The community was master-planned by the St. Joe Company on 256 acres of natural coastal dunes and encompasses four distinct landscape types: Gulf beachfront, the rare Camp Creek coastal dune lake, the Intracoastal Waterway, and protected woodlands. The architectural style -- influenced by Nantucket, Cape Cod, and Martha's Vineyard -- gives WaterSound Beach a timeless, storybook coastal aesthetic unlike anything else in Northwest Florida....
