Looking at the plat, my guess is that it is on easement shown in my above pic.
bdub, the subdivision name is Camp Creek Lake, and the plat is found in Plat Book 5, page 12 (Atlas Page 312). You can go to Walton County Clerk of Court's site,
click on "Public Records."
Click on "Official Records."
(accept disclaimer)
Select "Book Page"
Change the Book Type to "Plat"
Type "5" for Book
Type "12" for Page
Click on the first line item, on the hyper-link "1"
BEFORE clicking on View Image, go to upper right corner of page and click on settings. Change "Tiffy" to "pdf" and click "OK" (pop up box will close)
Now, click on "View Image."
The pdf of Camp Creek Lake S/D will load. You can enlarge, move around, save, print, email, etc. just like any other pdf file.

Thanks, but gayboi is right. This weekend, a lady at the Red Bar introduced me to a visitor as the "Mayor of South Walton." I corrected her, noting that I do not wish for that responsibility. I'm just the unofficial greeter.
Update
Hi everyone:
Just an update. On Saturday evening, I successfully used the bridge access to Camp Creek Lake without serious harm, consequence -- or arrest.
There is a little gap between the barricade and the lake just big enough to allow the kayak to slide through. I did not cross the no trespassing line -- just sort of skirted around it near the water's edge.
No one said anything to me -- but one guy walked out to his dock and glared. I waved. He did not wave back.
I exited the same way I entered and walked the kayak back to my house without incident.
I haven't heard anything additional from the county -- but as you will all remember, their first read on the situation was that the barricade was on the long-established easement.
