We're shedding the old name, Rustic Sands, and transforming into a new RV Resort!
Category 5 Hurricane Michael passed directly over Mexico Beach in 2018, nearly destroying the resort and everything else in its path. It's been a hard few years for the resort, but with new ownership and a great team that cares about your comfort, we're working hard to turn this into a 5-star destination you'll be sure to enjoy. If you've been here before, we invite you to visit us again! You'll be excited to see the changes and renovations taking place.
Mexico Beach RV Resort is under new ownership and renovations. For more details about renovations and what amenities are impacted, please call our office prior to your stay at 850-648-5229.

Enjoy fantastic weather year-round, immaculate RV sites with easy access to full hook-ups, and fun-loving amenities all just moments from the sugar-white beaches of the gulf coast.

Campground was nice and quiet. A little traffic noise but not too bad. It had a boat dock and pier to observe the St. Marks River. The St. Marks lighthouse is so close and a must see during all times of the day. We visited at least twice, once to walk along the beach and the second time to see the sunset. There are so many beautiful sights in the area. We visited Alligator Point and Bald Point State Park. We saw a bald eagle and so many other species of birds. I will return. The host was gracious and very informative. They did have some trouble with the restrooms, they were closed for a short time when we arrived and closed again before we left. However, we did use the showers and the bathhouse was clean when it was operational. I would recommend this camp if you are exploring the area and there is a lot to explore.

This place is great! A beach within a short walk, palm trees,clean bathrooms, wildlife, sunsets………… And the Florida State Parks system is contactable and friendly!!! There are hike in spots for those with tents who want to. There are very nice screened in cabins available.
GuideFlorida State Parks did a great job redoing this campground after Hurricane Michael in 2018. Brand new facilities, excellent camping pads, and good beach access. You can still see some of the hurricane damage which is a testament to the severity of Michael in the area.

Great State Park. Under a little construction can’t wait to see when completed. Beaches. Views. All hook ups. Quiet and at the end of Panama Beach away from the big tours areas.

You have to love the lonelyness here. On the weekend there have been three other parties with tents. From Sunday to Monday we have been the only ones. Then it becomes really lonely, dark and quiet out here. Some fishermen are using the fishing pier or the boat ramp at the end of the campground. The campground itself was clean and well maintained. (We did not use the toilet house. And did not check that.) No power, no water, no WiFi, no store. T-Mobile was very good with 300+ Mbps. The last 3 miles are dirt road, but in good condition as long as you can stay in the middle without traffic. Our lot #5 was pretty even. Overall definitely a recommendation if you like the quiet nature and lonelyness.

We stayed at site D7A this was our first time stay at Indian pass we loved it we have a 40’ 5th wheel and it fit in the site easy site was a little un level but not to bad it was quiet even when the park was packed we will absolutely be back
GuidePros: -Right on the water, 1 minute walk to the beach. We could see the water from our site A1 -quiet and remote area with fewer people than surrounding 30A areas -close to Cape San Blas and Port St Joe to explore -clean bathrooms and showers
Cons:

We have a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and stayed in site 64 for 4 days in mid April. This is a relatively small CG, with~15 wooded sites that are reasonably spaced. The CG is very clean, recently renovated, well maintained and relatively inexpensive. Most of the sites are water only, but there are a handful of them that also have 50A service. The roads and sites are sandy gravel. Our site had a little bit of slope side to side, but not too bad. There aren’t any hiking trails leading from the CG, but there are others in the area. There are no lights in the CG except the two on the bathhouse, which are unnecessarily as bright as the Sun
AT&T coverage was pretty dismal, with 1 bar of 5GE service and speeds only up to 0.9 MB/s. The CG has a lot of trees, but the pines only have top foliage, so access and coverage for DISH and Starlink was really good. Starlink was able to get speeds up to 20 MB/s with few if any dropouts. No CG WiFi.
GuideMixed feelings about this campground. It has too many sites too close together, but if few people are there it is peaceful. We stayed on a weeknight. Several people used the boat ramp, but only one other camper. So the night was quiet. I could see how it could be well used for day picnics and fishing and could become quite noisy. The boat ramp is separated from the camp a bit, and it was not noisy.
Not much view of lake from sites, but the lake is pretty from the fishing pier and boat launch. A bit of trash in some sites but not too bad. I'm guessing someone does not come and check on this site every day. We were in a van and did not try the pit toilets.
It is about 3 miles from the main road, one mile of speed bumps, two of dirt, but it is level and well packed.
GuideSomewhat isolated, but Saint Joe is not far away. Everything you need is pretty much on site. Great place for kayaking, surf fishing, and there’s a boat ramp right next-door. Beautiful scenery, and well almost always full, it’s not a large campground, and you have some privacy. 3 miles down. The road is a nice oyster bar. The camp office sells frozen bait. Verizon service is excellent. 
TravelerStayed on sit 58 right on water, full hook up, Bathrooms clean, Wi-Fi good but you have to sign in with the company providing it 7 dollars a day, great access to beaches, good fishing along beaches and jetties, plenty of places to walk and ride bikes
ScoutNothing fancy, but a nice spot to stay. They do have bathrooms and shower which are clean. They also have FHU, W/E and primitive. It is located on a busy HWY 98 so there is traffic noise during the day. St. Marks wildlife refuge is right across the street and Wakulla Springs is about 10 minutes down the road.
ScoutSmall campsites but it's a small campground. Picnic table and fire ring at each site. 2 out house style restrooms. Cleaned weekly. Took a long dirt road to get back to campground and got lost 1st time going in. Have stayed there twice since I have family living in Tallahassee. Once in spring and once in fall. Found tics on me both times so beware. Chiggers got on me too. That's just camping in the woods. Will definitely be making future trips back.
GuideWe camped here in 2022 and loved it! Water views, tons of trails, both walking and biking, deer cane right into our campsite a few times and we saw so many on our bike rides. Beautiful campground, well maintained! One of our favorites!
LegendThis is one of our favorite state parks! Make reservations early, they book up quick! You can make reservations 11 months in advance but we have scored a site setting up a cancellation notification.
The jetty area is perfect for young kids, it’s shallow enough for them to play and very little waves. Water is beautiful!! Be sure to bring your own chairs and umbrella, they are expensive to rent.
Campground has full hook ups, big rig friendly, laundry (bring your own quarters) and clean bath houses!
LegendPROS
Entire site pea gravel
Moveable wooden and metal picnic table

We had such a fun time camping at the goat farm. Where you literally camp with goats. The male goats hang out right beside you and your tents. (Be sure to keep your tents closed or they will sleep with you too, ha!) The kids absolutely loved it. They cried when it was time to leave and told all the animals bye. The staff is so friendly and helpful. We would love to go and stay there again!
GuideAmazing state park on the water. The campground is modern with nice clean bathrooms, laundry machines, vending machines, park store with cart rentals and other items. The spaces are close together but great. Nice level gravel pads, full hookups including sewer, and most have fire pits and picnic table.
ScoutGreat campground, much to do in the park & around the park. IMO, best beaches in the USA.
LegendJust stopping for the night, arrived at dusk. Super friendly and helpful staff. Lovely site. Fairly close so not much privacy. 50 amp - not sure if there is sewer hookup - too many bloody mosquitoes so hooked up electric and went inside as I have water onboard. Did not need to unhook 5th wheel.
GuideLevel and newish gravel sites so still LOTS of rocks no mud. Fire pits on a brick base. Newer wooden picnic tables. State park has a beach with public restrooms. There are 3 camp stores throughout the park. One at beach, one at jetty, one closer to camp. Many campsites are tight on the bay and you can see the water from most of the sites. It’s a large park. You can rent golf carts to get around. There is a large center area in the campground with a built in corn hole game and a giant checker board with a large community fire pit. There are areas along the sandy bay shoreline in the campground where you can sit on the beach. The bathhouse is ok. Certainly not terrible but it won’t wow you. It would be better if the showers had a private “dry area”. That’s the one part about the bathhouse I don’t care for. You either stand in the wet shower to dress and possibly get your clothes wet or come out naked. But if you don’t need to shower in there it’s awesome!
LegendBrand new campground. Nice gravel sites. Some are waterfront. A little less “outdoor feeling” than other Florida state parks but very comfortable. The park itself is great with an amazing beach.
LegendAt the end of of the end of the road, beautiful waterfront location with sand beach. Our site (a4) was not the best but the campground is nice. Not first class amenities, but overall ok.
GuideBrand new but like a RV park
ScoutVery nice sites, well developed, well kept
Scout
Not much privacy
