7 nights at Panhandle Paradise

David's set up is so nice we visited twice! This was our second visit to Panhandle Paradise and we loved it just as much as we did the first time. The outdoor shower is so nice and convenient. The covered picnic area is great for cooking and eating outside. The only advice I have is to bring bug spray! We got eaten alive by mosquitoes on the first night (after a rain shower). After that night, they weren't bad at all, but the damage was done. We lived with anti-itch cream for the rest of our trip. It was still wonderful, though!

5 nights at Panhandle Paradise

We were honored to be the first campers at Panhandle Paradise! My husband, six year old daughter, and I spent five nights here. It was absolutely perfect. The site is easy to navigate and quiet. The cover helped keep our camper cool and the outdoor shower was a life saver. We really liked the location. It's only three blocks (approximately) from Port St. Joe Beach. The area itself is a wonderful: a laid back bench community. There are ample places to park and beach access points. We will definitely come back!
