Watersound Beach/Location/Amenities:
Nestled directly on the Gulf of Mexico between Seaside and Rosemary Beach in The Beaches of South Walton, located on Florida’s panhandle, Founder's Lane offers an exceptionally peaceful WaterSound vacation in casually luxurious Coastal Living style.
WaterSound Beach, a decidedly upscale new community, is most famous for its mile long stretch of sugar- white beach hugged by magnificent century old sand dunes. Boardwalks meander throughout the 256 acre property passing a rare coastal dune lake, lily ponds and fabulous privately owned beach homes and townhouses.
WaterSound Beach offers three shared heated pools, outdoor fireplace, an adult 18 hole ‘Puttering Park’, a ‘Yacht Pond’, the DuneSider Grill serving lunch poolside in the summer season, a cafe and biking and kayaking opportunities. And fulfilling your need for quiet time, the soothing solitude of the breathtaking beach offers everything needed for an unforgettable holiday.
While centrally located among the charming beach towns that Coastal Living Magazine often profiles, known as The Beaches of South Walton, and convenient to the unique shops, restaurants and nightlife the area offers, WaterSound Beach is a private, gated neighborhood. You’ll appreciate coming home to secure, peaceful privacy on the beach.
Truly a home and a community to be remembered....
