We go there too! I like how you shamelessly plug your advertisers. Shoot me a PM on your rates.


I shamelessly plug stuff I like. I do appreciate sponsors. :D

I think the term "shamelessly plug" stems from plugging your stuff (why not?), or stuff you don't really like or believe in? Or does it mean plugging so often it is spam?

Question: Which is the better value?

They had a PJ's in Celebration, FL at Water Tower Place. Closed in early 2008, I think.

I guess water towers and coffee shops are a bad combo.

Sad to hear about PJ's. I don't think the landscaping has anything to do with Redfish Village retail shops being unsuccessful. Tourists get out and about and drive into new developments. I think its lack of success has more to do with the timing, 2007-present, than anything. Additionally, the unfortunate issues surrounding the development and rumors of lawsuits from purchasers, etc.

I've really enjoyed all of the businesses there and miss them all.

By the way, the natural vegetation which buffers Redfish Village from 30A is required to be preservation by the Walton County Comp Plan, and fortunately, unlike some other developers, they did follow the rules and keep the vegetation as required. I can give you examples of other property developers which decided to violate the County rules, and clear cut the entire property. If anything, we should support the developers who play by the rules.

I am glad that we don't have to look at big parking lots when driving through such a cool place as Blue Mtn Beach.

Redfish Village will survive, and businesses will eventually go in there and I'm sure the residential condos will one day be filled. They, like so many developments, completed the buildout at the peak of the market, so it is no surprise that they have been stuck in this transition period -- most everyone was caught in it. We are seeing lot sales in the development to it's north, which connects into Redfish Village to access the merchants, and that will be a good centralized location in the future, when the commercial and residential units are filled.
