This is a truly legendary lazy river at Jamaica Beach RV Resort if you were looking for inspiration for your campground's next water feature. 😎

We are looking forward to seeing everyone for Memorial Day weekend.

We are currently booked for this weekend.

A few quick reminders about this upcoming weekend:

-no outside guests will be allowed, all guest must be checked at the site during the checkin process. (This is to keep our occupancy low so our pools can be at less then the required 25% occupancy as mandated by Governor Abbots Executive Orders GA-23-

-for our “floaters” if you can bring tubes for the river that would be awesome, we do have some for sale in the office, we are still awaiting our tube supply that is held up in customs, plus your own tube limits the contact of others.
