Home & Garden

Visiting Eden Gardens State Park is tuning out the rest of the world and tuning in the “Real Florida”.

Trade in your worries and turn on to the splendor of SoWal's great outdoors, with some Florida history to boot. Just a bit north of the beach, Eden Gardens State Park is nestled in the woods of Point Washington, along the shores of Tucker Bayou and the Choctawhatchee Bay. It's the ideal spot to relax and have family fun.

DRIFT 30A Home & Gifts is the kind of place that you walk in, and rather than meandering through the store, you find yourself settling into a comfy spot, envisioning where you might place everything you see surrounding you. 

Owner Karin Anderson just celebrated a successful first year and her showroom has become a ‘must stop’ for those in the know. It's also in a highly visible spot on Hwy 98 in Inlet Beach with lots of visitors popping in.

Most people who visit Alys Beach cluster around the vibrant amphitheater with its lush lawn, fun splash fountain, and dining and shopping at the Alys Shoppe and the ever-popular and ever-delicious George's Restaurant. There are also evening concerts, bike rentals, donuts and a myriad of activities swirling.

This Valentine's weekend get intimate with some of SoWal's finest homes!

Diamond Dunes is an Inlet Beach Beauty which sits very close to the clear blue Gulf in eastern South Walton. It's proud profile is reminiscent of Old Florida, but the large, comfortable 2-story has been completely renovated for modern luxury.

The Viridian is modern luxury right in the heart of South Walton in Seagrove Beach overlooking Scenic 30A and the Gulf of Mexico.

The clubhouse has risen and the pool will be filled soon. The Sanctuary at 331 Apartments are nearly complete,  winding through the shady trees on the edge of Point Washington State Forest just south of the bay on the east side of Hwy 331.

Habitat for Humanity of Walton County helps to create homes, improve lives, and build community bridges.

Through volunteer contributions of time and money, and partnership programs, homes are built for low to moderate income families in the community.

Easily unnoticed on the Western edge of Rosemary Beach, on the south side of Scenic 30A, there is a gated entrance to a lushly-landscaped circle of homes on the Gulf.
