Rum Runner offers an unbeatable location just a block from the beach, making it a favorite for campers who enjoy easy access to the sand and sea. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, ideal for families and pets, with nearby restaurants adding convenience. While the site is spacious with full hookups, some campers noted issues with leveling and distant hookups. Despite these minor challenges, the overall experience is positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

Hate to leave a GREAT REVIEW but...

38 ft Class A

I almost hate to leave a great review because this large lot may not be available next time we want it. This is the 2nd time that we have stayed here for a month and we just love being just a block off the beach. You can walk down every night for a sunset. Our 38ft class A just fits, the large washer in the shed is awesome and Palm trees swaying in your residential lot that you share with NO ONE! ❤️

Love it

Just a block from the beach! We loved it. Just be careful where you park on the side of the road to get to the beach, the sand is super soft and you'll get stuck like we did! Had to call a tow truck ($100 out the window 🥴).

Mixed feelings

37 ft Class A

We loved the location! Short walk to a beautiful beach. The site itself has some issues. We have a 37ft Class A and didn’t fit on the (broken) concrete pad which made leveling difficult. The sewer hookups were too far back and too high off the ground. Undecided if we’d stay here again; would look for better options first.

Great Location, Great Experience

26 ft travel trailer · With kids

Great neighborhood so close to the beach! We enjoyed riding bikes with our kids around the neighborhood and even down to the Memorial Park. Easy, quick bike ride to Dollar General down Americus Ave. off the busy road. We also enjoyed Shipwreck Oyster Bar literally two blocks away. The washer onsite was a nice bonus, and my daughter enjoyed her first experience hanging clothes on the line to dry. The storage shed is a little close to the camper pad but it does offer some extra shade. We were prepared with extra hose after reading reviews on here, so the distance to the water spigot wasn’t a big deal. It was missing the “handles” so we had to turn it on with pliers. Not a big deal for us. The big yard was great for our dog. The walk to the beach was quick and easy, and we did end up purchasing a beach wagon, which we should have done years ago! There were even extra chairs and beach toys in the shed. Leila was quick to respond to all our questions. I would be prepared with all sorts of insect repellent and a fly swatter because the biting flies were an issue both at the beach and the campsite. I think it’s just par for the course for the time of year. It was a great trip, great location, and we would stay there again!

Perfect Place for Our Beach stay

35 ft travel trailer · With pets

Rum Runner site is very convenient to beach access with just a little walk and cross over the road to the beach. Beach is awesome and very clean and unpopulated. We threw everything in our wagon,no big deal at all The neighborhood is quiet and safe and the site is just two blocks over and one block behind The Shipwreck Oyster Bar. We rode our bikes to dinner two nights of our stay. The site is paved but the pavement is a bit uneven so bring extra leveling blocks. The property is nicely grassed. We have a 35' TT with three slides and it fit perfectly and we were able to put out the awnings out as well with no space issues. The sewer and electric is on one side near the back and the water is near the front on both sides. It has 50/30/120 hookups. An outdoor shower and clothesline for drying towels. The water hookup on the drivers side had broken handle so we couldn't turn it on - we just used the one on the other side. The site is located btwn Port St Joe and Mexico Beach and is convenient to everything you need. The beach is dog friendly so our pups enjoyed their time as well. It was a perfect place to stay for our trip to the beach! p.s. there is a small storage building w a washer and extra beach supplies if needed.
