    St Joe Build Out Dates

    Do you really think JOE wants to buy anything back they have sold? No way. They have more problems to deal with.

    St Joe Build Out Dates

    For all practical purposes, there are no buildouts at Watersound. They opened that can of worms several years ago when they extended the first buildouts when the economy went south with a huge amount of flippers still holding properties they never had any intention to build on. I would not worry...

    Throwing garbage on 30a

    I happened to be behind a Isuzu Trooper yesterday heading east on 30a past 395 when I noticed a cup flying out of the window. Went on a little further & candy wrappers start flying out. Next was a couple of lorge cups with ice still in them still further down the road. This stuff was being...

    Items on the beach overnight

    Mrs. the kid & myself had a similar experience several years ago at Deer Lake Park--pre-nice walkover & pre Watersound---she left her flip-flops at the edge of the path leading to the beach after receiving several hard looks from the local guys who hung around there. When we came back from our...

    Any advice for our drive to the beach?

    Its pretty easy--just take 78 into Birmingham---hit int. 65 there--go south thru Montgomery take Georgiana exit ( I think it is 113) go thru Georgiana hit 55 thru Andalusia to Florala where u hit 331 to 98---that is the best way that I have found.

    Any advice for our drive to the beach?

    Also, from Tupelo it depends where you are going to be staying in the panhandle as far as which route is best to take from there. Let me know & I will give you the best way to go.

    Any advice for our drive to the beach?

    In answer to your question, Hgw 78 is between Memphis & Tupelo. It is only about 70 minutes between the two. New Albany is about 20 minutes closer. Both towns have plenty of decent places for an overnight stop. Hope this helps

    What's Up at Prominence?

    Re: Prominence From every discussion I have had with the JOE sales people they tried very hard to buy the land, but the old man who owned the property would not come off his high asking price. Then the Prominence people came in & paid it. I also heard as the land sat there & the real estate...

    Watersound North Pricing

    We also have a place in Watersound & are currently starting to build. I agree it is very nice to go down ther now & not have to worry about it being crowded. I feel that in the long run the current bust in values will be a good thing because the people who are left will be the ones who really...

    Should we join WaterSound Beach Club??

    In my opinion the new Beachclub will not make it as it is presently set up. We were just down there & used our free membership. Unescorted kids running around was a big problem, I guess while the parents were poolside not paying attention at all. I also have a big problem with the buildout...

    Should we join WaterSound Beach Club??

    We are going to pass on joining, but I should be quick to add that we don't have a condo or intend to rent our place. Cost is a bit steep. It is a very nice setting tho with a great view for sunset. It will be interesting to see how the membership grows until building really gets going to the...

    What's Up at Prominence?

    Re: Prominence Yes, Prominence is completly landlocked. As for the comment that they will work out something with Watersound, u gotta be kidding me. That will NEVER happen. They will probably have a shuttle going to Deer Lake Park. :cool:

    Hurricane Shutters

    SGB--I am coming down ASAP to try to find panels for our house in Seagrove. Did you install yours yourself? I am going the Lexan + aluminum route. Hoping to find out where I can get these materials. What do you guys suggest???

    Hurricane Shutters

    We hear Lexan & or crinkled aluminun shutters were an alternative. Does anyone know who handles or installs these? We have a place in Seagrove. I also heard Home Depot has something along these lines.
