    Stonewood Farm

    Unique Farm Experience

    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!

    Skidaway Island State Park Campground

    Largest campsites, great separation

    Arrived here for a four-night tent stay. Easy drive in from Tomoka State Park up I-95. Got the last spot at #62 which is very large and has a large tent pad. The electric and water hookups are on the edge of the street, so I had to use both the 75 and 25 foot extension cords to give power to the tent. There's a fire pit and a large picnic table. The restrooms are clean, as well as the laundry room. The dumpster and recycling bin are a bit far from 62, so bring your bicycle, lol. Deer were roaming the grounds in the early morning. Lots of birds singing at sunrise too. Great place. The 45-min drive up to Tybee Island Beach is totally worth it, with beautiful marshes and flatlands along the way. Beach photos included here.

    Stonewood Farm

    Amazing camping experience

    My daughter and I stayed in the glamping tent at Stonewood Farm just before Thanksgiving. 

    What a great place to unwind before the craziness of the holidays. Stonewood Farm is tucked away and offers the perfect blend of nature and farm life.  

    All the animals on this off-the-grid Hobby Farm are rescues and really friendly.  My 12 year old daughter was in Heaven! She had fun with the horses, goats, dogs and especially the one cat who visited our tent and crashed our Monopoly game. 

    The tent itself is spacious and has a tv/dvd, a heater and the most comfy bed ever.  We happened to be there during a new moon and could see a million stars and the Milky Way right over our tent. We could hear owls in the distance calling to each other.

    Kimberly and Ed were amazing hosts. The campsite is away form their cabin allowing for privacy, but if we ever needed anything, they were right there to help. 

    My only concern is this was my daughter’s first time camping in a tent and the bar is now raised high. Haha. This is such a unique experience, we will definitely be back!

    Skidaway Island State Park Campground

    1st Road-trip!

    It was our first camping trip/road trip, we had a roof top tent on top of our suv and skidaway island state park was our first stop! We checked in at the office, which had a beautiful gift shop and many supplies incase you had forgotten any. We were greeted by wonderful staff members and a park ranger. Parking is $5, they were currently out of firewood but thankfully Publix is not far. We made reservations for one night for a tent site which was not a far walk to the restrooms and shower facilities. Our site was very spacious and private and it was a pull through which was wonderful for our rooftop tent. The park is very clean and a absolutely beautiful place to stay, we decided to stay for night #2. The facilities, the sites, the roads were perfect! Also, sites came with running water, electric, fire pit and picnic table.Watch for the big raccoons and don’t leave your trash out at night because those bandits will come!

    River's End Campground & RV Park

    A Favorite for Beach and Outdoors Lovers

    This is our favorite campground. Bring bikes and kayak- you won't be disappointed. We stayed here for 2 months and have been here before and this is one of our favorite places to come. The sites are gravel and level. Most sites are easy to get in and out of and not too close together. I have never felt cramped here. Each site comes with a fire pit and a picnic table. Location is great. Not right on the beach but a short walking distance.(NOTE: DO NOT WALK YOUR DOG ON THE BEACH- they do not give warnings and the fine is close to$300). North Beach is great- Great grill called North Beach Grill. Lots of history close by. Staff are amazing and so friendly. I would say the friendliest staff of all the parks I have ever been to. Lots of great restaurants. We camped at River's End Campground& RV Park in a Motorhome.  I highly recommend North Beach Grille, Cockspur Grille, and Huck-A-Poo - all are walking and biking distance from the campground (Actually everything is biking distance from the campground).

    Skidaway Island State Park Campground

    Great Georgia State Park!

    Easy to reserve online! Water and electric hookups. Arrived after hours, and an info packet was waiting for us. Only stayed the weekend for cheer competition at the Savannah Convention Center, approximately 30 minutes away. Unfortunately the rain was full on while we were there, our site got a bit muddy. Friday evening was nice, and we were able to make s’mores, with the fire ring that was at the site, also a picnic table. And there is Lots of space between sites, great updated playground for the kids. The bathrooms are clean! Cute on site info center….Lots of nature! Many stores and quaint restaurants near the campground. Would recommend and we would reserve here again!

    River's End Campground & RV Park

    River's End - Well Kept KOA

    Mainly a RV park, but about a dozen tent pads (fine gravel, well kept, no trash) in grassy lots with picnic table and fire pit. Family style bathroom/ showers. Office with coffee, games, books. Host on golf cart was helpful with last minute arrival and places to eat on island. 3 block walk to beach. There was also a larger group camping area - saw a scout troop there - these sites had water and power.

    Point South KOA

    Excellent Stop tucked off I95

    Stayed at #52 and it was very private, level, and clean!

    The gravel kept the camper clean; the deck with bench, table and chairs, gas fire pit was super nice; the grill with picnic table were awesome. The plot abuts the grassy area but wasn’t too buggy.

    We went on a walk with our girls around the camp site, to the doggy area (small bjt super cute with some see saws, etc.), around the lake, and read the historical signs. We checked out the giant chess board, playground, horse shoes, and corn hole.

    COVID restrictions were really well explained. Masks suggested, pool sign up with rules posted. We signed up for 6:30 and the team thoroughly cleaned between us and the precious crew.

    The food and store was super and reasonable.

    Next time I will def check out the nightly wine or beer tasting.

    Can’t say enough good things - will def be back!!


Guide to Okatie

Glamping in Okatie, South Carolina connects travelers to coastal terrain within reach of both Georgia and South Carolina attractions. The region features subtropical temperatures with warm, humid summers reaching 90°F and mild winters typically staying above 40°F. Sandy soil conditions throughout the area impact drainage at several campsites, making platform accommodations particularly valuable during the region's frequent summer thunderstorms.

What to do

Hiking trails with wildlife viewing: Skidaway Island State Park offers multiple nature trails directly accessible from the campground. "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. in a Skidaway Island State Park review.

Historical exploration: Fort McAllister State Park includes a Civil War earthwork fort with guided tours. "Visitor Center was really interesting and the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful," shares Lisa P. The park also hosts an annual Civil War reenactment, though as William N. explains, "It was our first reenactment and was interesting, but since we didn't know what to expect, was a bit of a let down... the actual battle only lasted about fifteen minutes."

Beach access: Tybee Island beaches are accessible from several glamping locations. "The campground is shaded by Live Oaks & very neat & well kept... close to the Lighthouse & beach! A few restaurants within bike or scooter distance," writes Emily L. about River's End Campground & RV Park.

What campers like

Spacious, private sites: Many glamping sites in the region offer more privacy than standard campgrounds. "The sites are very large and spread out. Many of the campsites have gorgeous Live Oak trees covered in Spanish Moss," writes Zach H. about Skidaway Island State Park. "The center sites in the campground are pull through with full hookups."

Clean facilities: Fort McAllister State Park maintains well-kept glamping accommodations and bathhouses. "The sites were spacious and easy to maneuver around. Bathroom and showers were very clean and well kept," shares Lisa P. Elizabeth E. notes about Skidaway Island, "SO CLEAN!! The workers here are friendly and work hard to keep everything nice and clean. The laundry here takes cards/tap and app pay which was great."

Wildlife viewing: Glamping locations offer opportunities for wildlife observation. "Deer and other wildlife are seen every day," shares Pamela I. At Camp South RV Park, visitors appreciate "fishing pond, bath house, full hook ups, goats, horses, tranquility," according to Jenny P.

What you should know

Highway noise: Some glamping sites near major roadways experience traffic sounds. At New Green Acres RV Park, "This is just off 95, so it's not quiet. It is green instead of gravel, so that's nice. Lots of trees and all pull thru spaces," explains Mimi. Another camper notes, "Very convenient location off of I-95 but very noisy even inside your camper."

Weather considerations: Summer heat and insects affect camping comfort. "We stayed at Skidaway Island State Park for 4 nights in May... The spaces are very large and spread out," shares Zach H. William N. warns, "One thing we didn't expect, even in Savannah in December, was mosquitoes."

Gate restrictions: Some parks limit late-night access. Elizabeth E. points out about Skidaway Island State Park, "Gate locks at 10 pm which really is not enough time if you want a night downtown."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Multiple glamping locations feature play areas for children. "This place is Great! I went there with my family about a month ago, they have hiking trails, bike trails, a nature center and plenty of room for kids to ride bikes," shares Marysa H. about Skidaway Island State Park. "Lots of great hiking within walking distance of the campsite."

Educational opportunities: Edisto Beach State Park offers nature programs for children. "Amy and I have camped at the Live Oak section of the park multiple times. We love it. Trails for bike rides or walks. Close to beach. Great staff," writes Kevin A. Tori S. adds, "Beautiful Friendly Clean, Quiet, Private. Sites are nestled between the Marsh and Beach."

Pet-friendly options: Many glamping sites welcome family pets. "They are also pet friendly!" notes Marysa H. about Skidaway Island State Park. Camp South RV Park features "a large dog park with poop bags!!" according to Betty D.

Tips from RVers

Pull-through accessibility: Point South KOA offers convenient pull-through sites. "We stopped for one night, very convenient location right off the highway," shares Christa C. Another camper notes, "Checked in at dark and was guided to our site by staff. Mostly level sites with easy access."

Utilities and connectivity: Reliable hookups are available at most glamping locations. At Camp South RV Park, "The people here are wonderful, the facilities are always clean, power is stable and so is the Wi-Fi," reports Illya A. New Green Acres RV Park offers "Full hookups. All pull through. Easy Easy in and out. Quiet even tho close to I95," according to one reviewer.
