If condos were restaurants, Inspired by Nature at Cassine Gardens would be that quaint favorite place you would only tell best friends about because you wouldn’t want crowds to follow.
Two bedrooms and two full baths upstairs and everything else downstairs; all the basics are covered including several TVs, DVD/VCR/CD player, a sound system, washer and dryer, etc. That’s nice, but you also have the niceties of: adult bicycles, beach chairs, a video and reading library, and fun mosaic art everywhere.
Enter the front door under a magnificent magnolia. You can walk through to the back porch or climb stairs to either of the second story balconies if you’re ready to sit and enjoy the nature sanctuary. You can almost touch the trees within the cypress grove as they whisper more quietly than pines.
Ferns and grapevine almost hide the tiny footbridge, which is part of the nature and fitness trails winding through the established community. Less than a block behind #128 is one of two community pools, and tennis courts.
Nearby, hidden within the cypress groves, is a beautiful stocked lake and several secluded picnic areas. If you’re more the beach type, head out the front door. A nearby narrow path takes you directly across the road to the bright sands and shimmering waters of the Gulf.
The kitchen has clean fresh surfaces and is fully-equipped. The living area and bedrooms are comfy and colorful with tasteful artistic décor throughout. The furniture is funky and casual chic including whitewashed cabinets and tables, overstuffed chairs, sofas, and comforters. Big blue rugs warm up the tile floors.
At Cassine Gardens #128 it’s hard to know if it’s the unique area, quick access to the Gulf, the numerous outdoor activities, or the most unusual creative mix of décor within. You may not be able to put your finger on the answer, but anybody with a speck of fun in them will enjoy trying when they stay at Inspired by Nature in Cassine Gardens.
We also own a home in Cassine that can be rented with our townhome. The VRBO ad number is 223454. Please ask for details. Discounts may apply.

Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 1997
Why the Owner Chose Cassine Gardens
We fell in love with Seagrove Beach, especially Cassine Gardens. Seagrove was laid back and intent on not becoming commercialized like Destin or Panama City. The beaches were also incredible. The sand is powdery white and the water is an incredible emerald color almost year round. That's probably why the Gulf Coast is regularly included in the Beaches of the Year awards. As for Cassine, it offered a unique beach / serene nature setting. The homes and townhomes are spread throughout a cypress grove so the area is quiet and peaceful. We knew after visiting Seagrove that we had found our second home!
The Unique Benefits at this Townhome
Cassine offers a serene nature and beach setting. It also offers two pools, two tennis courts, nature and fitness trails and a small lake with a gazebo and grills. As for our unit, we also offer two free adult bikes so that you can enjoy the nearby bike trails and free beach equipment. On top of this, the unit is only 275 yards from the beach.
This is the most commonly used beach access. It is 275 yards from our property. 30A is a "local" two lane beach road with a 35 mph speed limit so its easy to cross.
There is a second beach access at Seagrove One. It is about 400 yards from our unit.
This is where our second Cassine Gardens property is located. It is a custom built 2,200 sqft beach home. See www.vrbo.com/223454 for more details.
Cassine Gardens backs up to a Florida State Park with miles of beautiful hiking and biking trails, benches, lagoons etc. The entrance to those trails is approximately 150 yards from our townhome.

Thank you for visiting our website.
My wife Anne and our son, Quinton, purchased Inspired by Nature in 1997. My wife and I live in South Bend, IN. Our son lives in Charlotte, NC. We have come to love Seagrove Beach and Cassine Gardens so much that we purchased a second property, a beach home in Cassine in 2005. If you are part of a large group, and need two properties, or our townhome is rented please check out our beach home on VRBO. Our home is property number 223454.

Inspired by Nature is the perfect name for this charming condo. We greatly enjoyed sitting on the upper and lower decks overlooking the beautiful landscape. We took long walks and made so many pictures of the massive and hauntingly beautiful cypress and walking paths. > > We had such a great time and the weather could not have been better. No oil and no seaweed. My husband and I rode the bikes almost every day--something that we had not done for ages. We beached, pooled and played tennis. Not bad for retired folks! The condo exceeded our expectations. The owner thought of everything that one could need for a stress free, laid back week at the beach. I highly recommend staying here and plan to return soon. My only hesitation in writing this review is that others will find it equally inviting and that it will be too much in demand.

Our family had an excellent stay. The place was very clean and the management company (Vicki) who maintained and cleaned the town home did a great job and was always available for questions. This town home was in the perfect location. The pool was very close by and the beach was a very short walk away. Excellent places to eat up and down 30A, excellent pizza at Bruno's, excellent frozen yogurt at Good Apples, etc... Publix is also close by to bring home some groceries. Our 4 kids had a great time and felt right at home. Very comfortable town home. The other great part was walking the trails pretty much that were right in the back yard. The beaches were gorgeous. Would definitely come back and highly recommend.

It was refreshing to find the property and surrounding area exactly as advertised, I would say understated. With a diverse group of five it is sometimes hard to please everyone. All agree Inspired by Nature has everything that is needed for a good vacation.

The week went very well. You have an ideal location -- in the grove of trees and within walking distance of Goatfeathers. We had a lovely time at your place. Many thanks, Stephanie

Our vacation was great. We had a great time, the weather was good and the townhouse was in a great location and was very clean. It worked well because with the baby we didn't have to walk too far to the beach and or the pool. The girls and I had a great time and will definitely keep your place in mind next year. Thanks Mary

We stayed at Inspired By Nature several years ago, and have dreamed of coming back ever since - it was the perfect setting for relaxing. We loved the variety of the wooded setting and then having the beautiful ocean so close by! Maybe this year we'll be lucky enough to stay there again-
Owner response:Thank you for your kind comments. We look forward to having you again! Quinton
