Private, gated waterfront estate on the shores of Choctawhatchee Bay. Close to the activities on 30A and the Gulf of Mexico (7 minutes) but secluded enough to feel like you have your own private piece of paradise with amazing sunset views. The bay is full of life: watch mullet jump, catch crabs, watch for dolphins and sting rays. If you enjoy fishing, try night fishing on the dock, too. Bay charters come to the waters around our dock on their excursions! If you bring a boat, Cessna Landing is just under 2 miles away with a very nice boat launch. Tie your boat to our dock for the duration of your visit. Boating, paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing, swimming, sunset watching, bicycling and campfires are a few things to enjoy while at the 30A Bay Hideaway. Sunset viewing deck, bay beach/dock, fire pit and an outdoor shower and sink with hot water and an outdoor mini-fridge are included in the listing. Owners are not onsite during rental periods and the property is limited to one RV site so you can be sure you will have the property all to yourself!

We were just passing through for one night but this place was perfect for any length of stay. Quiet, with a nice sitting area, and a short walk to a great beach. The space was level, with easy access and hook-ups. Our dogs loved it as much as we did. We promised to stay longer next time. We highly recommend this spot!

This was our first time using Hipcamp, and we couldn’t have picked a better spot. It’s well taken care of, quiet, and extremely private considering it’s right in the middle of multiple houses. Make sure if you have a 50 amp rig, carry your 30 to 50 amp adapter, we never leave without ours.

Weekend Trip to 30A Bay Hideaway

The property was very well maintained, and the waterfront views were absolutely beautiful. The campsite was quiet, peaceful, and a great place to relax. The extra-long dock made it super convenient to keep our boat in the water, and there were plenty of neat spots around the bay to explore. The bugs were pretty heavy at night, so definitely bring bug spray. We’ll definitely be coming back for another stay soon!

The bike path is along the entire peninsula. You can jump on it directly across from the site.

We absolutely loved our stay at Jen’s site ! The location was hard to beat — just a short walk to the beach on the ocean side of 30E, right at the end of the road. There was easy access to an awesome bike 🚲 path, the hookups were perfect, communication with Jen was excellent, and everything was easy and convenient for our RV setup. Great location without feeling crowded. There’s a small general store nearby for essentials, a fish market close by, two beautiful state parks just a short bike ride away, and other close spots for eats and treats 🤗. We also enjoyed spending time in Port St. Joe — such a great little town to grab food and walk around. We loved this spot and will absolutely stay again!

Another great trip at the beach. We stay here every time we go to Panama City Beach now. Close enough to walk to beach, to gas station, and places to eat, it rained when we were there but it didn't bother us a bit. Already planning our next trip for late summer very soon. Five stars and two thumbs up.

7 nights at Wild and Free Cape San Blas RV

The location of this site is very nice, and we absolutely loved the time we spent here. Very close (1/4 mile?) To a free public beach that allows dogs on a leash. During our time the beach was rarely crowded. A few things about the site ( don't read into these as negative, just FYI) the water pressure is very high and you will need a good working regulator. The sewer connection is about 2.5 to 3 feet behind the area to park, so those of you with a mid to front location on your RV sewer output you may need 3 hoses. Our 2 hoses barely reached.

Only 35 minutes from Treasure Island Marina if you leave in the early AM. I saved enough in lodging to be able to pay for one of the two dive charters I booked.

We really enjoyed our stay here! The location and proximity to the beach are fantastic! It was nice having a good sized place for our two dogs to hang out and the neighbourhood felt very safe and friendly. The only thing we wish we knew about ahead of time was the house being built next door. Made for a lot of noise every day.
