    Pros: Campsites convenient to beach, naturally beautiful, pristine beach, clear water, good facilities, isolated.
    Cons: Mosquitoes and raccoons, raccoons, raccoons!. Isolated, which for me is a pro!

    Summary: I call this park "a paradise" because there are certainly many breathtakingly beautiful natural areas in our country. However, St. Joseph Peninsula State Park (officially the T.H. Stone Memorial Park) definitely ranks among the best. Named the best ... read more

    Pros: remote, beautiful, pristine
    Cons: The yellow biting flies of Florida

    Pros: Beautiful beaches, great bay adventures, dolphins...the 60'dunes are worth the trip!
    Cons: NONE!

    Summary: The State Park has 3 miles of road and then the remaining 7 miles is unpaved, pristine wilderness! It's not unusual to see deer, fox, bald eagles and plenty of fun things in the water! The beaches have up to 60' dunes that look like they have been

    Pros: Beautiful. Quiet. Natural.
    Cons: Lots and lots of mosquitoes.

    Summary: We visited Port St. Joe the summer of 2003. We decided to to go to this area after it was rated by "Mr. Beach" as a great beach. We were not disappointed. It is rather isolated and quiet. The sand is beautiful and the views incredible. The entire area
