Rating: 6 6 8 5 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We arrived late but management left a note with our site clearly marked. Sites are crowded and not screened by vegetation at all. The camper next to us was 7 feet away. No problems with utilities and WiFi signal was adequate for low quality video clips. No picnic table or firepit at our site but some had those. Tiki bar part of the campground with pizza and outdoor live music 100 feet from our site but they shut down at 9:45 and were not uncomfortably loud. Site very level and easy to access. Roads were fine. 1/2 mile from beach. - rudyhehn
This is an older campground and could use a little more care. However, the sites were level and fairly clean. The sites are quite close. there was entertainment one evening we were there which was fun. There is no cable (as advertised) and the wifi is so/so depending on the time of day. The owners are on site. - Al and Anne-Marie
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Rustic Sands RV Resort Campground »We stayed here for most of the month of February, in part due to the location, in part due to the spaciousness of the sites and partially due to the price being right. We have enjoyed our time here. But it's obvious that the CG is up for sale and the maintenance isn't being kept up. There were plenty of complaints about two things; the laundry service being poor and the WiFi being poor. Hopefully someone will come in and manage it better. - Scott Cl

Rating: 1 5 10 3 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Beware! Before you book your RV site insist on getting to policies emailed to you BEFORE you give them a credit card. They will not refund your money or allow you to camp there as make up days under ANY circumstances including a HURRICANE WATCH. If you have a driving RV without a car and leave your site without notifying them they can and will re rent your site (and keep your money). We asked to use our 2 extra days we prepaid for on our return from hurricane evacuation and they flat out said NO! Their other policies include no cleaning of fish at your site and no disposal of fish guts in their dumpster. If you do not clean the bath house they will close it. They point out that as an RV park they are not required to offer one. Management is great on the phone but VERY RUDE once you get there. There are permanent campers that store a lot of "stuff" outside which junks up the campground. No one from management directed the residents to put things away when the hurricane was coming. Biting flies were a bother. Should you choose to stay you will find rather narrow spots with gravel. A small picnic table which is adequate for 4 people. It is right across the street from the beach and you do have access to a hotel pool on the beach as well. You can also rent wave runners at the beach which is a plus. I did not use the bath house so I can't comment. - Brenda Lloyd
The management of this park is awful. We had originally booked for a month but when we arrived, we immediately decided that we didn't want to stay the entire month. She was very hostile and down right mean. She will lie to you to get you in there and then charge you the entire stay even if you decide to leave early. I understand charging for the time you booked but there is no cancellation fee or anything. I was SUPPOSED to get a welcome card in the mail that I never received telling me about the cancellation policy. The park was clean and is in a great location but the management made our stay forced. I would go back under different management. - jk13zplace

Rating: 9 9 8 8 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We paid a premium for a waterfront campsite. It was worth it, but double the price of a regular site. We paid a daily rate. The campground has added a exercise/community facility and a pool since last year. They are also adding sites across 30A. This was a quiet campground a few minutes form Port St. Joe. There are a few restaurants in PSJ. There are places to walk a dog, but the CG itself does not have an area where dogs can run. There is an area across the street for that but this may not be an option after the improvements are done. No playground area for kids and no real games for kids in the community room. Excellent kayaking and fishing from the campground as long as you have a boat. Presnell's also rents boats, but we did not use that service. Great friendly staff. - pbrodie
This camp has recently had a major facelift and it shows. The place is spotless. It's on the bay front and it faces west for very nice sunsets. The WiFi works well, enough to stream tv. The pool is heated and spotless. Centrally located to Apalachicola, Mexico Beach, Port Saint Joe, Indian Pass, Cape San Blas. Given that it is ramping up to a new level of amenities there is room for improvement. More organized social activities would really seal the deal. The people in the office were pleasant and helpful. My only real complaint is that there is not a dedicated bike path along the road in front, just a wide paved shoulder. I rarely rate a camp this highly. - KED1950
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Presnell's Bayside Marina & RV Resort »I think the term "resort" is a misnomer for this park. To me that means paved roads and sites with nice landscaping. This park didn't have those. Sites not too close together. Limited cable, other utilities including wifi good. Nice views. Lots of puddles after rain. Some very junky RV's in park. Their new pool looks nice, but too cold while we were. Laundry is up very steep stairs and only has 2 machines at $4.00 each. They did have dog walk spots with bags and receptacles for waste. - padre

Rating: 9 10 7 9 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: If you want miles of white sand beaches to walk on without seeing hardly a soul and wild rolling Gulf coast surf, this is the place for you. It is a long narrow peninsula with miles and miles of beach. Another nice feature is there are elevated boardwalks to the beach and between the campsites behind dunes. The campsites are packed white sand. This park is a well loved and oft visited one so reservations are in order. We got lucky and got the last possible site available for two nights without a reservation. The roads are narrow and the campsites are a bit tricky to get in and out of. Some are nicely spaced and private but ours was right on top of our neighbours and our slide out was almost touching the next site's tents. We had rolling surf to serenade us at night along with three owls hooting to each other which was so pleasant. We saw snowy egrets, great blue herons and many other birds. And of course we took long long walks on the beach. - Judy Birchland
Right by the gulf... beautiful sunsets. Sights are sand .. easy access. Love this place - Wisco
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for St Joseph Peninsula State Park »Stayed here for 3 nites in Jan 2017. It was unseasonably cold and very windy. Check in was very efficient. Sites are well marked and we found #30, the one we had reserved. It was very narrow with two pine trees on either side. It was quite a chore getting in. My truck and trailer total 35 ft in length. The nose of my truck stuck out into the roadway by about a foot so I had to unhitch. We saw several other sites that are very shallow. Of course they have no wifi or cable but we knew that up front. Restrooms were the best I have ever seen in an RV park. Very clean, good hot water pressure. - 70 Nole

Rating: 9 8 6 6 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: St. Joseph Peninsula SP has two campgrounds, the older Gulf Breeze and the newer Shady Pines. On this trip, we stayed in both. Shady Pines is definitely our favorite of the two, although Gulf Breeze is closer to the beach. Shady Pines has more vegetation (although they had just done a prescribed burn the month before we were there and the effects were still very visible.) The comfort stations are both nice, clean and well maintained. Gulf Breeze shows its age, as the sites are very close together and there's not much vegetation between sites, especially the interior sites. One of the comfort stations is old and pretty shabby, but clean. The other is very nice, and looks new. We had a good 4G LTE signal from AT&T in both campgrounds. The park itself is about a half hour from Port St. Joe and there are only a couple of convenience stores closer to the park, so stock up on necessities before entering the park. - Indybear
I found the previous reviews to be accurate. The Shady Pines section has the best sites overall, but the Gulf Breeze sections has some good ones too, especially if it's cool or cold. (It got below freezing on our last visit.) The worst thing about this campground is the lack of completeness. The potential is limitless. The beach is amazing and easily accessed. People who like beaches will love the isolated and pristine feel of the park's beaches, but the campground itself falls just a tad short of perfect. It's an unpolished diamond. Eliminate the old bathhouse and some cramped and/or low privacy campsites and this place would be my new standard of campground perfection. (So close, yet so far.) Given the price, one shouldn't complain, but if they did the things I suggest, I would pay double or more to camp there. (Unfortunately, so would millions of other RV'ers, so I probably would never get back in. Like the state park campgrounds in the Key's that I can never reserve. ) - jerry6
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for T.H. Stone Memorial St Joseph Peninsula State Park »We stayed in the Gulf Breeze loop for 9 nights. The good news is the campground is directly on the gulf, so getting to the beach is a short walk away. The one bath house is very nice, the other is in desperate need of remodel. There are no sewer hook ups, the sites are cramped and electric is 30 amp. We had electrical issues; even with limited usage we kept tripping the breaker. Our fridge wouldn't cool, although we had no problems prior to being there or after we left. The park sent somebody to look at our pedestal; he found it to be hot, and had to get parts b/c parts broke into pieces when he unscrewed it. We had our 2 yr old grandson with us, who has had 2 surgeries and can't get water in his ears, making showers difficult. Instead we bought a small baby swimming pool to give him a bath each day. On day 6, after doing so for almost a week, a ranger came to our site and told us her boss saw the little blow up pool sitting on our site and said we could no longer do this. We were given no explanation as to why, and there's nothing in the sheet of park rules that mentions anything to prohibit it. At the same time our "neighbor" hung 2 hammocks from the trees, which goes against park rules and nothing was said. Lastly, we (and several other campers) had very limited cell service. The park is quiet at night, and the beach is lovely, although we decided to head home a day early (our reservations were for 10 days). - roaddogs

Rating: 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Cape San Blas Camping Resort »This campsite has definite pros. Easy beach access, gorgeous beaches and great clean bath houses. Cons: the noseeums, mosquitoes and biting flies were horrific. We thought by waiting to camp here in November would ease that problem. It did not. Camp sites are not set up efficiently. We had to manually swing our camper around in order to not have power cords running across our entire site. We made the mistake of arriving after dark to find that we had the least desirable camp site. We chose another site to set up and the park ranger made us move to another camp site the following day. We knew this might have been a possibility but we were surprised when they actually made us move. At our originally assigned site, our water hookup was forty feet away and we couldn't find it. The only possible way we would camp here again is after a hard freeze, possibly February. - NLJernigan

Rating: 6 9 6 10 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Campground is dated, no clear delineation between sites. Sights are not well kept up. Example: Cable TV had been "updated" with new wiring and connections, but old wiring and boxes were still present, in various states of disrepair. No sewer. Site had numerous small items of trash, bottle caps, paper, etc present. We called and told them that we would be a little early, they said, fine, the site is open. Then were told when we arrive that there was an "early check in fee" of $10.00. They didn't even pick up the trash in the site. - One the Rhode
We love this place! So what is Indianpass Campground? Well let's talk about what it is not. If your looking for a open parking lot style RV Park with full hook ups, high speed Wi-Fi, that will fit a 50' Motorhime, then this place is not for you. What is Indianpass Campground? It's a old School Fl. Camp ground, or like I call a fishing camp. It's laid back and cozy, friendly staff, and well kept. Though this camp has been here at least 50+ years. They have waterfront sites, but all of the sites are a quick walk to the beach. Almost all of the sites have some kind of tree cover. The sites have power, water, and most have cable TV. The bathrooms have recently been updated, and are clean and well kept. The grounds are well kept and tree debris is kept cleaned up. Tank pump out service is provided at $15 per pump out. Sure beats dragging a blue boy around. The campground is across from St. Vincent National Island. It's a quick kayak trip across the channel to a little seen Gem of the Fl Coast. There is a ferry service that can also provide access to the island. The Camp is kid and dog friendly, and you can have dogs in the Cabins. Overall? We love this laid back Old Florida style Campground. - Silverflames
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Indian Pass Campground »This is a CG at the end of the road with a boat launch. Therefore it's quiet, pretty dark, right on the Gulf, and has some ok beaches. CG Basics: roads gravel and a bit tight to get around on if you go down the wrong ones. Sites gravel and depending on where you are pretty roomy and mostly level. Bathrooms and showers were spotless. Shower had good pressure and plenty of hot water. They are wired for cable but it doesn't work. They have no wifi but Verizon and Mifi work well unless a tower goes down, happened when we were there probably due to a prescribed burn on the mainland service was out in the whole area. It was back up the next morning. OTA tv gets 6 channels. All the sites have power and water but not all the sites have 50 amp. Our site had 50,30,20 amp with water. The water doesn't taste that great so you might want to come with full fresh water. No sewer hook up but the have a dump station and pump out service available. W/D are also on site. This was our second time here and we will come back if we're in the area again. - pumper9x9

Rating: 9 9 8 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Nice little campground. Needs some upgrades in bathrooms. At the very least a few box fans. It makes no sense to take a shower if as soon as you turn the water off you are pouring sweat again. It is so stuffy and no air moving in there it is almost miserable. The site host is very helpful and even woke up at 3:30am when we arrived to assist us in backing in in the dark. He is older though and probably needs help maintaining the grounds. There is a lot of grass to be cut. The camp sites are grass and needing cutting. Grass was ankle to calf deep which made for a lot of flies and biting insects. - CrazyCatfish
Lovely county-run campground. First-come, first-served; pick a site and camp host will collect your fee. Pretty good shade with most sites on small hill overlooking pond connected to the Dead Lakes (boat ramp to lake nearby). Sites around edges are back-in; sites in the middle of the hill are pull-through. Most sites 30 amp, but a few back-in 50 amp sites are available. They tend to go first. Dump station on way out. Two washers and two dryers in comfort station building (cold-water only). Good OTA TV reception and decent Verizon signal. - aowcarol
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Dead Lakes Recreation Area »A nice little county park with about 20 some sites. There are back in sites along the perimeter and pull thru sites in the interior. They are mostly all grass sites and some will need leveling. There is a permanent camp host on site. No reservations are taken, but there is usually plenty to pick from. Just pull into the site you want and the host will come around to get your money. There is a laundry available. The bathrooms, while clean, could use some upgrading. There are several dedicated tent sites also. There are two large ponds with long docks for fishing and also a boat launch. Also a nice playground for the kids. Firewood is available for purchase. There's a small nature trail, but if you're just looking for a relaxing place to do nothing, then this is a good one! - Southern Yankee
