We have been there several times as non-campers, but now that we will have our EscapePod we would like to know who has had the pleasure of their campgrounds.

Bob, we just found out the GA Pig is closed down. We have a friend who just drove down here and stopped there to eat. It is for sale....very sad. ------------- Gypsy Edie & Joe A Yorkie named Kona 2013 R-Pod 177 named Gypsy Pod 2005 Toyota 4 runner Cedar Key, FL |

Well that is NOT good news! (Was it Lynn who tried to stop there?) Plus, it will be a hard sell, IMO. Great BBQ, but a building only the old owners could love. I'm not sure it would pass a new health inspection! Still interested in any opinions about camping on Jekyll. Great little golf course just by the ocean. PS- Just noticed the post by TerryM below. I didn't mean to be repetitive!

Jekyll Isalnd is a great place to camp. bring bikes as the biking paths are wonderful. Be sure to go to the Jekyll Island Turtle Center. We were there last year. ------------- Paige and Pete 2010 177 - RPug 2012 Rav (six cylinder) New York & Florida residents

We have heard that the bicycling was a major attraction, and our 'Pod is due to be delivered with a bike rack, so thanks for your recommendation! ------------- Bob and Joyce Jennifer and Baxter, the Campin' Cocker Spaniels RP 177 "Key Pod" Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT / Z71 |
