out as they’re very well made, cozy and well-equipped; (3) Take the Big Ferry and Marsh Trail to the observation tower for sunrise or sunset wildlife viewing where you’ll be richly rewarded, but be sure to bring either that double-walled thermos of coffee for early AM sipping or that cocktail shaker set pre-loaded with your favorite elixir for proper sun-downers; (4) One of the biggest ‘pro tips’ I could give anyone coming to Skidaway is LOAD UP ON FIREWOOD *** BEFORE *** you arrive as every imaginable place that sells firewood within a 20 mile radius was completely out – and while the CG store has a firewood box in front of the store, it was either always locked or out of wood by the time we stopped by; (5) Another huge ‘pro tip’ is given the very close proximity to Publix, which is literally right outside the CG, you don’t really need to load up your coolers too much as you can simply go there whenever you need something, so let Publix keep your supplies cool and save yourself some packing!; (6) Beware of ant infestations – the little guys were literally EVERYWHERE, so I was grateful that I remembered to pack 1 can of ant spray from another bad camping experience, so we sprayed a perimeter around our tent and we were fine; (7) You will also want to be mindful that the black-eyed furry bandits (racoons) were INCREDIBLY aggressive and would actually come straight up to our picnic table and grab things WHILE WE WERE EATING and tried to run away with our bags, food and even a small pot!; and (8) When you grow weary of conjuring up that next meal from your cooler and want to try out some local fare, these are some nearby joints I'd recommend: Castaways, Sandfly BBQ where you’ll want to definitely gnosh on the smoked chicken, baked beans and cole slaw, Crystal Beer Parlor for old school cheesburger’s in a century’s old grocery store and Loc’s Chicken & Waffles, but if you want something truly transformation, venture into Savannah for fantastic dining at The Grey with its sizzlin’ smoking pig and Mrs. Wilkes Boarding House for succulent fried chicken – both of which require advance reservations and likely a better outfit than the one you might be camping in – and finish an excellent bit of dining with some of the best ice cream in the universe over at Leopold’s Ice Cream Parlor.

      Happy Camping!

    Guide to Bluffton

    RV campgrounds in Bluffton, South Carolina serve as convenient bases for exploring coastal South Carolina and nearby Georgia. Positioned within the Lowcountry region at an elevation of just 30 feet above sea level, the area experiences humid subtropical conditions with mild winters and hot, humid summers. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 90°F with high humidity levels making evening camping more comfortable than daytime activities.

    What to do

    Kayak the Savannah River: Launch points near Hardeeville provide access to the waterway. "Come hauling some form of watercraft and looking for a sweet spot to dip your starboard into? Then look no further than the Savannah River, which if you are staying near or at Bellinger Hill RV Park, then you would have had to come from Savannah to this spot via the single lane highway 17," notes a visitor.

    Walk through Spanish moss: The area's oak trees create distinctive landscapes. "We love this campground. Sites are close together but who cares when your there for the beach. Staff is wonderful and helpful. Grounds are clean and kept. 2 blocks from north beach. Downside is having to pay for parking passes," remarks a visitor to River's End Campground & RV Park.

    Farm visit opportunities: Some campgrounds offer agricultural experiences. "This is a beautiful farm of 200 acres situated 5 minutes from downtown Savannah. Everything you could ask for: pool, ponds, horseback riding, goats, beautiful landscaping, room to roam or play," shares a camper at Heirloom Hamlet.

    What campers like

    Pet amenities: Many RV parks have dedicated facilities for four-legged campers. "We did take our Maltese and he ended up needing a bath so my girls took him to the dog wash area which they said was set up like a groomers shop. They also had a fenced in dog park area," explains a visitor to Hilton Head National RV Resort.

    Downtown Savannah access: Several campgrounds provide transportation options to historic districts. "You can catch a trolley to downtown Savannah. Trail rides are available," reports a camper at Red Gate Farms - RV Resort.

    Clean bath facilities: Travelers note the quality of shower facilities varies significantly. "Bathroom and shower were very clean and spacious. Close to downtown and walkable to beaches," mentions a visitor to River's End Campground about their amenities.

    What you should know

    Campground layouts: Site proximity varies greatly between properties. "Yes, the sites are close together. If you have that expectation and get past that your neighbor will be close, then it is a nice place. We spent most of our time riding bikes on the bike path and on the beach," notes a camper at Spacious Skies Savannah Oaks.

    Reservation timing: Many parks require significant advance booking. "Reserve now for this Christmas/New Years eve. This place fills up fast," advises a camper about River's End Campground.

    Alternative facilities: Some smaller campgrounds utilize non-traditional setups. "Toilet is liquid in the front and solid in the back, so everyone has to sit down to use the toilet. The shower is outside, with an open bottom. Heated water and changing room with a mirror," reports a visitor to Heirloom Hamlet.

    Tips for camping with families

    Pool options: Pool facilities vary widely between properties. "They have a large pool with lazy river and a very nice playground. The bathrooms/bathhouse is very luxurious. It honestly reminded me of the a high end hotel resort," shares a family staying at Hilton Head National RV Resort.

    Transportation rentals: Consider renting golf carts at larger resorts. "We are renting a golf cart next time we go so we can ride around the entire park because it is very large," mentions a family at Hilton Head National.

    Beach proximity: Factor in actual distance to shorelines. "From the add it looks close to the beach but it's not," cautions a camper at River's End Campground about managing expectations.

    Tips from RVers

    Connectivity considerations: Internet quality varies between campgrounds. "The internet is GOOD! in the afternoon of our arrival. I have streamed some HD video and it is solid. I didn't bother setting up the EARTHLINK dish which would work well here because it is mostly open sky," notes a visitor to Savannah Lakes RV Resort.

    Site surfaces: RV pad materials differ between properties. "Nice concrete pad, pull through and we are just going to leave the car connected," reports a camper at Savannah Lakes.

    Payment policies: Several parks have restrictive payment methods. "Len Thomas RV Park doesn't accept either credit or debit cards, so checks, cash or money orders are the only acceptable payment," warns a traveler about payment preparation.
