Recreation: Camping, fishing, rafting, kayaking, tubing and hiking are the main forms of recreation available here. If you wanted to travel a bit, The Trail of the Hiawatha is not too far for a fun day of biking. Check out this company offering package deals. It is one of several.
Fishing: Fishing is available in the St Joe River and it is a beautiful river. Check the regulations.
Boating: Just below Conrad Campground the river goes into a very narrow canyon with a series of rapids which would be great to run with raft or kayak. I am not into river running so do your homework before attempting this.
Swimming: I didn't see any great swimming hole but one may be able to cool off in the river.
Wildlife: Deer, elk, black bear and grizzly live in these mountains.
