Sightseeing

If you need some R & R in a beautiful and quiet setting, this place is for you. If you need time to slow down and enjoy some peace and quiet, this is your place. We call our home "Latitude Adjustment". It's just a little further south than Georgia and Alabama and a little further north than Panama City, but close enough to enjoy all the beaches, shopping, site seeing, etc. If you need some personal time, a day on the lake is like two or three anywhere else. You can fish, canoe, paddle board or row a boat. Our row boat is available for our guests and the paddles are hanging in the Florida Room. Book it for seven days and I guarantee it will feel like a two week vacation, it's that relaxing.

If you like a beautiful float trip, Holmes Creek is the place to go to rent your canoe, kayak, etc. It's just a short 15 to 20 minute drive from the Lake House. Who knows what you'll get to see on this journey.

If you're an animal lover, you may want to put this site on your list of things to see. Our guests that have visited the Wolf Preserve have only great things to say about it.

If you're looking for a quiet beach or if you would like to do some hiking, Camp Helen State Park is a must visit. A short walk to the beach from the parking lot and the hiking is fairly easy and beautiful.

Food scene

Pam and I always like to have lunch or dinner here at least once while we're visiting the Lake House. We really like the shrimp and grits, but everything is good here.

I know you might drive by this place and not think twice about stopping for lunch or dinner, but I'm telling you, you better arrive early, because this is one of the top seafood places that even the locals like.

Right off 79 before you get to Panama City Beach, you'll find this place under the bridge. Getting there you may consider turning around, but that would be a mistake. We met there with friends the first time we tried it and it has now become one of our places to frequent while at the Lake House.

This is a pricey restaurant but well worth a visit. Everything served at The Grand Marlin is excellent. It's some of the best seafood in the area.

This is actually a food truck set at this location. Yes, it's quite a distance from the Lake House, but you'll not find any better smoked ribs, etc. than right there. Pam and I pick up some lunch from Paul Gant's and drive down to the ocean to picnic or tail gate.....according to the weather. It's well worth the drive, plus you get to see some great beachscapes.

Want to shop until you drop? You can beat the shopping, the eclectic atmosphere, the people watching and all the excitement that comes from Pier Park. You can park your car and walk to everything. We try to visit every time we're in Florida.

Grayton Beach is another one of the beautiful beaches of 30A, which is also call "The Emerald Coast". The State Park is a great place to park you car and walk to the beach. Again, it also has hiking trails and overlooks. These beaches are all a little drive from the Lake House but well worth the trip. We pack up and leave early morning and can be back at the Lake House by early afternoon if we choose. We like to hit the beach early, change clothes and go to a nearby restaurant for lunch. It makes for a very nice day.

Sports

If you enjoy golfing, this is a very nice golf course with a very nice team of people caring for it. My son in law and I golfed it this past June 2023 and were surprised at how well they keep it up in spite of the lovely Florida sun.
