Help! A friend of mine is staying in Grayton Beach and her dog just got out. His name is Henry and he is a beagle mix, gray and white. Can't see or hear well but very friendly. Phone #678-642-2903. Thx!
These beach chair vendors are ruining our beaches! We've been vacationing in Grayton for over 15 yrs. and 2 yrs. ago we encountered the beach chair vendors. My husband decided to beat them to their game and arrived to set us up beachfront before 7 a.m. When the vendors arrived they asked us...
Actually looking for a LTR. Asked hubby if maybe we could rent this while looking, but think we'll be coming down next week to look around. It's a gorgeous condo!
You may save some money without a realtor, but the realtors have info on the best deals sometimes before they even go on the market. Get a realtor if you're serious about buying! IMHO!
Had no idea there were coral reefs in Grayton. How far out were you and how deep? I have to agree with another post that next time you see a lionfish, spear it. They will ruin the reef. I here they make great fish tacos.
Had some raw oysters in New Orleans in March at my favorite dive and they were delicious. Was back in May, same place, and found them to be tasteless. Just had some in Apalachicola last week and found them to also be tasteless. Don't know what's going on. Can't blame the restaurants!
The Lakeplace south of 30-A in Grayton Beach is a 50 home gated community on Western Lake that does not allow short term rentals. Good luck and lucky you!!!!!!!
Jdarg - I own property there and like to keep up with what's going on. Before our horrible experience in June, we were ready to build. Too many rules and restrictions because there are too many people now!!!!!! Thought I was safe because highrises were not allowed anymore.
I love bringing my dogs to the beach. Yes, they are on a leash. This is one of the reasons that Walton County just doesn't do it for me anymore. Too many rules, too many restrictions.
Happy to see the water quality is better. It was poor or beyond poor during the summer months. I am not trying to ruin anyone's vacation, just wanted everyone to be informed. We were not, and paid the price. It felt like the original Jaws movie when the mayor didn't want the people to know...
The beach may be the best, but my family will NEVER get in that water again. People, open your eyes!!!!! I've owned property there for 10 years and have always planned on building and retiring there. Taking my grandchildren to the beach and playing in Western Lake the way my son did. It was...
It's called Shorty's. Casual. Actually have never eaten there. There are 2 Publix's now. One on 98 and another at Watercolor, which is the closest. Grayton doesn't look much different, just wanted to give ya'll a heads up. Have a wonderful time!!!!!
I am sure you will have a wonderful time at the beach for Christmas! BTW, Grayton is much different than it was in 2001. No more Patrone's - I used to love to ride my bike thru there! No general store on the corner - it is now a restaurant. Larger grocery on the corner of 30-A with other...
I am appalled at what is going on with the Gulf waters and our supposedly pristine coastal dune lakes. No where else in the world are coastal dune lakes other than Australia. This is a disgusting situation which must be solved immediately!!!!!
Oh and I forgot to mention. Who let the chair rental people in Grayton? There are no condos to speak of there. They won't even let you set up near the water. We beat them out there one morning and they wanted us to move!
4robbins - I feel your pain. I remember the days when you could walk your dogs on the beach in Grayton, swim in the Gulf and Western lake without getting violently ill with diarrhea and vomiting from high fecal matter in the water. I've owned a lot there for 10 years with the dreams of...
Bent,
I did not go out to eat the entire time that I was there. The Walton county sheriff drove right behind us on Grayton beach with his loud speaker making the announcement. He would stop every few feet or so and make it again. People down by the water didn't even hear him. They actually...
Kurt,
Sorry, I meant fetal position. I had a feeling you would think this was something other than the water. Call Walton County Sheriff's department and ask them what they announced on the beach on Friday. I was there. "Do not swim in the Gulf." "High levels of animal fecal matter have...
I would be more worried about the water quality, especially after this storm. So many people got violently ill this pasted week all along sowal with diarrhea and vomiting plus body aches from the high concentration of animal fecal matter in the gulf. One Walton county sheriff's deputy was in...
This absolutely disgusts me. I have been visiting Grayton for over 20 yrs. now and have never had a problem. Both my son, his wife, their 17 month old child and my husband got sick this week. Horribly sick. Like ruin your vacation sick. How can this be with all of the visit south walton...
Water Quality Advisory
Just returned from Grayton beach for the week. My son and his wife were extremely sick (throwing up and diarrhea) on Thurs. nite. We thought that it was food poisoning. Couldn't figure out where it had come from though. On Friday, they were still at the cottage...
