I just love the boardwalk at Watersound. It's one of my favorite spots in SoWal. Here's a few pictures going down the walk, a lily pond and a few other spots, all in Watersound.

How far is it from Grayton to Watersound? (as in, how long would it take us on bikes?)

Thanks for showing me things I haven't seen before KB! Beautiful. :wub: I am reminded why I have WaterSound envy. :rofl:

How far is it from Grayton to Watersound? (as in, how long would it take us on bikes?)Probably somewhere around 8 miles. At a relaxed pace, you should be able to get there within 45 minutes. (I ride at a pace of around 20mph on my road bike, so I am basing the "relaxed" pace on half speed of my typical pace.

Are the walks open to the public? If we didn't take the bikes, is there a place to park and walk? A 16 mile roundtrip bike ride with a 4 year old in either a bike buggy or ride-behind bike sounds a bit long...

Also, someone recently told me that they were promptly asked to leave WaterSound when they began to bike through there.
"Mam, what about the word 'Private' don't you understand?" :funn:
Maybe KatieBlue can give you some stealth tips.

Hmmm....guess my family better take lessons on how to look like wealthy real estate prospects, then we can say that we are house shopping!:roll:

Grayt pics! We will be there this Saturday! We are staying at the Bridges of WaterSound. Those boardwalks were a big reason we chose WaterSound! Thanks! :cool:

This must be a new development, because Merman and I have ridden our bikes many a time through WaterSound and no one's ever asked us to leave. But then again, we are on their mailing list... ;-)
Katie Blue, wonderful pictures, as always! I liked the way you did a side-by-side saturate/non-saturate photo. Pretty neat!

So if I am detained for trespassing and say I know you, they will let me go??:cool:

great pics ! makes it harder to wait for vacation !
Whoa--were we trespassing?? I had no idea it was forbidden ground. And sorry, I have no lessons to share on stealth ;-). I'm an open book, to my detriment perhaps.
But 'someone say it ain't so', this is one of my very favorite bike rides in the world. Oh well, I suppose I'll always have my pictures..

It's one of my favorite bike rides, too! We'll go for a few rides next week and I'll report back.
jdarg, you and I can scope it out in June. If anyone stops us, we'll say we're checking out the property for consideration for our Christmas vacations. So there!!

No, no stealth involved. Just the truth. 😀

We'll sing Christmas carols while exploring to make it authentic!

With my voice, we'd get arrested for CUI for sure (cycling under the influence). ;-)
