Map & Owner's Profile
Valencia - Amber Cove - Walk to Beach - Bright Roomy 3BR-3BA
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Emerald Shores
We love the stretch of beach we're on now...not too crowded, private beach, yet still close to lots of good restaurants and good shopping (Outlet Mall, anyone?)
The Unique Benefits at this House
Close to beach. Enough bathrooms and hot water even for teenagers. Roomy house to spread out in versus cramped condo/townhome.
Owner's Map of Emerald Shores
Hi! Thanks for considering our home for your vacation! We have been coming to the Destin area since our first trip to Grayton Beach in 1982. Our kids grew up building sandcastles, hanging out at the pool, and trying to wreck each other's go-carts at the Track! Now that they're grown, they're still coming back,each bringing their friends here for a week's stay. NOTE GOOGLE MAP IS INACCURATE, the neighborhood DOES have direct walk to beach through Leeward Key parking lot.
