Back in the 1960's, the St. Johns River was
covered with fish camps where you could stay the night in a lodge, fill your boat up on gas, get a soda pop and some crackers, and then make your way on to your favorite fishing hole bright and early the next morning. Today, most of those facilities have been torn down to make way for new homes and growth. However, one still remains, and carries on a tradition of peaceful river life. That place is the Half Shell Resort RV Park. The Half Shell Resort brings you back to the peace and quiet of "Old Florida", but allows you to have all the modern conveniences you so enjoy of today. Gone are the days of the river gas pump and the bait and snack shop, but, the old Florida oaks, the abundance of fish, the large boat dock, the amazing sunsets, and the tranquility of the camp still remain. |
If you are looking for more than just peace and quiet, or a good fishing trip, feel free to venture out on day road trips throughout north and central Florida. Half Shell is conveniently located 5 miles south of Downtown Palatka, just off US Hwy 17. Major tourist destinations like Orlando, Daytona, St. Augustine & Jacksonville are all less than an hours drive. Also, Half Shell is located in one of North Florida's best hunting spots. Hunting and Fishing Guides are readily available to assist in these areas.
If you are looking to relax, have fun, or just get away from the business of the world, Half Shell offers you all that and more. Come see our facility, and, as you watch the sunset on the St. Johns River, maybe you too will be able to return to the "Old Florida" of days gone by.
