Skidaway or James Island?

We have a 33 foot class A motorhome. Looking for a spot for a week in midMarch. We do not tow a car. We like to bike and kayak and a little site-seeing (we could rent a car for a few days). Have narrowed it down to Skidaway Island or James Island County Park. Can anyone who has been to both make a recommendation?

    RVFamilyTravelAtlas, love your podcast about James Island County Park! How do I get to the Charleston podcast?

    Been to both and love 'em both. But from what you say you want to do I'd go with James Island.

    Agree with fla-gypsy, both are nice but if I had 1 week and had to pick between the 2, it'd be James Island.

    We have done both and prefer James Island and Charleston.

    We have never been to Skidaway, but we sure enjoyed sight-seeing in Charleston while camping at James Island. We followed a walking tour of Charleston which was in our AAA Tour Book.

    You will not be disapointed if you choose James Island. They have miles of walking/bike paths, and also have a shuttle that would take you into Charleston, and return. One of the best parks we have ever visited. Enjoy your stay!
