The neighborhood was initiated by McGarvey Residential Communities to include some 220 home sites and intended to preserve the natural beauty of it’s surroundings. The community includes a mix of 28 custom luxury oceanfront homes, ocean villas, and estate homes on more than 115 acres.

Various and respected builders were individually selected to maintain the design styles that make this community unique.

Nature trails stroll by lakes and meander thru the pristine and dedicated dune preserve lands never to be touched.
