Can anyone tell me about Cassine Village? I just rented a house there for a week in May. Thanks!

Good for you. Cassine is pretty cool, close to the beach and adjacent to miles of nature trails. Look for the Cypress Swamps (beautiful) too. Plenty of good eating all around that area.

May is a great month to visit. Hope you have fun,

Great location. You can walk to lots of restaurants, ie, Angelina's and Cafe 30-A, and the Tom Thumb convenience store is nearby too, if you pull in really late and need milk for the next morning.

It is private property. These photos were taken just past the townhomes on the east side of the property where it connects into the State Forest. Perhaps you could go look at one of the townhomes which is for sale, and take a short stroll afterward. ;-) There are a couple of Cypress Swamps on the property and the nature trails go right through them. Look for signs marked "nature trail."

That might make me purchase one and I cannot do that quite yet

You'll love it! We own a townhome in Cassine Gardens - the Village is behind it and the homes are great rentals. The Village and Gardens share two pools, a tennis court (though it's definitely in need of some re-paving!), a pond and a great nature trail to name just a few things. There is a public beachwalk across the street from Cassine Gardens, but there is still a dispute between Walton County and some private owners who are trying to take it over. It's been hung up in the courts for months and the result has been that no one has fixed it up after the last hurricane destroyed it. The best way for you to get to the beach I think will probably be One Seagrove, which is the highrise across the street and to the right as you come out of the village. There is a public beach crossover there.

While you're there, be sure to stop into Cocoon's Deli. It's on the north side of 30-A just as you're pulling out of Cassine Village. They make great breakfast croissants, the coffee is the best and the Tiramasu is to die for! Great fresh deli sandwiches and home made salads, etc. too. The owner is a friendly guy who's a wealth of information about the area and loves to share his knowledge. He and his wife moved to the area from New York years ago and opened the deli. We never stay in the area without making at least one visit to Cocoons just to grab something yummy and catch up on the latest news of the area!

If you have any questions about the Cassine area, feel free to PM me. Have fun!! :clap_1:
