Fort McAllister

We walked the grounds and toured the fort. So much history to learn about. We also stayed at the campground where most sites are spacious, shower house clean and even had a laundry room! Trails were easy but nice, geocache.

GREAT state park! We camped here at their Savage Island campground for two weeks in January ‘26. Clean warm bath house, everywhere is dog friendly, short trails to wander, and a fishing pier. Sites 19-22 have the most sun exposure, great for a Starlink and solar. All else are very shaded. Spacious sites, and easy to navigate.

Well preserved state park. There is a small fee to see the fort itself and battlements as well as museum exhibits both are not very large but you can take your time strolling through and imagining a union iron clad sinking a Confederate blockade runner just off the inlet. The surrounding area has room for camping and more natural area worth seeing.

Beautiful State Park, excellent park staff. A great spot to throw a line in or picnic w the kids.Will be booking a campsite soon.

Fantastic option for those exploring Savannah and local wildlife! Gorgeous park with lots of wildlife and places to walk. The cabins are truly impressive (sorry, I totally didnt take a photo)! No wifi, so plan for that.

Beautiful park. Stayed 2 nights and will be back. Large sites with water and hydro. Some sites with sewer. Varied wildlife wider the park. Saw many deer, armadillo, owls raccoons. Reasonable prices and nice quiet park. Trails, boats ramps. Small gift shop on site. Dump station, comfort stations. Highly recommend this gem!

A good experience with plenty of knowledge to learn about the fort and area surrounding! Hiking trails were a bit flooded from the recent rain but still plenty to explore besides them. The places they let your explore are spooky but awesome to see! Very Well maintained!

The guest services were kind and helpful. The self guided tour was perfect. It was very discriptive and informative. You could go through at your own pace. The entire place was beautiful and tranquil. If you listened closely as the wind blew through the trees and the palm fronds, you might hear the voices of long ago soldiers as the prepared for and fought battles. This is somewhere I would definitely return to in the future.

I stayed at the backcountry/hike-in site 1 on April 22nd. Arrived after the park office had closed but it was pretty easy to figure out where I was going from the reservation packet they had left to the left of the entrance. No information about where to park for hike-in sites. The hike was short but nice. The right-hand trail of the loop (the shortest way to site 1) is closed but it still took less than 20 minutes to get to the site. Site is pretty small with no fire ring and it is right next to the “lookout platform” (kinda disappointing- it’s only about 7 or 8 feet off of the ground) so if anyone wants to go there they will be traipsing through your campsite. But the hike in sites are far away from the main campground so not sure that many people would be interested (no one came through my site in the 12 hours or so I was there). The location is nice, right at the edge of a wetland area with a small waterway right in front of the lookout center, but the bugs are relentless. The no see ums were so bad I could not enjoy my dinner on the lookout platform like I had hoped, and the campground rules state that you are not allowed to have a fire unless it is in a designated ring so I spent 99% of my time there in my tent hiding from the bugs. Maybe it was just the time of year, but I don’t think I would stay here again. Also, they charge you a parking/access fee and I think that’s pretty crap to be charged for that when you are already paying for camping.

Campground was our favorite in the coastal GA area. Beautiful, shaded, and a great amount of vegetation for privacy. We saw deer, armadillo, and raccoons in the campground. The staff was great and the whole park was dog friendly. The fort itself was also very cool and worth the trip!
