Michael -- I mentioned living here in Central Florida for almost 15 years... I moved here from Brunswick, GA. Born and raised! :) While we're at it, know of any good local spots there where I can home-base when visiting the fam? I've always been aware of the Jekyll Island campground, but never stayed there. We come back up 4 or 5 times a year, usually around holidays.
Ha, small world isn't it! We've lived in Brunswick for 10 years now.
We love Jekyll Island, but aren't big fans of the campground. I can recommend two campgrounds. If you like a State Park like campground, check out Blythe Island Regional Park and Campground. If you prefer a resort, check out Coastal GA RV Resort. Both are very nice. Both are a few miles from Exit 29 (same exit as Jekyll Island). Blythe Island is about $10 cheaper. There is more there for the kids to do. It is also a lot quieter.
