With no HOA fees, there is no hassle! Blue Gulf Resort has easy access to the beach just over 1/2 a mile away. The nearest public access is at the south end of Highway 83 with parking and restrooms but there is also an additional access across the street behind Redfish Circle next to The Inn at Blue Mountain Beach that Blue Gulf Resort has an easement to. Blue Mountain Beach is the highest elevation of Florida's Gulf Coast lending incredible views and beautiful natural dunes and wild flowers.
