Located minutes off I95 in South Carolina, just 30 minutes from Downtown Savannah, 40 minutes to Bluffton and an hour to South Carolina and Georgia Beaches, Whippoorwill Farms SC is not only a convenient stop while traveling, it’s a great place to stay to just get away from it all. We boast a variety of staying options anywhere from tent camping to premium RV hookups as well as Farm Experience Stays in a Retro Style RV that we rent out nightly. A staycation at the farm or a long weekend away is a perfect way to spend time on the farm and learn about what we do. If you love the environment, animals and agriculture, you don’t want to pass us by.
We had a beautiful time. I was able to book last minute after our plans fell through. We stayed for one night. Marissa was very accommodating. This is a working farm and not your typical campground which we loved. The site was clean and quite. We were able to walk the farm a bit on a very well kept dirt road. We were offered fresh eggs and produce!
Unique and amazing. This is a working farm with the most interesting plan. Marissa and James are reclaiming land overgrown with invasive trees and plants, making sustainable and natural land. Goats, pigs and chickens are doing the work of clearing undergrowth and exposing the earth, based on a thorough understanding of rotating the animals through the space taking into full account the needs of the soil and plants. It's a phenomenal place, well done! Can't wait to come back to see their progress!
This was a quick drive from Beaufort - and I encourage tourists and locals alike to check it out. There is RV parking with power. I chose to primitive tent camp. Attentive, welcoming hosts. I attended a gardening class and farm tour while here. I also volunteered to lay hay for the pigs. (You can also volunteer in the garden or greenhouse.) I enjoyed walking “the loop”
and watching wild turkey and birds. There are seasonal vegetables and meats available. I really enjoyed hearing the sustainability story of how Marissa and James are revitalizing the soil. I’ll be back!!
We loved our stay on the farm!
As far as our rv accommodations: the spots were gravel and level. Had a fire pit, bench, water and electric. Perfect.
The animals were so fun to watch. So many chickens and pigs! Very special place they have and have let campers get a glimpse at.
They also have a farmers market list you can order from. They brought it to our rv in the morning. We got fresh arugula, tomato’s, sweet potatoes, pork chops and bacon!
Awesome small campground on our way to Florida! To see a young couple running this farm is impressive. Very well maintained and they will answer any questions you have. This is a must stop if you can. Perfect for a one nighter.
