I'm still wondering how well this development will do with no direct beach access.
it's really going to be difficult. I spent an afternoon talking to them about the pre sell triplexes on north side of 30A..sell people where VERY uneducated on this project. Triplexes are 18 + months out and that's only 4 buildings.all of this is a long way away.

Mark my word, this has the potential to end poorly for Deer Lake State Park.

If by that you mean people will use it more then yes you are right. But it IS a PUBLIC park.

Deer Lake State Park is the closest Public beach access. It'll be overrun by people who have purchased "beach homes" and would like to use the first part of the title.

They will be running shuttles to Deer Lake and Seacrest.

Still, quite a hike - what I mean is once you park there... I love going to Deer Lake State Park but not for more than a hike and a walk on the beach. It is a wonderful beach though if you want to carry your stuff over the long boardwalk.

I remember when there was no boardwalk. That was no fun hauling everything, but it made it much more private.

Each person who enters Deer Lake has to pay the state park entrance fee. They will go to a free access.

Prominence is no different than the hundreds of developments that will be built in coming years with no direct beach access. There will be thousands and thousands of homes built in Walton county that use state parks and public accesses. Look at Naturewalk - same thing except Prominence will have public space, shops, and restaurants. It'll be easier to bike to the beach also. The downside is lots will be smaller and less private.

While Seacrest has public accesses there are none with parking (unless they plan to use the parking lots of the condos adjoining) or facilities. This is not a good situation for families with kids. Anyone knw what their intended price points are?

Compared to what? Watersound Beach but not at all comparable. More like Naturewalk or Chateau 30a.
