The trip from the Savannah area to Jekyll Island was rather short, albeit a rather nice drive with the possible exception of a short detour as we tried (for the second time this trip) to find an advertised RV and Camping Center - looking for covers to protect our tires from the sun.
Jekyll Island (an appropriate place to visit on Halloween) was long held as a private vacation spot of the very rich from the late 1800's until about the period of WWII. The island is now owned by the State of Georgia and is very nicely maintained and many of the old buildings either have been or are in the process of being restored. It is a very quiet place with no 'chain' businesses of any sort, one small grocery store, one gas station, one small strip mall (about a dozen small stores/shops)...you get the picture.
