Skidaway Island State Park || RV Park Review || Full Time RV Living
We stayed at Skidaway Island State Park in Savannah, GA for one week in May 2018. Once we heard how much Georgia prides themselves on their state parks, we knew we had to stay in one! We do have to admit this was a great campground. The sites were spacious, some offered full hookups, and the location can't be beat.

Places to see in ( Savannah - USA )
Savannah, a coastal Georgia city, is separated from South Carolina by the Savannah River. It’s known for manicured parks, horse-drawn carriages and antebellum architecture. Its historic district is filled with cobblestoned squares and parks such as Forsyth Park shaded by oak trees covered with Spanish moss. At the center of this picturesque district is the landmark, Gothic-Revival Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist.
Each year Savannah attracts millions of visitors to its cobblestone streets, parks, and notable historic buildings: the birthplace of Juliette Gordon Low (founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA), the Georgia Historical Society (the oldest continually operating historical society in the South), the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences (one of the South's first public museums), the First African Baptist Church (one of the oldest African-American Baptist congregations in the United States), Temple Mickve Israel (the third oldest synagogue in America), and the Central of Georgia Railway roundhouse complex (the oldest standing antebellum rail facility in America).
Savannah's downtown area, which includes the Savannah Historic District, the Savannah Victorian Historic District, and 22 parklike squares, is one of the largest National Historic Landmark Districts in the United States (designated by the U.S. government in 1966). Downtown Savannah largely retains the original town plan prescribed by founder James Oglethorpe (a design now known as the Oglethorpe Plan). Savannah was the host city for the sailing competitions during the 1996 Summer Olympics held in Atlanta.
Savannah is known as the 'Hostess City of the South' – and a good hostess will stuff you to the gills with all things battered and fried before sending you on your merry way. This is a city where people come to indulge in decadent, traditional Southern and soul food, but top chefs are also reimagining things with a 'New South' cuisine, where classic themes and ingredients meet innovative preparations. With Savannah's proximity to the ocean, seafood features heavily on most menus, and good grub doesn't stop at Southern staples – fans of diverse international fare can find great options, too.
Dubbed the Creative Coast (with a local entrepreneurial organization of the same name), Savannah boasts a vibrant arts and design scene that's fueled not only by the Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD), one of the finest art schools in the country with students and faculty from far and wide; but also bolstered by the natives and transplants whose initiatives make the arts more inclusive and accessible. From superb museums and galleries in the Historic District to the Starland section between Midtown and the Victorian District catering to locally crafted pursuits, creativity is the lifeblood coursing through Savannah's artsy heart.

Sandpiper Trail Complete Walk-Skidaway Island State Park
Sandpiper Trail Loop
This one-mile loop is our most popular trail, taking you over salt flats and tidal creeks, and through maritime forests on island hammocks. Plan on an hour of walking time. The boardwalks and level trail are ADA accessible. Bicycles are not allowed, but leashed pets are welcome if cleaned up after. Follow along the alphabetized posts and signs to learn about the unique resources on the trail.
A. Salt Flats – High tides flood this area with a thin layer of water that evaporates quickly, leaving behind salt crystals, giving a white sandy appearance.
B. Fiddler Crabs – They make their homes in the salt flats and marshlands and get their food by filtering organic material from the sand.
C. Island Hammock – This slightly elevated land provides a home for plants and animals that cannot live in the salty, wet marsh.
D. Pine Beetles – These flying insects infested and killed the pine trees in this area many years ago, leaving behind dead tree habitats for various birds and insects.
E. Tidal Creek – Twice daily, the “ocean’s nursery” is flooded by tides that bring food for minnows, shrimp, crabs, and oysters. When the Spartina or cord grass growing here decays it forms detritus, a primary food source.
F. Confederate Earthworks – During the War Between the States, off duty gun crews rested within the V shaped earthen work around you.
G. Intracoastal Waterway – The bridge you see in the distance crosses the intracoastal waterway that extends from Florida to Massachusetts. Islands like Skidaway serve as a protective barrier between the main land and ocean.
H. Liquor Still Site – During the 1930’s this hole contained one of the 31 liquor still sites on park property.
I. Black Needle Rush – Named after its sharp black tip, this plant grows on the higher ground in the salt flats.

Walking Around Forsyth Park Savannah Ga 31401
Forsyth Park is over 30 acres in the heart of the Savannah Historic District and was named after Georgia Governor at the time of the expansion in 1851, John Forsyth.
The park is bordered by Park, Drayton, Whitaker, and Gaston streets, is home to the Confederate Memorial, a half shell theatre, tennis courts, basketball courts, a cafe, two playgrounds, and ample room for sports and events. However, people from all over come to see it’s a most famous asset: the Forsyth Fountain.
Modeled after the fountains found in Place de la Concorde in Cuzco, Peru, it was added to the North end of the park in 1858. Forsyth Park is home to the Farmer’s Market every Saturday, a site for concerts during the Savannah Jazz Festival, a host to free movies in the park every few months and the destination for all kinds of festivals and special events throughout the year.
But you don’t have to wait for an event to try it out. Bring a good book and a blanket, and spend a sunny afternoon under the shade of an oak tree.
