Red Gate Campground & RV Resort

It’s VERY CLEAN with a VERY southern homey feeling and charm… They had a small fitness center, a HUGE flat screen and some couches in an area that could have EASILY felt like grandma’s living room (I’m from up north and my grandma really was from the south), a laundry room with one coin washer and dryer and one regular washer and dryer the one with no coins to operate relies on an HONOR system put the money in provided envelopes and slide under the door… This was cool being that I had run out of coins, two full bathrooms (just like home) and VERY clean, they had a salt water pool, and horses, cats, peacocks, a huge lake filled with ducks and fish… I heard they have snakes and alligators in that water but I didn’t witness that nor did I stay around to, the only weird thing to me was the parking of the motorhomes or RV… It just seemed like some of them just picked a spot near a barn or on the side of the pavilion… I didn’t see full hookups there or a mapped out space but ooh well… There were designated spaces in the middle with full hookups and gravel pads a fire pit at each site with a picnic table.

Ok so Gary K clearly didn’t bother even looking for amenities — as is detailed in the other review here the amenities are pretty extensive: in addition to the pool, volleyball court, random other outdoor games, a covered patio & chairs on the water’s edge and another mosquito-​net-​walled pavilion on the water, and probably many others I didn’t have time to discover, this place has a fitness room, living room with TV and showers in the main office (and a kitchen which I’m not sure but I think is for guest use), and a big clubhouse with 2 giant TVs, cable, blu-​Ray player, comfy couches, 2 dining tables, a piano, pool table, board games, microwave, free tea & coffee, and more. Yes, most of the facilities are on the older side, but they’re clean and well-​maintained. The park grounds are gorgeous, and the staff are nice. We called them at one point in our stay (10pm on Saturday night) to let them know a thunderstorm had damaged the clubhouse roof, they answered the phone immediately and drove over within minutes. To the person who complained about being without water for 1hr 20min… I understand that’s frustrating, but really? You’re camping! And there are water faucets on the grounds. Yes, $ 30/​night to dry camp in their grass field seemed expensive to us at first, but between the amenities, the grounds and the proximity to downtown (8−10min drive), it’s well worth it. My main complaint was the location being right next to a railway line, but it didn’t really disturb us. u

Closest rv park to the city. We have stayed here 4 times. Our daughter is going to SCAD so we stayed here when we visited the school and now we stay when we drop her off and pick her up from the school. Each time we visit they seem to have made changes. Nice and clean and friendly staff. They even can arrange sight seeing tours to pick you up at the camp ground.

stayed for 3 nights in may. a gorgeous location, walks, animals, lakes, game room, pool… many thing to do or just do nothing and take in the views. staff were great. close to historic savannah. booked again for Dec.

Nice campground close to Downtown. The property is very beautiful, with horse paddocks, ponds and a large Plantation house to host events. The campground is the red headed step child of the place, placed out at the front by the highway. The sites are just set in an open field with no landscaping. They could have made it much nicer with some planning. While we were somewhat let down, it appears to be the best place this close to Savannah for camping.

NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON HERE BUT THIS PROPERTY IS NOT ONE I would suggest it is basically a hay field with no amenities. This property has so much potential yet it will take some time or new owners to get it right. Look before you leap.

first of all, the property itself is absolutely gorgeous… and while it was aesthetically pleasing, that’s about all it was. The cost of a nightly stay is very high for what you get in the main RV spaces. There are three spots in the campground that are worth having, but they do not include sewer and one does not include water either. These sites as C1, C2, and C3. They face one of their three gorgeous lakes and are shaded by two huge trees. If you’re going to stay in this campground, I recommend using your black and gray tanks and insisting on one of these three spaces. The location is very convenient to Savannah and it takes only about 8 minutes to get to downtown.
The utilities that are provided are okay. The electricity was consistent even when all the other campers were using their A/​Cs. The water tasted okay and the pressure was very good. However, during our stay, the water turned itself off and it was very challenging to get in touch with the staff. Several voicemails had to be left and after about an hour of trying to contact them, they finally got back to us and our fellow campers next door with a short call saying their were «working on it.» About 20 minutes later the water was back on so to be fair – they are helpful, just slow and hard to get in touch with.
Wifi is basically non-​existent here. You can occasionally see it from the spots near the lake, but getting a signal from any of the main spaces doesn’t seem possible. The clubhouse itself is very nice. It featured a big screen TV, a pool table, lots of local brochures of Savannah attractions. There is a pool, on-​site laundry facilities, and a fitness room as well… but it seemed like it was more a part of the staff housing so I felt very uncomfortable using any of these things.
Pets are allowed on the premises with no additional charge. There is no fenced park, so all exercise has to be done on-​leash. One of the owners of the property allows their Australian Shepard to roam around without a collar which could be a problem for people who either don’t like larger dogs or who have dogs that are not friendly with other dogs. The Shepard seemed very nice and will play fetch with you but, since it was hard to get a hold of anyone at the office, if there was a conflict the odds of someone being around to aid you are slim.
Again, it’s a bit on the higher-​end of pricing so I wouldn’t stay here again for more than a few nights – but I would consider returning! All in all, I would recommend this as a pleasant place to stay for people who are dog-​friendly, self-​sufficient, and looking for a place to park while they check out Savannah.
