    THE MARIGNY - pure creole

    Good luck guys. Looks like you are in the building that used to house The Love Shack. I'm from South Louisiana so I'm looking forward to trying your menu. FYI - I didn't see the restaurant's address on your website. Might want to check that.

    Seaside Anniversary - got a cool Seaside story?

    My wife and I were on our honeymoon in Destin in 1995 at the original Henderson Park Inn. I had done some research of the area and wanted to see this little town called Seaside. We drove to Seaside after lunch one day and was fascinated by wonderful homes and buildings. My fondest memory is...

    Wanted Large Rental Home for Memorial Week 2012 (Beach Side / Elevator)

    We are organizing a family gathering for Memorial Week 2012 (5/26 to 6/2) at the beach. My parents have a hard time getting around, so I'm looking for a particular property to fit our needs. Here's what we are looking for: Sleeps 20+ (mostly adults and larger children), gulf front or very close...

    Summer's Edge - visitor barometer

    Returned from vacation yesterday. All of Chelsea Loop was rented. I actually got to meet a couple of owners who were vacationing and fixing up their houses for the Summer rush. Only a couple of houses on N/S Ryan Street were empty. Even with the full load of renters, the neighborhood was...

    How did you get to SoWal?

    My wife and I came to Destin for our honeymoon in 1995. I had visited the area a couple of times prior and fell in love with the beaches. During our honeymoon, we took a side trip to Seaside, which was still developing at the time. We continued to vacation in Destin almost every year...

    Moving to Florida~30A is my dream...

    First, congratulations on your decision to move to Florida. You are doing what many of us can only dream of. If I were moving to Florida and were interested in living along 30-A, I think one of the best neighborhoods in the area is Cassine Village in Seagrove Beach. For me, it has the best of...

    Is this legal?

    Unfortunately, it is legal. When it is typical for employees to eat meals on site, the employer can deduct an amount from the employee's paycheck. (See below.) Meals and Lodging Federal law allows employers to deduct the cost of providing food and lodging to employees, even if those deductions...

    Looking to buy a condo in SoWal

    For the price range you are looking for, Beachwood and Hidden Beach may be your best bet. These are older properties but have excellent beach access right across the street. You are not going to get a big place below $150,000, although if you are willing to walk a bit, you could probably get a...

    Cassine Village/ Gulf Place

    We have been staying in Cassine Station for the last three years during Memorial week. I've found that Memorial week is one of the best weeks to go to the beach since some school sessions have not ended in many areas of the country. I've never found it crowded (at least compared to other times...

    HR & other hiring pros: advice please

    MissCritter: Sorry to be somewhat vague, but it really would depend on the job you are applying for and the hiring manager. Many hiring managers are looking for practical experience in areas specific to the job. Online certificates do not offer value unless coupled with experience in applying...

    opinions please which - cassine station or Emerald Hill?

    This is probably a little biased since I've never stayed in Emerald Hill -- but I absolutely love Cassine Station. The one big disadvantage from Emerald Hill is that it is not gulf front -- about 100 yards to the beach. Right location -- poor sentence structure! Bonnie's great! I was one of...

    This is probably a little biased since I've never stayed in Emerald Hill -- but I absolutely love Cassine Station. The one big disadvantage from Emerald Hill is that it is not gulf front -- about 100 yards to the beach. Besides that -- Cassine Station is a new complex with stylish rentals and a...

    Demetrios: We stayed in a 1 bdrm / 1-1/2 bath condo with hall bunks in Cassine Station across from One Seagrove Place a couple of years ago. Very new....very simple....very comfortable. Not sure about the dog but you can ask. The owner's name is Hannah Hood (hannahhoekstra@earthlink.net). Here...

    2 fams, gulf front vacation rental

    There is a 3 bedroom/ 2 bath condo in Cassine Station - Seagrove Beach that we call our "home away from home". Master bdrm has a king bed, 2nd bdrm has a king bed and a twin bunk bed, 3rd bdrm has twin/double bunk bed. I'm sure the "little fellow" will have his own special accomodations! The...

    Stores at Grand Isle in Seagrove

    Interesting..... I guess she thought she would do better within a community like Rosemary instead of just along 30-A. I know she was trying to sell the concept, but I guess she changed her mind.

    Stores at Grand Isle in Seagrove

    Thanks for the update! ...and yes, I am very familiar with Amavida. My family and I will be staying across the street in the "Heart of Seagrove" house from June 7-13. I'm sure I'll be getting my fill. I've been reading up on Flip Flops from the board and can't wait to grab a burger. I was...

    What's Up at Prominence?

    I thought the Prominence developers were fined for doing the original clear cutting. I'm surprised they would cut more... :confused: In my opinion, this is (was) yet another example of developers trying to throw something on 30-A to make a buck without a clear plan.

    Cassine Gardens Best Kept Secret

    I am familiar with most of the homes and condos in Cassine, and agree that this is the perfect neighborhood on 30-A. Not many people talk about it -- it is simple and has everything you need. If I didn't have so many pots on the fire right now (i.e. crazy family and crazy job), I would take it...

    Angelino's and Great Southern Cafe

    I'm with you, my BR buddy. One of the first things I always do when arriving in Seagrove Beach is order a pizza and gargonzola salad from Angelina's. The only place I avoid anymore is The Old Fish House. Go Tigers!

    Drago-style Chargrilled Oysters

    Drago's is one of my all-time favorite restaurants! My parents gave each of us a quart of fresh shucked oysters as one of our Christmas presents. (Can you tell I live in SE Louisiana!!!) I fried the entire quart the other night and have been eating fried oysters for two days straight!

    Large Rental Needed for Memorial Day or Thanksgiving

    Thanks for the advice. I put this in the requirements because I'm not sure my entire family could survive one week in the same house together! I wanted the properties next to each other so that we could at least eat a few meals together.

    Las Vegas Restaurants?

    Need vacation spot for Fall

    I am a big fan of the condos at Cassine Station. These were built in 2006 - everything is brand new and top notch. The condos are on the north side of 30-A right across from One Seagrove Place. These condos are not gulf front - just walk across the street directly to the beach. There is very...

    SoWal Condo Purchase - End of '07?

    Thanks for the great advise, Paula. For about the last four years, I've vacationed in the 30-A neighborhoods that I would be interested in buying. I'm keeping all options open, although I'm really stuck on one particular property, but the association fees are expensive. I'm going to be in the...
