For seven weekends from the end of September until the second weekend in November, Margaritaville at Lanier Islands will host Fall Family Weekends at LandShark Landing. From kids’ arts and crafts to yard games and Saturday night movies starting at 6 p.m. LandShark Landing will be all decked out for the changing of the season from LandShark Landing to Camp Margaritaville RV Resort Lanier Islands.
“For seven weekends, every Saturday and Sunday starting on September 28-29, guests can enjoy activities at LandShark Landing and Camp Margaritaville RV Resort to take advantage of the cooler weather as fall arrives,” said Bucky Perry, vice president of operations at Margaritaville Lanier Islands. “Our Family Fall Weekends have something for every age.”
Activities range from $10 pontoon boat rides and foam parties to pumpkin decorating and movies on the beach every Saturday. Crafts and games take place from noon until 6 p.m. each weekend of the Fall Festival.
“Seasonal specials at LandShark Bar & Grill highlight the fall with menu items that will rekindle warm thoughts for the whole family,” he said. Specials at LandShark Bar & Grill offers Brunch on Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and a Low-Country Boil on both days.”
To celebrate the spookiest time of the year, on Saturday, October 26, both Margaritaville at Lanier Islands and Lanier Islands’ Game Changer will be stirring it up just in time for Halloween.
“Open to the public, Game Changer will be our Halloween headquarters as we present our spooktacular Monster Mash Party,” said Missy Burgess, director of marketing and public relations for Lanier Islands. “It’s the perfect event for families with a costume contest for all ages with ghoulishly good prizes, plus Halloween trivia and Trunk or Treat for the younger set.”
Monster Mash at Game Changer includes spooky-themed food and beverages. Trunk or Treat will start at 5p.m.; the costume contest will begin at 6 p.m.; and Halloween Trivia takes place at 7 p.m.
“People can really show off their creativity in the costume contest,” she said. “And people’s competitive spirit will come alive in the trivia contest.”
In addition to these special events, Game Changers’ amenities will be open, including virtual sports suites, more than 50 arcade games, virtual reality experiences, axe throwing, escape room and duck pin bowling.
“That same evening at LandShark Bar & Grill, we’ll have a DJ and a costume contest that starts at 7:45 p.m., plus cornhole and yard games for everyone,” Perry said. “Themed food and décor will set the mood for a haunting good time.”
Meanwhile, guests at Camp Margaritaville Lanier Islands will host trick or treaters who are staying in the campground, plus a golf cart parade and a contest to see whose campsite captures the spirit of the season.
Fall Festival Weekends will continue until November 10 at Margaritaville Lanier Islands.
