Drat! I hate jellyfish! I got wrapped a couple years ago and still have the scars! We'll be on the lookout!

Thanks to everyone for the info on resturants.
I wish the best for everyone who owns property (or just enjoys it).
May you all rebuild safely and never hit your thumb with the hammer!

I'd love any specific info on the gated Seashore Circle houses in Seagrove...and the walkover there. Admittedly, I am not as familiar with that side of Seagrove as the west side, so share as many details as you can. We seem to have a 'thing' for having Seagrove trips booked for the weeks right after hurricanes. Was booked on San Juan Avenue for the week following Ivan--obviously, we didn't make it down for that one. Luckily, we'd been in May 2004, though. And, we did have an idealic week on Hickory Street this May as well to make up for that missed trip. But, what do you think about us on Seashore Circle for a week starting the 16th? We love Seagrove and this was our opportunity to show it off to my in-laws' extended family...

Thank you for any input!

We are the owners of one side of one of the duplexes on San Roy. Seagrove Duplex 6. We are going down from Columbus in just a few minutes. We have reports from our neighbors in the Duplex 3 that their place and ours appears to be okay. Hopefully, we won't go in and stumble upon roof damage and leaks like we had from Ivan. We also have a report from our neighbor next to us at Paradise Point that they look okay too. Their other property that used to be called Hinson House next to the Dunes of Seagrove is also okay.

I've been touring today looking at specific properties and communities for my real estate customers. Here's what I saw:

Blue Mountain - Brickyard: great shape. no damage. doesn't appear to be any water damage at Porpoise and Flounder. Lots of leaves and other yard type debris.

Blue Mountain - Grande Beach: walkover is gone. houses appear fine except the one that is getting new stucco. From the walkover, a few properties to the east (between the public access and Grande Beach) a house or condo was perilously close and over the bluff. This was yesterday about 5 (during the storm), so it could be worse now.

Blue Mountain - Public access: walkover is gone. flagpole is gone. bluffs and cliffs a shear wall.

Grayton Beach - Beach: Western Lake has changed course and washed out the new beach walkway closer to the beach. It is flowing out to the gulf, but is still high. Dune lost on the park side of the lake. Westernmost home in a precarious position - porch is suspended way above the beach with no support. Sand is dirty. Broken beach tent remains on the beach too.

Grayton Beach - Homes: Cottage Street flooded and I suspect that most of the homes will have water damage. Conch Out lost a bit of siding but looks to be in overall good shape.

Grayton Beach - Other: Western Lake dock is gone. Huge pile of debris in front of the Casa. Red Bar appears undamaged.

Lakeplace: Electricity stayed on; cable went out last night and came back on a few hours ago. Dock is gone. A gazillion pieces of walkover, dock, pavilion, etc. in the northwest part of the lake. Home that is getting new stucco appears to have gotten wet. Another home had roof damage. All others appear fine.

Seaside: Same story with walkovers and loss of beach.

Seacrest North: House on Flip Flop Lane looked fine. All other homes around there looked good too.

Village of South Walton: Also looked good.

Rosemary Beach: Saw no problems with any specific houses - some were boarded, some not. I looked specifically at a few south of 30A, Round Rd, Rosemary and Abaco and they all looked fine. Couldn't get to the beach access to look at the beach. I imagine that it is the same story again with walkovers and loss of beach. Public areas looked great and they had a slew of folks working and cleaning this morning.

Inlet Beach: I understand that several homes were lost on the east section. At the Orange Street access, it was not nearly as damaged as the others. The flagpole was still standing! Condos at Inlet Dunes are fine and the pool is probably clean by now. Beach got washed away, but some dunes remain.

Hope that helps some of you -

Best -

Thanks Sunshine! Did you happen to notice the condition of the homes just down from the PB access in BMB? There's been reports that two of the home have critical damage to their foundations with two more tettering on the edge.

Management at High Pointe has posted an update on our website:

The entire High Pointe property came through Dennis in good condition with the usual hurricaine cleanup that is required. All of the beach walkovers on this entire section of the beach were a total loss on all properties up and down the beach on Hwy 30A including the walkover at High Pointe. The berm lost several feet of dirt but the good news is that the beach is looking much better with much of the black peat covered with sand now. Other than the beach walkover, High Pointe should be back to normal in a few days.

Sunshine - Thanks for the "skinny" on the Cottage Street Homes - I am in contact with the owners of Four Fish/Gulfview/Gulfwinds - Please let us know if you have any additional info regarding possible damage.

Great Job once again Kurt on the boards - Good luck to everyone and hope to see you at the Red Bar in August!

[DestinSnowBird]

Can someone please tell me how Destin's Scenic Route 98 is. I'm particularly interested in Gulfview Condo's. Thanks everyone and thanks again Kurt.

Oops - I left Watersound out of the report. It looks great. My customers in there all own vacant lots so I didn't explore it as extensively as some other areas, but it appears that the dunes are in good shape (at least from the neighborhood side) and that you can actually get to the beach. Some of the viewing towers are still standing as well.
