We spent two nights at St. Joseph State Park with our 3 kids, ages 6,4, and 2. This was our first camping experience and found the state park to be a great time. We found the sites that were closest to the beach a little windy for our tent so next time we will either bring a stronger tent or... more

Visited St Joseph Peninsula State Park on Sept 15-16 2007. The park is really beautiful. We set up camp at one of the gulf side sites that have both water and electricity. The park's sites can be easily reviewed and booked on [--]. The gulf side sites had two bathrooms with showers that were very clean. The camp area has... more

This park is beatiful! The gulf side is clean with a lovely view without all the hotels and buildings. There weren't very many people at this beach either which was a big plus. The bayside was interesting. The water isn't very deep close to the shore so it is great for snorkling. The water is a little cloudy and has... more

St. Joe's is truly a fabulous place. Quite remote and very beautiful. While the rest of the peninsula is being bought up and developed at an alarming rate, the state park is still quite pristine. They offer campsites and cabins, but my girlfriend and I decided to do "primitive camping", which requires you to hike in at least a mile... more
