6 Comments on “Shadowy St. Joe”

  1. In the verbage it suggests there is horseback riding allowed in the recreation area.
    No where in the campsite information did I see anything about horse camping for those interested in exploring the recreation sites on horseback!
    Is there really a place for horse campers?

    • Great question Brett!
      And you’re correct – Shadowy St. Joe does not have any equestrian camping and/or facilities. There is horseback riding in the general area though. We clarified that in our overview.

  2. Jeff Taylor says:

    I have been looking for information on the length of the pads/driveways. What is the max length for Travel Trailer?

    • Hey Jeff,
      Can’t confirm, but most sites look to have a parking spur ranging in side from 25-32 feet in length.

      • Kimberly McHenry says:

        I am looking at site 1 and 12 pictures are great but it does not say how long the pads are?

      • Hey Kimberly,
        Your comment gave us an idea – to include pad length in the pictures. I added those for Shadowy St Joe and hope to do the same for others. Campsite #1 can fit an RV or trailer up to 40 feet, and #12 up to about 25 feet.
