The Christmas season is taken
pretty seriously in
the southeastern US, and the Richardson Tribe has a dozen suggested destinations
to make your holidays more adventurous. Over the next 12 days, we will reveal
each of our favorite RV camping and recreation spots until we reach our #1
Christmas Holiday Destination. Come back each day to see the places this
southern family has grown to love. #7 - James Island Park - Charleston, South Carolina
James Island Park consists of _small.JPG)
thick forests, lush green lowlands, and thriving tidal marshes
crisscrossed with smooth winding bike paths, one of which leads to a creek and
fishing dock. This area is a natural host to alligators, crabs, birds, kayaks, outdoorsy types, and fishing.

Every year during the Christmas season, James Island hosts a festival
of lights. This event features a three-mile driving tour displaying hundreds of
decorations and millions of lights. Santa's in attendance for photos and special
Christmas requests. There is a carousel, a rock climbing wall, concerts, arts
and crafts, train rides, carnival rides, food, hot cocoa, and so much more, all
climaxing with a fireworks extravaganza on New Years Eve!
The campground at James Island has slightly rustic full hookup sites surrounded by tropical vegetation. Everything in the park is within walking or biking distance from the

campsites. In warmer weather, the water park, a five minute walk, is
a very popular in-park destination.
Of course, being this near Charleston means there are literally
hundreds of great places to go and things to do. Fresh seafood abounds year
round here, so finding a delicious meal is a pretty simple task. We also enjoy
riding downtown to the market to browse the hand-made goods and admire the old
buildings. Imagine all that gingerbread architecture decorated for Christmas.
It's absolutely beautiful!
