つま先の砂-波を聞き、海辺のコテージから海を眺める

Hi, we are Kevin & Stacy, owners of Toes in the Sand and part-time residents. We have been vacationing along 30-A since the 1980s. We enjoy spending time at our beach home with our friends and family and love the quaint, white-picket fenced Summer's Edge neighborhood.

We hope you enjoy Toes in the Sand as much as we do. Come on down and visit and enjoy a truly special vacation.

LOCATION, PRIVACY, BEACH, LAKE - Prestigious Summer's Edge is a private, (Southern Living) award-winning, Gulf-front community with luxurious vacation homes similar to nearby Seaside, Watercolor, WaterSound, and Rosemary Beach... except we are closer to the beach and adjacent to beautiful Eastern Lake, a rare coastal dune lake as well as bird and wildlife sanctuary. Summer's Edge is a quiet, family-oriented community within walking distance to some of the best restaurants along 30A, shopping, the beach, and bike trails.

BEST OF BOTH WORLDS (Beach & Lake) Easy beach access is provided via the neighborhood's wooden boardwalk. Seagrove has one of the finest sugar white sand beaches you will see and is renowned for its natural scenic beauty and turquoise waters.

Eastern Lake, a coastal dune lake and bird & wildlife sanctuary is located just a few blocks away. You will find public access where kids can play and all can enjoy paddle boarding, kayaking, and fishing.

A wide tree-lined street, private beach access, two pools (the closest one is seasonally heated), and a privacy gate combine to make Summer's Edge the perfect location. Toes in the Sand offers a private, fenced/gated backyard with stone patio, a natural gas grill, outdoor shower, complimentary beach equipment; a tower to watch the sunsets; large porches to accommodate large families; and a well-equipped house.

South Walton is a mix of sophisticated style and Old Florida charm giving it a unique vibe. Discover local artists, quaint beach shops and boutiques. There is plenty to do and we are conveniently located to everything. If you seek a relaxing getaway then the place to be is South Walton, even better is south of 30-A (the beach side) and the very best is at Summer's Edge. Why choose Toes in the Sand? Simple. It offers the best value in the local area. Check out our testimonials for yourself. We invite you to come down and put your 'Toes in the Sand.' You'll be glad you did.

Watch sunsets from the 'Tower,' read or nap in a hammock to a gentle gulf breeze; a short, 3-minute stroll to the private beach (about 250 yards) via the neighborhood walkway (no need to cross the highway). Ride bikes along the 18+ miles of bike trails (located outside our neighborhood gate) to Eastern Lake, Deer Lake Park or to Seaside or the Big Chill. On Saturdays Seaside hosts a Farmers Market offering fresh local produce, dairy products, and baked goods. Rosemary Beach has a farmers market on Sundays. Swimming in the heated pool (500' away) in early spring and late fall or in the non-heated, infinity pool mid-summer. Cooking and eating in with family or going out to visit a variety of award-winning restaurants. The ice cream truck visits daily with ice cream treats for the kids. No need to worry about traffic or the kids in this gated, upscale, private community. There are numerous year-round events nearby for all ages.
We are located across the street from Greenway Station with restaurants and shopping. More excellent award-winning restaurants are nearby including Cafe 30A (check out their early bird BOGO), Bud & Alley's, and Red Bar. Or if you want to grill/cook your own seafood, both GoatFeathers and Buddy's Seafood markets are within walking/biking distance.

South Walton is an ecological paradise with more than 40% (56,000 acres) of the area preserved state land, providing many natural attractions. There are miles of paved trails that are ideal for biking, hiking, and jogging and the State Parks, including Point Washington State Forest, also have trails for off-road biking. Fresh and salt water lakes, Choctawhatchee bay and the Gulf of Mexico provide many waterfront miles for swimming, fishing, kayaking, YOLO boarding, and other recreational past-times.

South Walton is also home to the largest concentration of rare coastal dune lakes in the world. Similar eco-systems can only be found in Madagascar, Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific NW.
