What the owner loves about this home
For the past three years, this hasn't just been a house; it’s been our full-time sanctuary. What we love most is the incredible balance of life here. Because the neighborhood is primarily made up of weekend getaways, our weekdays are remarkably peaceful and quiet. It’s the kind of place where you can truly hear the coastal breeze and enjoy a slower, more intentional pace of life.
Whether it’s starting the morning with a line in the water right from the backyard or ending it with a golf cart ride to our private beach access, every day feels like a vacation. We are only moving to be closer to our new business in Crystal Beach, but we will deeply miss the tranquility and the tight-knit feel of this canal-front community. It’s the perfect spot for anyone looking to escape the noise and embrace the best of the Bolivar Peninsula.
