My fingers are getting sore from all of the research I have done ... everyone's great input seems to lead to more and more questions though. So, here is my latest ...
I am disabled and walk with crutches. I am pretty mobile, but obviously stairs are difficult for me ... especially in/out of a pool. I know that WaterSound Beach Club has a "zero entry" pool (like a beach ... no steps).
Are there any other developments NORTH OF 30A that also have zero entry pools? WaterSound, NatureWalk, Cypress Breeze, Grande Pointe, Wild Heron, etc?
Once again, thank you in advance for all of your continued help!

Hi Casey -
While this is not a zero-entry pool, it does have a nice graduated entry with wide steps. It is the WaterColor pool in Phase 3 (which I'm delighted to say is only about 150 yards from the house we're building).

As I mentioned in my pm to you, our daughter has cerebral palsy. We intend to ask WaterColor to install a lift in the pool once we get settled in. They are simple and unobtrusive. We've seen them in many places but not yet in the SoWal area. I think it's about time that developments pay attention to the need for these amenities.
Thanks,
Wayne

Casey,
Wild Heron does. There is a beautiful pool right by the lake, fitness center, and fire pit that is steps away from the circle drive. There also is a full shuttle service to the beach club that will take you right to the front door of the club right on the beach. The beach club is five to seven minutes by shuttle from the gorgeous development. We own on 30-A and in Wild Heron and think Wild Heron offers so many amenities. Although Shark's Tooth golf course is wonderful, many of the people who live there are there because of the beautiful development, not just for golf. It is very quiet because it is not a rental community. It has more of a country club feel with all the great amenities. Anyway, you should probably just see it at this point- WaterColor is wonderful and in the heart of 30-A- but also a rental community with a resort feel. It really depends on what you want. I think you could find a good sale in either place and can't go wrong either way! Julie
