I almost crapped. a house in there went under contract listed at 700k. Those houses were 300k 2 yrs ago. 30-a is reforming a bubble

Review: Naturewalk at Seagrove

We've had an enjoyable stay. Here are our pros and cons of the community
Cons:
* We expected there to be new construction while here, however 4 house going up right across the street and another one 2 doors down with hammers/saws beginning @ 7:30 am 6 days out of 7 was a bit more than we bargained for. We are early risers so that helped a bit.
*Parking is very limited and the allyway behind the homes is very narrow.
*Homes are very close together.
Pros:
*The home is beautiful and spacious.
*The pool area is beautiful and very well furnished. Of course it is new, so I guess it should be......
*The full time residence are so friendly and helpful. We were even invited over to a neighbor's porch for a glass of wine.
*Grocery store close by, which we biked to.
*Easily biked to Seaside and Watercolor.
****Found out about a path through the "woods" to get to San Juan St. which we used to bike to Bramble Grove Beach. We loved this and it was so easy!
* There is a tram service to the beach. We never used it because we biked, but we saw families with younger kids using it.
*Nighttime is so quiet!!!
*Kids had fun biking around the community.
*Being able easily jump on 98 to go to PCB was really handy.

So, would we return again? Maybe- there are so many wonderful places to stay, and this stay was nice, but we weren't wowed by any means. I think for a true "beach experience" I probably would not pick this location. But something like a family reunion would probably work well here.
Thanks to everyone for your help in planning our visit!

shooze who i really salute are the builders. those lots could have been bought for 15-25k at one pt. i bet the builder is netting 200k or more per $450k house. Yes its a nice development but i assure you 99% of family's aren't going to be happy driving 10-17 hrs to be 2,5 miles from the beach its that simple. and when natures walk built out i believe its 500 or more homes how arew they going to fit a small narrow public beach area. as you said theres tons of other places to stay 90% closer to the beach for the same $

ata, To be clear: we did not find similar size homes closer to the beach for the same price. We rented a 4 bed 4 bath/small dog friendly and this was certainly the better price, by far, than something closer to the beach. We had people in our family who preferred spending less time at the beach and more time at the pool and this locale worked well for them. I am not so sure someone could get the same size/quality home closer to the beach for the same $$$.
But I guess the "quality" part is subjective.
