Savannah, GA campground recommendations

someone mentioned Red Gate, I stayed there last spring and found it a nice place to stay if you want full hookups. I actually chose it because my DD and SIL were attending a wedding there and so the location was perfect for me to babysit and dogsit while they participated in wedding festivities. Nice open field for children/dogs to play, and several roads through farms to walk. Was a play area but I didn't look too closely as granddaughter was only about 8 months old, so too young for playground. It was convenient location and worked for us. Considered Skidaway but it just wasn't as convenient a location for that trip. Previous trip, Skidaway was under construction and there was no water available the week I was going to be there, so I decided to pass and stayed at Fort McCallister State Park instead. It was fine for what I had, although it would have been nice to have had sewer connections. Didn't have children with me, so never tried TV or playground, but there appeared to be a number of families in park.

I hate to see all the arguments in this forum. All this bickering back and forth is childish. I come here to help and to learn not to argue.

We stayed at Hilton Head Island RV Resort this past August and thought it was nicer than the HH Harbor resort. Just my 2 cents worth. Price was about the same. Easy run in to Savannah from HHI and lots more to do on the island..see my blog page for pix..Dennis

First off...fantastic blog! You are truly "living the dream". Thanks forthe recommendation, however it appears that resort only welcome Class A & C coaches. One day!

If you ever find your way back through GA I recommend a trip through Harris County GA. Home to Callaway Gardens, a premier gardens conservancy and host to one ofthe largest and most beautiful Christmas light displays in the Nation, award winning and kicked off this weekend for the season. FDR State Park, GAs largest State Park, Pine Mountain, home to wonderful little antique shops and great dining, Pine Mountain RVC RV Resort, and minutes away from Warm Springs GA and FDRs Little White House.

You can see my personal weekly video blog about the area here: www.youtube.com/user/harriscountychamber1 Of course if you do find yourself in the area stop by the office and say hello!

Hey, we all have our style of rving, it's just great we are all our there doing it and promoting the lifestyle. I am proud when I see everything from a diesel pusher to a pop-up on the road. Folks out creating memories. I am also proud to be a part of the community.

AMEN !

I'm think the OP should go to a state park.

And don't worry about the satellite signal...this is camping, right? It's a lot cheaper to watch TV at my house.

I just have a different approach to some when it comes to the rv. When I think camping, it is loading it up on the back and hiking it in. I did that for years and years, and as soon as my 21 month old is old enough to strap one on, we will be back at it again. The basics and foundations of camping are so important. I miss it and look forward to introducing it to my son.

The rv for my family is really a rolling condo, or vacation home on wheels. It affords my young family the opportunity to travel around our region (3-4 state area) and spend great time together. We try to "vacation" once a month. Tough with a young one and us both working full time, but we manage to make it work. But it is hard for me to call it "camping"" with heat, ac, microwave, fridge, and two flat screen tvs. Haha!

We like the resorts for the hookups mainly, you use a lot of water giving a 21 month old a bath every night! And the amenities, larger level pads for him to ride his little tricycle, etc.

Skidaway, nicest park we've stayed in.

I second that...again and again.......

Lot of great feedback on Skidaway, we will definently have to take that into consideration! Thanks for the note and the reinforcement on that park. Exactly what I came for, first hand experience from folks here. There are several State Parks we really enjoy, FDR in Georgia and Topsail in Florida to name a few.
