Forbes Magazine selected Sandestin as one of the 12 Best Private Golf Communities in the country.

Forbes Magazine selected Sandestin as one of the 12 Best Private Golf Communities in the country.

If value plays a role in golf community quality, then it is hard to beat Sandestin, and virtually no place your vacation home dollars go further. Located on the famed 26-mile stretch of “sugar sand” beach in South Walton County in the Panhandle, one of the best beaches in the world, the region is a far cry from crowded and heavily developed south Florida. A huge development built by Intrawest, the company behind Whistler/Blackcomb and Copper Mountain, 2400-acre Sandestin contains 30-different sub-communities with thousands of homes and condos, and it has won endless awards from Golf Magazine and Golf Digest for its four high quality golf courses including The Raven by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. and the flagship Burnt Pines, an excellent Rees Jones design that winds through pristine coastal terrain and forest with extensive wooden boardwalks and is also a Champions Tour venue. There is a large tennis club, spa, 98-slip marina, seven miles of beach and coastline, a shopping center, a large pedestrian retail village, 20 restaurants, and several hotels. Owners have to share the courses with resort guests, but that is part of the reason why the value proposition is so strong and there is plenty of golf to go around. As large, affordable communities go (homes run as high as $3-4 million, but condos start under $200,000 and the majority of residences are in the $250-$600,000 range), the quantity and quality of golf, plus the myriad other facilities at Sandestin cannot be beat, and the nearby beach and fishing and watersports are all superb. - Forbes Magazine

Boaters on the water in the Emerald Coast.

Autumn along northwestern Florida’s 24-mile-long Emerald Coast brings fewer tourists and lower, “value season” rates to the wide, sugar-white beaches of Destin, Fort Walton, and Okaloosa Island. The summer-worthy temperatures (highs in the 80s, lows in the 60s) are ideal for swimming in clear, emerald-green Gulf of Mexico waters or for golfing the more than 1,080 manicured, championship holes. October’s monthlong Destin Fishing Rodeo draws more than 30,000 saltwater anglers to the self-proclaimed World’s Luckiest Fishing Village to compete for daily, weekly, and overall prizes. Watch the daily weigh-ins of king mackerel, marlin, sailfish, and other game fish on the docks at A.J.’s Seafood & Oyster Bar. Sample fresh-from-the-docks seafood at historic Staff’s Restaurant, the Emerald Coast’s first eatery, which is housed in a 1913 barrel-shaped Fort Walton warehouse and open daily for dinner. The signature Broiled Skillet—grouper, shrimp, scallops, and crabmeat stuffing drizzled with cheese—comes with baskets of fresh-baked wheat bread.

The views of Camp Creek Lake and the Gulf of Mexico beyond from the second-floor balcony.

Enjoy one of the best views in South Walton while eating dinner in this Cape Cod style home in WaterSound. The second-floor kitchen and great room offer views of the calm tannic waters of Camp Creek Lake stretching toward scrub oak covered dunes and the Emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico beyond.

This nearly 3,000-square-foot home has four bedrooms including two masters and four and a half baths. Rich 110-year-old Heart of Pine floors are featured throughout the home. Honed black granite countertops that have a faded finish are fixtures in the bathrooms and kitchen. Both master bedrooms one upstairs and the other downstairs have walk in closets and spacious bathrooms with Travertine tile showers, beige marble flooring and Whirlpool tubs.

The second-floor master bath is truly special with the tub in front of a bank of windows so you can take in the calming landscapes and Camp Creek Lake. Blue tile behind the Viking gas cook top adds an elegant touch to the first-rate kitchen. A breakfast bar, custom self-closing cabinets and premier appliances complete the kitchen. Extra cabinets and countertop space in the dinning area have room for those kitchen items, like fine china, that won’t be used everyday.

The view from any window in the attached great room will have you spellbound. Camp Creek Lake is teeming with wild life, like ducks, fish and turtles. The bright white sand dunes stand as if they were sentinels at the edge of the lake guarding the brackish waters from continually mixing with the soothing waves from the Gulf of Mexico.

A small green between the garage and house is perfect for a hammock or a table to enjoy the Florida sun. The home is just across the street from the neighborhood pool, which offers an expansive sun deck and clubhouse. But if the pool isn’t cool enough, then head down to the beach through the private access and enjoy the white sands and warm salty waters. After a day at the beach you can grab your favorite battle of wine from the temperature-controlled wine rack in the kitchen and enjoy it on one of the four screened porches with their breathtaking vistas of serene WaterSound.
