Red Gate Farms – RV Resort
Explore Tours
The land that is now Red Gate Farms has a long, rich history in Savannah. If the centuries-old oak trees could speak, they would tell you about the Indians, 18th century colonists, civil war soldiers, and more that crossed the land before Red Gate Farms’ conception as a dairy farm, and later as Savannah’s Premier Event Venue, RV Resort, and Equestrian Center. During the American Civil War, the land that is now Red Gate Farms served as an encampment for Confederate soldiers. Later in the war, the land became occupied by Union soldiers after William T. Sherman’s March to the Sea. Many confederate and union artifacts have been recovered on Red Gate Farms. Years later, the Spanish American War began, and a powder magazine used to house ammunition was built on land adjacent to what would become Red Gate Farms, and the magazine keeper’s house was built on the land. Today, you can still see what is left of the powder magazine off Ogeechee Road, and the keeper’s house still stands on Red Gate Farms.
