So.. how are things looking one week after Dennis?

[pmiller]

Hello everybody. I am new to this forum. How does Seagrove look? I was sent an aerial photo of the Motel and villas where my family always stays and it looked like the bluff is eroded all the way up to the patio doors! Has anybody out there been there the last few days? We have a trip planned for October but that photo scared me.

Thanks for any info.

Hey Buddy....glad you finally found the forum!!! It does not look good for the Villas. I am going to call the Motel today and see what the word is. I think you should still go if you can, in October....I wish I could!!!

Hey, pmiller, I just talked to Debbie at the Villas. She said the E building is closed right now because it is so close to the drop-off. There is no beach access right now either. She said the building itself is fine, and hopefully it should be re-opened by October. The number directly to the Motel is
850-231-1947. You might want to check with them the closer it gets to October! Hope this helps!!!!

Beautiful! This is the Seagrove I remember from previous trips. Does anyone know if the beach access across from Cassine Garden is up?

There is an access open to the east of One Seagrove Place - public access.

Seagrove Beach, Dennis + 2 weeks

Great pic Kurt. Just thought owners and others (renters) planning to come down post Dennis might want to hear what a current renter said about the condition of Seagrove this week. They said that they are very happy about their decision to come down to Seagrove just 2 weeks after a major storm.

Her exact words from the email she sent me were..."there are very few signs that a major hurricane blew through here just a few weeks ago...".

The Eastern Lake access west side of the lake is open with steps down to the sand and the lake channel out to the gulf has been trenched and moved east to allow people access to the gulf (and to allow for backfill/repair for a few houses undermined).

We all know the damage that was caused (see pictures from 2 weeks ago)and this is not to say there wasn't any damage or affects but for renters wondering as to whether to go down for their planned week/stay it might help in the decision.

After alot of hard work and a short period of time, the area seems to be recovering well.

Thanks for the picture Kurt! Dennis knocked out my plans to come down in July so I'm coming down August 12th. This desperate housewife from Kentucky can't wait!!!!
