IMO it wasn't the fact that they were limiting their access use, it was that they were bragging about how many folks they'd turned away in print.
Whats wrong with Rosemary limiting the use of their access? Not the beach, but the access...
Sorry, I don't have a link. I haven't looked at the Rosemary web site to see if it's there. I saw it in the first edition of the Rosemary news paper, like the Seaside Times. I'd imagine you could pick one up at one of the merchants in Rosemary.
Where is the public access in Rosemary Beach please? How about Alys please? How did the public access these beaches before they were developed? Is this like attempting to 'privatize' by limiting access? If there is no public access it seems like it. Please correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think it takes a rocket scientist to figure out what's happening. I'm sure promising buyers 'private' beaches would help sales to a lot to certain people who like to try and 'own' exclusive beaches. :funn: Whatever.
Rosemary and Alys are private resorts and have no obligation to provide public access to the beach from within their boundaries. Note that I am not talking about the beach, just access points. I don't think Alys or Rosemary have a problem with people patronizing their shops and then using the access in a reasonable manner. I am sure there have been episodes of folks driving in from cheapie accomodations and parking in Rosemary and freeloading, and that isn't right!
You can always spot those folks.... Cousin Eddie sticks out like a sore thumb at Alys Beach doesn't he? Hope he doesn't try and empty the crapper into the pretty street drains....
The kids are all jacked-up on Mountain Dew and loot the candy at Fonville:shock:
