Great city campground
I will be staying here for 6 weeks over the Dec and Jan period. The spots are close but the facilities are great and the staff is very helpful. I've had a number of packages delivered and they always let you know moments after they get them. The wireless is good but not great. Not solid enough for me to use for work but the Verizon service is excellent so that makes it doable.
Tent Camping
My boyfriend and I stayed here for a week and absolutely loved it! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The bathrooms are private and very clean. We had a great time and will definitely be back!
Small Island Big Heart
We were excited about our spacious site! Yes, you can see, hear, and visit with your neighbors but that’s part of camping right! Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. On our first night we asked for a suggestion regarding a pub where locals hung out so we could gather some island knowledge. We were referred to a place called Huc a Poos.  We walked with our pup, and although it appeared busy, we did not let this deter us. Awesome beer and pizza and we gained a great deal of local knowledge regarding where to paddleboard. The island is small and you can walk or bike just about anywhere. There are not designated bike paths so be aware of dodging people walking, driving, golf carts, and jogging,

Great Staff, Great Campground
Private rest rooms with shower, sink and toilet. Easy walk to two different beaches including North Beach Grill. Walk a little farther for shops and bars. You can drive Golf Carts around the island. Went for four days, stayed for six. Enjoy.

My 1st time
Great stay!
Great campground
Nice campground on Tybee Island. Great location, clean facilities, good sized pool. Most spots are nicely shaded by beautiful live oaks and pines. Around 3/4 mile walk to beach.
Biggest pool on the island!
We stayed last yr and the kids still talk about going back. The pool is huge. The office/store has everything you could possibly need. We ended up getting 2 bags of fire wood and stuff to make smores bc the nice lady at the office forgot to call in for someone to take us to our sitem we only waited about 10 mins so we werent even upset but it was nice of her. Our site was nice and close to the office, pool, laundry, and bath house.
Tybee visit
Really like the easy access to quite area of the beach. Pool on site. Bathrooms cleaned daily. Good mixture of site options and several cabins. Friendly and helpful staff.
Nice amenities, convenient
The camp staff is nice and they take good care of this place.
Island adventures
Tybee island is just outside of Savanna Georgia. Beautiful southern charm. On site pool, general store, bike ride to the beach or around the whole island -very private. Tour the light house and many other local activities. Campsite was soft white pebbles with beautiful historic trees. No see ums were a bit aggravating - this could just have been the time of year. Most people had screened in sitting areas. The bath houses were super clean and individual- nice size pool- great to relax in after a day at the beach. This was another great week of adventure for the books!!

Road Trip! Savannah !
Camp ground was tight for some in our group but over all pretty good. Beautiful pool. Decent bath house. My sight was amazing #136 facing the woods but my neighbors behind me were right up under me! At least they were nice 😃

Nice friendly place
Tent camped here for a long weekend. Staff was very nice. Bathrooms were very clean. Close to beach. Will stay again.
Lovely campground at the beach!
Wonderful campground, nicely landscaped. Great after hour check-in. (We checked in at 6:15AM 12hrs behind schedule) Sites are small but it is a campground at the beach on the east coast. We are in a van. Site 26 was very level and very shaded. Our visit was during Christmas week, so sun lower in sky. Restrooms are clean and individual-shower, sink, and toilet for each person. Shower water pressure and temperature were perfect. However, pressure did decrease during busy morning rush. WiFi was great for our needs, though we were not working and relatively close to office. Staff VERY friendly and very helpful. Fire wood and ice delivery to site. Of note, trash truck pick up was Monday morning and was VERY loud but was at 9 am so not too bad. excellent location. Uber to Savannah was $60 plus tip. Close to wonderful activities for all ages.
Location location location
We have stayed at this campground about 12 times now- you can walk or bike to the beach. The staff is super helpful and friendly. Pool is great addition, bathrooms are always clean.
Good location
Good location and our 41 ft 5th wheel fir in their premier spot. The only issue is our spot was under a tree that must have been infested with small ants. We were only there for one night so we dealt with it. The beach was beautiful. I plan to come back next year and not get a spot under a tree (hoping no bugs but did not check out other sites). Pool was also nice and clean. Local kids are in school now so area was quiet.
Well located and maintained - near beach
My wife and I stayed for three nights in early May. Tybee Island is near Savannah Ga and is the closest Atlantic side beach to Atlanta. River's End is a short walk to North Beach and very well run. We were guided to a shaded drive through spot near one other camper.
The surface was fine gravel. Like most campgrounds near the beach the sites are relatively small. We had no problem with our 22 foot trailer. Experienced drivers of larger RV's will be OK. The staff is helpful and friendly.
We visited the pool - advertised as the largest on Tybee Island but spent most of our time at the beach. There are bike lanes around the island and kayaking is fun on the back river.
Savannah is about 30 minutes away on HWY 80. There is much history and charm. We visited Forsyth Park and the riverfront.
We would definitely stay again.
Clean, crowded and family friendly
Very clean and organized. Campsites are stacked on each other. Our neighbor’s fire ring was literally five feet from our RV. Thank goodness they didn’t have a fire while we were there. Lots of families with you f kids riding bikes and playing. Also lots of campers that were staying many days with stuff scattered all over their area.
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).
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.

Family campground
Campground is awesome, well stocked little store,outside air pump, very clean bath houses, pool was super nice, beach access is a bike ride away, dog parks definitely need work. It was so so hot the whole week. Bike ride to some great restaurants, oh yea kayaking with alligators 😳

Island time
As the realtors say: location location location. That is the selling ticket for this campground. I loved being so close to the beach and walked there at least once a day. Our weather was rainy and windy in mid March but it’s the ocean! We got lucky with a cancellation and switched plans on a whim to stay for a week and I would do it again in a minute. The campground itself is white rock, trees, and roads. Fine for hanging out with friends or family but really—it’s Tybee and the beach you are here for!! Staff were friendly and gasp smiling! We had a pull through site on Fort St and I loved that we could come and go without wending through the campground proper.
Back Again to River's End
To avoid the midwestern early April climate, we are returning to this area that we enjoyed 2 years ago. Today being 3/16/21, the only way we were able to book the 1st week of April was getting lucky from a cancellation. Yes, I agree the lots are not spacious and the whole facility is a bit tight; but we still love the folks there and surrounding area. Bummer about dogs on the beach, though we were ok walking to their little downtown.
Not pulling a car; one night we called for a taxi to dine out at a nice little place. At the time, all taxi fares were $5 (and a nice tip).
Being the only one on the Island, it can be tough to book. But with the entire area (and Savanna), the great staff and well maintained grounds, I give it a 5*
Cheers,
Geo & Dawn

No pups on the beach!
Though the spots are pretty tightly packed together, the close proximity to the beach along with the nice private bathrooms made this a wonderful destination. Just a note for dog owners- DO NOT walk your dog on the beach. You think there's no one around and then the cops just pop out of the sand dunes and chase you down. $300 ticket. We probably won't return because police presence on the island is militant and ridiculous, but all in all the RV park was nice.
Sites close together but clean
Yes, the sites are close together. If you have that expectation and get past that your neighbor will be close, then it is a nice place. We spent most of our time riding bikes on the bike path and on the beach. We also visited Fort Pulaski and walked the trails over there. We spent the evenings at the campsite around the fire. The campground was full but people were respectful and everyone was quiet by lights out. Overall, we had a good time and I would stay here again.
Rivers Edge Campground.
Excellent place to visit. Staff was great. Campground is super clean. Short walk to the savannah river beach. A little longer walk to the ocean beach. 20 min drive to historic Savannah. We have stayed here several times and can't wait to return.
Near but not too near
We really enjoyed our stay at River’s End Campground. Staying in Tybee was pleasant. Being the off-season was helpful. My children and I loved playing and learning outside. We also loved riding our bikes around the island and to the beach.
A staff member tipped us off to the Turtle Pond which was the most memoir experience! We were close to Tybee without feeling like we were in the thick of it.
We would definitely stay there again in the off season like we did this November.
Tight squeeze
The campsite is very clean, and has really friendly employees. Why I gave it three stars: The spots are stacked on top of each other, and it’s all gravel. We had to walk pretty far to get to a grassy spot so my dog could pee. There’s a lot of construction going on around the park and people let their rigs run and it sounds like a semi truck rest area. I wouldn’t stay here again. I’ve never felt more sardined before.
Amazing island getaway
Clean campground, nice shower houses and bonus their gifts hope has a camper part we needed that broke!!! Friendly staff welcomes you and leads you to your campsite. Very pet friendly ♡ will definitely come again!!
