A note from your hosts

About Us

Melissa and Ben Asbury have been updating interiors and renovating properties since 2016. Our goal is for you to experience a moment in our home that inspires you to take a design idea back home with you. Not physically, just mentally and emotionally.

In these pages and in this home, we hope you'll uncover the same beauty we see. This community offers the perfect blend of small town southern charm with access to everything you need to make unforgettable memories with family and friends.

We have three girls and a little boy, so we know this is the perfect place to vacation with family. Ben is a firefighter and handy in all things, including all the trim carpentry on the walls. Melissa's love is found in family, creating beautiful spaces, and sharing this home so you can carry the experience with you. We're so glad you're here. Let us know how we can make you feel right at home.

Before you drive

LSV Safety First

Our six-seater golf cart is a Low Speed Vehicle (LSV), and your safety is our number one goal. A few simple guidelines keep every ride easy, fun, and worry-free.

Before You Drive

  • All LSV drivers must be 25 years of age or older.
  • Email a copy of each driver's license to Melissa@thebuyinghouse.com prior to your arrival.
  • Sign the LSV lease agreement through DocuSign.
  • Required before you driveEach driver must watch the LSV safety video and share the code word with Melissa, confirming they understand all rules and regulations for operating the vehicle.

Keep It Charged

  • Please charge the LSV fully before operating it each day.
  • Planning a trip to Seaside? A full battery is a must — once the charge drops to 30%, it declines rapidly.
  • If the LSV runs out of power, towing is the responsibility of the guest and typically ranges from $200 to $250 per tow.

Where the LSV Shines

  • The two heated swimming pools
  • The Big Chill
  • Deer Lake State Park
  • Public beach access points with paved parking
  • Seaside (arrive with a full battery)

Where LSVs Aren't Allowed

  • Parking along 30A — Walton County loves to ticket!
  • Alys Beach
  • Rosemary Beach
  • These beach towns have strict regulations, with security actively monitoring both areas — please help us keep access easy for everyone by respecting their boundaries.

Find your perfect stretch of sand

Beach Access

Wooden boardwalk through Deer Lake State Park
The quarter-mile boardwalkThrough the pines at Deer Lake — and straight onto the sand.
01

Walton Dunes Beach Access

A 10 minute golf cart ride west on 30A. Tucked in a residential area with a public lot about 100 yards from the entry. No boardwalk or steps, so you can walk right onto the sand. Great for dropping off passengers and gear, but don't leave the cart unattended since parking officers ticket often. The lot is limited, so arrive early. Plenty of bike racks.

02

Deer Lake State Park Closest!

Under a 5 minute golf cart or bike ride west on 30A. Parking is $3 per day — cash only, paid daily for beach access. Clean restrooms, picnic tables, and dining pavilions with charcoal grills. The boardwalk is about a quarter mile long.

Get Directions
03

Gulf Lakes Public Beach Access

Best by bike, a 7 minute ride east on the pedestrian path on the south side of 30A. No golf cart parking on the south shoulder near the access, all the way to Camp Creek Lake.

04

Seacrest Drive Beach Access

Just past Gulf Lakes, with north side 30A shoulder parking closer to the entry. Use the nearby crosswalk to cross 30A directly to the access.
