    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Lake Jasper RV Park features fenced dog areas where pets can run off-leash after traveling. The campground maintains a pet-friendly atmosphere with well-kept waste stations throughout the property, making cleanup convenient for dog owners. Full hookup sites accommodate both RVs and tent campers, with concrete pads providing stable surfaces during rainy conditions. The campground enforces standard leash requirements when pets are outside designated off-leash zones. Skidaway Island State Park Campground and River's End Campground & RV Park both welcome pets with various accommodation options including cabins, RV sites, and tent camping areas. Clean facilities and spacious sites ensure comfortable stays for pets and their owners. The soil remains firm even after rain, preventing muddy paws when walking dogs around the campground.

    The adjacent walking trails provide excellent exercise opportunities for dogs, with several miles of paths connecting to the campground. These trails offer scenic views of the lake where wildlife sightings are common—campers should keep dogs leashed on trails to avoid encounters with alligators that inhabit the lake. Camp Lake Jasper's proximity to I-95 makes it a convenient stop for travelers with pets, while still providing a peaceful setting away from highway noise. Sites overlooking the lake offer relaxing views during evening dog walks. The campground's location provides a strategic base for exploring both Savannah (30 minutes away) and Hilton Head Island (20 minutes away), both offering numerous pet-friendly activities and restaurants with outdoor seating that accommodates dogs. The automatic security gates ensure pets remain safely contained within the campground boundaries.

      River's End Campground & RV Park

      Week at the beach

      Great camping area with dog parks close by. The campground is a little narrow if you are wide but all in all enough room to get through. All the amenities were clean and well kept. The local cat population is standoffish except ol 3 legs he was kind and loved the petting. The grounds are only a few blocks from the beach and it's beautiful! Had no problems here at all, everyone was so friendly!

      Hilton Head National RV Resort

      Stay Here

      This is by far the best camp ground I have ever stayed at. Clean and spacious sites. The Bath house and private shower area were 5-star hotel quality. Great dog park very clean with separate areas for large and small pets. The pool, lazy river, Tiki Bar and restaurant area was top quality, providing plenty of lounge chairs, tables/w umbrellas, and free pool floats for the lazy river experience. The are plenty cabana setups throughout the pool complex. They were quite expensive and frankly mostly empty for the week I stayed there.(August). Food was outstanding and consistent throughout our stay. My family highly recommends a stay. We will be back.

      Hilton Head National RV Resort

      Best of the best of everything!

      This place has it all & it’s all amazing!! First of all, ALL of the staff are so incredibly kind & hospitable. 2nd, the sites are very large & have every hookup you could want including cable. The park is surrounded by a beautiful walking trail that cuts thru the woods & several areas of the campground. There’s a great, big dog park & an indoor, air conditioned dog spa with several really nice dog wash stationed with temp controlled water, not just cold. The bars are great, yummy drinks & great food. The pool….so nice. There’s a big spray fountain & an awesome lazy river. There’s also a tiki bar at the pool & you can rent cabanas. The clubhouse shop has everything you could ever want & such cute souvenirs. Stuff for the pets too. Most sites are woods views but one area has great water & golf course views. Oh, the golf course, stunning!! I’m sure I’m missing so many things but all I can say is I booked my next visit on the 1st day I was here. 10/10

      Lake Jasper RV Park

      Loved it!!!

      We stayed here for two nights on our way back home from Florida to Virginia. We had a pull thru full hookup gravel site. Our two dogs had a blast at the dog park! It is located next to a city park with walking trails. And only a short 30 min drive to Savannah. Will stay again! Clean, well kept, friendly. Close to freeway.

      River's End Campground & RV Park

      Tight little city campground with amazing location

      This is definitely a "city" campground. Spots are tight, you will be very close to your neighbors, but you'll have everything you need, including a fire ring and picnic table. Wi-Fi and cable were also on point. 

      There is an on-site store which seemed well stocked. However, we tried to order firewood several nights and each night, they were out of firewood. 

      Bugs are bad. Bring bug spray!

      There are two dog parks beside the campground. One for small dogs and another for large dogs. They are nice to have but both could definitely use some work. Even though we have small dogs, we went to the big dog park because the small dog park was in really bad shape. 

      Walking/biking distance to the beach. Also walkable to really great coffee shop called Tybean Art & Coffee Bar. 

      *Warning: While Tybee Island, including the campground, is one of the most dog-friendly places I have ever been, you are not allowed to have dogs on the beaches on the island. This is so strange to me, but they are very serious about it. Don't do it.


    Guide to Hardeeville

    Hardeeville sits in South Carolina's Lowcountry where the terrain remains mostly flat with elevations below 50 feet. Winter temperatures typically range from 40-60°F while summer brings consistent 80-90°F heat with high humidity. The sandy soil in most campgrounds drains relatively well during the frequent afternoon thunderstorms common from June through September.

    What to do

    Wildlife viewing: 3 miles of trails at Skidaway Island State Park Campground connect to wetland observation areas. "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," notes Zach H.

    Fishing: Access to Lake Jasper at CreekFire RV Resort provides bass and panfish opportunities. "This campground has a pool, WiFi, gorgeous lake, a trail around the lake, nice level sites, and they pick up your garbage. It's absolutely picture perfect," says Rachel R., highlighting the lake's popularity among anglers.

    Historical exploration: Civil War reenactments take place annually at Fort McAllister. "This is typical Georgia State Park with large sites and clean, well maintained grounds. We planned this trip to coincide with the annual Civil War reenactment of Sherman's last battle on his way to the sea," explains William N., describing a unique historical experience.

    What campers like

    Clean, private showers: Red Gate Farms - RV Resort offers well-maintained facilities. "We did laundry once. They have two washers and two dryers. Both newish and worked great. We visited in our 33' travel trailer in January. Verizon service is great - we worked from our hotspot the whole trip," shares Ariel F.

    Large, level sites: Campers appreciate the spacious accommodation at Skidaway Island State Park. "Sites are really large, spaced out and private. Lots of hiking trails right at the campground and two large playgrounds for kids. The whole campground is just very peaceful, quiet and serene," Elizabeth E. observes.

    Natural surroundings: The landscape at Hilton Head Harbor provides wildlife viewing opportunities. "While standing on the dock we were able to watch dolphins swim and even saw some sting rays. The staff says that they often have manatees that come into the harbor for a visit," notes Robert N.

    What you should know

    Reservation timing varies: Some parks don't allow same-day bookings. "Looks super nice but they say they are open till 8:30 pm. I got there at 8 and nobody was around. Tried to book it online and they don't do same day reservations," reports Evelyn O. about her experience at Lake Jasper.

    Alternative toilet systems: Heirloom Hamlet uses composting facilities. "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," explains Joe B.

    Park gate hours: Security gates at some parks close early. "Gate locks at 10 pm which really is not enough time if you want a night downtown," warns Elizabeth E. about Skidaway Island, important for campers planning evening activities in Savannah.

    Tips for camping with families

    Playground access: CreekFire RV Resort features kid-friendly recreation areas. "They seemed to be finishing a kid play pool and a lazy river with palm trees next to the existing tennis court," Taylor D. mentions about the family amenities.

    Beach proximity considerations: When seeking pet friendly camping near Hardeeville, South Carolina, beach access requires planning. "From the add it looks close to the beach but it's not," Tommy C. says about River's End Campground & RV Park, suggesting families check actual distances.

    Wildlife safety briefings: Inform children about local wildlife. "Extremely friendly, clean and loaded with amenities which included a covered area which a gas grill and picnic table. Lake side camp sites with relaxing views," RAYMOND notes about Lake Jasper, where alligator awareness is important.

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection strategy: At Hilton Head Harbor, positioning matters. "We rented like 27 which was great as it had a nice open park area beside us for our two dogs," Elicia Renee B. recommends, highlighting the importance of site selection for RVers with pets seeking pet-friendly camping options near Hardeeville.

    Level pads save setup time: Concrete sites reduce leveling hassles. "Sites are angled so it makes backing in a breeze! And the concrete pad was almost perfectly level which made setup so quick!" Edward S. shares about CreekFire RV Resort.

    Water pressure variations: Campgrounds differ in utility quality. "My only complaint is that the water pressure was a little low," Travis F. mentions about River's End Campground, useful information for RVers dependent on consistent water supply.
