Leila’s spot was great. We loved that it was only a block from the beach. The shed storage and laundry machine was helpful- especially because of the humidity and moisture over night. It was hard to get clothing dry without a dryer. (We used a laundromat in town) The black tank hook up was not threaded to secure a connection but it still worked. Red tide was high while we were there.
Overall it was a beautiful spot just steps away from a beautiful dog friendly beach. We loved the location and so did our pets. Would recommend!

I loved camping at this location. First, I travel with my dog. So, the fenced in yard on three sides was nice. It was open and spacious. Plenty of space for larger RVs. Mine is a small teardrop and the lot could have held a much larger RV. The hookups were easy to use. and on the right side of the lot. So, you back your RV into the spot. Then, you have lots of space in front of your RV for set up of tents, TV, grill, etc. Now, let's talk about 'why' you would choose this spot. It is a very short walk to the beach. I made that walk three or four times a day. I went in November. So, the beach was empty and the weather perfect for both football and relaxing. Plus, Shipwreck Raw Bar is close if you want to eat out instead of grilling. I will definitely stay here again!

Beautiful sunrise!!!! This camp is everything it says. 5 miles to amenities, and you have the whole place to yourself. Aside from a little traffic noise in the evening can’t beat it.

Private, levelish, walk to beach if you're not to old. Easy parking this time of year.
Good hookups, and there's 120v at the meter too.
Really enjoyed the space. 6 nights went so fast!

We loved our stay here. My husband's favorite part was the pier for fishing. Mine was the sunrise view.
It is on a hwy but the noise wasn't bad. Everything else about this site makes it worth it.

We love the beach & being able to stay so close to it in our RV with our pets & with privacy was awesome. Wonderful, spot. Crazily enough, this was our first time using all of the full hookup options, for we have been basically boon docking for a year, so you can imagine just how awesome it was to have all of those things accessible. We enjoyed exploring the neighborhood on our bicycles, pedaling to Shipwreck for a delicious lunch and even exploring the beautiful Veterans Park just a short distance away & best yet, having such close beach access within a short walking distance. At night, we used the fishing cleaning table as our cooking spot & then enjoyed our meals outside under the stars.
The only thing we have to complain about has nothing to do with our camp site, it was just so sad to be at the beach during a red tide. We’ve heard about them, but never experienced one first hand. We walked the beach on the days we were there, but did not get to swim or put our feet in the ocean, due to the abundance of dead fish and sea creatures floating and laying dead onshore. The town came by daily to rake them up, and on our last day, sadly there was enough to fill a dump truck. :(
We hope to return some day and get that ocean swim & this place would definitely be a repeat place to stay. Thanks for sharing your peace of beach life with us.

Better than expected. The view overlooking the water was amazing, with beautiful sunrises and sunsets that made it worth every penny. The spot was clean, quiet, and easy to set up. The shower house was small but well kept. Bring a 30 to 50 amp adapter as it states in the listing. Great stay, would definitely come back.

Overview
About
A trip to Port St. Joe means checking out the bay and gulf in one vacation. You get to double your pleasure and double your fun. Miles of white sand separate both bodies of water. Sugar-white sands serve sunbathers in the summertime. Swim in the water on the ocean side, and then snorkel in the bay to see aquatic life.
Two nature trails take you through high sand dunes. From atop the highest dune, you can see both the ocean and the bay. Birdwatchers enjoy nearly 250 species of migratory birds call this place home.
If you're really lucky, you might see some nesting sea turtles or the endangered St. Andrews beach mouse. Anglers can cast their lines for speckled trout, flounder, red drum, mullet, whiting, bluefish, and shark. Scallop season happens in late summer and early fall.
Campgrounds cater to tent campers among the dunes. Cabins face the bay. Please call ahead to see what kind of camping is available for your vacation.

Hard to find an open weekend but we checked consistently and lucked out by snagging someone’s cancellation during rough weather. Cabins are great, very comfortable with several little spots to curl up. Kitchen is very serviceable. Little grocery store is well equipped.

You should remove this listing as this campground no longer exists following last Falls hurricane season. It is now on an island.

My husband and I LOVE camping here. Dogs are allowed on the beach which is a major plus for us. You are somewhat close to your neighbors but we have never had a problem with noise. The bathrooms are pretty clean and easily accessible. You can be on the beach in an under 5 minute walk from virtually every campsite. The mosquitos get a little nasty if the wind dies down, but that is the only con!

Pros: Having easy access to power, clean toilets & HOT showers. Cons: They pack you in to the camping area like sardines & the fire ants are vicious! Wear proper shoes & bug repellant. Bring a fan, it's hot!
