A private homeowner's association park, located directly on the water is suitable for fishing and grilling. Both front and back porch have games like the ring toss game and corn hole.

Location Highlights

Single Family Home Sites sit around this Audubon Signature Sanctuary- next to the golf course, tucked into the pines, and next to the Bay. St James Bay is east of the beaches of Cape San Blas and St George Island. The Fountain Room has French doors leading to the lake's gazebo and lawn.

“The resort stands out with its commitment to both golf and natural beauty as an Audubon Signature Sanctuary. Pickleball enthusiasts will appreciate the extensive facilities, complementing the beautifully maintained course. I think that the on-site dining at Crooked River Grill will prove a highlight, rounding out a stay that balances recreation with a relaxed, coastal atmosphere.”
