Due to our line of work, my husband and I always look for some place to unwind and tune out the world when we it’s time to decompress. This campsite provided all of that and more! The site was clean and well equipped to have our unit set up and running in short time. The forest backdrop made for peaceful mornings sipping coffee under the awning as we watched birds and dragonflies buzzing about; I’ve never see so many birds at one location: blue jays, cardinals, woodpeckers and ospreys. The neighborhood was quiet, clean, and friendly. I enjoyed a walk each morning to work on my “step quota” for the day. I also enjoyed the short walk straight from the driveway to the sugar sands each day. A short drive to Port St. Joe city limits provided for any essentials or other needs. We also explored nearby Cape San Blas and Mexico Beach. It’s amazing how the community is rejuvenating after hurricane devastation five years ago. We enjoyed breakfast one morning at Shipwreck Raw Bar; a recommendation from Wayne. The weather was exceptional during our visit. While the breeze could get gusty on the beach, it felt amazing at the campsite. It was truly a wonderful few days to unwind and rejuvenate. Wayne has made a pleasant site that he graciously shares with others who like experience a slower paradise!
Only recommendation would be to make a back and two sides around the outdoor shower. It felt amazing on the hot days but limited the full showering experience with no privacy around the area.

Highly recommend
We loved this spot! The directions were very clear for how to back in, the spot is clearly marked and level - with a cute picnic table, mats, fire pit, clothesline, and excellent outdoor shower/foot rinse station combo. We loved how peaceful, dark and quiet this location was.
One thing to be aware of, we didn't have service at all. I had to walk down the street a bit to get a phone call out, text messages would go through, but that's about it for our verizon service. Even our tmobile hotspot couldn't get through, its just a dead zone. Our host had wireless but we couldn't connec to that either. But no big deal, its vacation and healthy to unplug from life. It was an easy walk down the street to the beach, tons of food trucks in the surrounding area, and Port St. Joe was a short drive away with anything else you might want to see.

Awesome experience for first timers
Wow! This was my first trip using HipCamp and I found a great location and host. The host has thought of everything and the location couldn't be better. The location is quiet, private, with full hook up. Just a few blocks from the beach, in a very walker friendly community. Definitely will visit again. Very responsive host, with detail instructions for self checking. Very nice experience. 👌

Thanks for a good first experience
This was our first time using HipCamp,
and Wayne was a most helpful host with good communication throughout. When we arrived he was waiting for us to guide us into our spot which required a 90 degree turn while backing.
The walk to the beach was about 4 blocks, and the hike to the raw bar was also doable. HOWEVER, be sure that you set your clocks to eastern time, or you may miss their actual hours.
On the negative (-ish) side, the Wi-Fi does not work very well (but cellular and internet service in the area as a whole was not very friendly to our Verizon phones). The other surprise was that the next door neighbor is close, but drawing the front curtain on the rv took care of that nicely!
There is not a lot to do within walking distance which is just fine if are coming to relax and visit the beach.
All in all, we definitely would stay again and would recommend this host.

White sandy beaches.
The site prep was perfect and Wayne has given solid thought as to the planning for 50amp, water, sewer and short 3 block walk to beach. The site was level and he has purposefully placed sheets of plywood down over the sand in an effort to lessen the amount of sand in the RV. There is an outdoor shower (cold) and foot wash on site. He was kind enough to leave a 30amp adapter for our use. A garbage can was provided as well. It is a wonderful walking neighborhood and his property backs up to woods. We felt very safe while out walking the dogs as well as at our RV site. Very quiet neighborhood and great viewing of the stars.
