Mid-30s couple moving to area... social activities @ Watersound Origins?

[Al Tal]

Hi SoWal!

My family (me, wife, 2 month-old baby) are another one of the same story: former 30a vacationers seriously considering a move to your paradise.

After lots of research, I've narrowed our potential neighborhood list down to:
- watersound origins
- point washington area
- Santa Rosa Beach (particularly area near Van R Butler)

Our biggest concern is finding community. We are in our 30s and used to living in mid-sized cities (Austin, Nashville). We understand everything is on beachtime down there, but want to set ourselves up for success in developing friendships.

I've heard Watersound Origins has an active social calendar for its families - can anyone give me more detail about these events?

Thanks for the help! Any other thoughts on the other two areas are tremendously appreciated, too!

Watersound origins has lots of families - tennis, boating, golf, soccer, etc. What do you like to do?

Beware of multilevel marketing hucksters looking to be your new friends. Isagenix, etc.

We’ve lived in two of the three places and enjoyed them both for different reasons. Will send a PM with more details, let me know if it doesn’t go through. Good news is you can’t go wrong with either one!
