Emerald Coast RV Resort - 1 Mile to Beach

Made a short run down Front Beach Road last evening into Panama City Beach and located a Walmart just a couple miles down the road so, restocked on salad, tomatoes and Gatorade in case I head for the beach (which is most likely).  Lots of attractions along the way for the younger crowd and saw lots of young guys and girls shopping at the Walmart and running the streets -- driving their cars around and being crazy (a little).

Did a total walk around the resort this morning and took more pics along the way starting with my site -- which needs a couple more chairs pulled out and maybe the carpet too (until rain arrives Thursday or Friday).  As you can see, all the sites have concrete, grass (with a sprinkler system) and lots of different types of trees and plants with mulch around too.

Path/Road around Turtle Pond

The "Turtle Pond" is located east of the fancy pool with the waterfall and water spouts -- streets or roads are done with pavers and there are about 2 dozen homesites available (model was closed so didn't get pics inside).  Need to get the office to let me in and see what the prices are and what's included.  They have a large, locked and fenced in RV storage area and another separate area for boat storage.

Model - not open

Discovered on a Google map this morning that there is a "Zoo World" just beyond one of the fences surrounding the resort on Front Beach Road -- explains the strange noises I heard last night and what sounded like monkeys or other apes howling this morning when the sun started coming up.  They are quiet now.  Guess they had their bananas already.

Pool by the front offices

Noticed there were about a dozen open sites in the resort as I walked around earlier -- all open and seemingly available.  Time for some breakfast and maybe another trip along Front Beach Road.
