Rivers End Campground & RV Park, Tybee Island, Georgia

posted in: Campgrounds 0

Very crowded and very tight sties in this campground made for a challenging visit even in a Class B van. No real space around your site whatsoever. Deep drainage ditches are another obstacle. It’s the only option so location is everything and prices for everything reflect that lack of choice. We wouldn’t go back.

Savannah, on the other hand, was wonderful.. We started with a Hop On Hop Off Trolley tour to get a feel things. Savannah was America’s first planned cities and was laid out around a series of 24 public squares or small green spaces. Thankfully, 22 of those squares still exist today. We had scheduled an archtectural tour for the afternoon which started in Oglethorpe Square, named after Savannah’s founder, General James Oglethorpe.

Next on the agenda was a tour of the Owens-Thomas House and Slave Quarters which tells both sides of the institution of slavery in one city block. We ended our visit with a relaxing walk through Emmet Park and very tasty meal on River Street.
