About The Retreat Ninety home-sites in this gated, rental restricted community with over 3,000 feet of Gulf frontage. This neighborhood is unlike any other, one of the first developments designed by St. Joe. The Retreat is secluded and so much of the natural environment has been preserved allowing quality versus quantity. A long winding drive leads into this pristine development and is truly spectacular at night with the lighting that was thoughtfully placed in the treetops, very calming and serene. The Gulf front beach club is one to behold and has one of the prettiest negative edge pools all along Scenic Hwy 30-A. Residents also enjoy Draper lake, an eleven acre coastal dune lake, located on the West end of the neighborhood. Enjoy the picnic pavilion and floating dock. Here in this tucked away oasis, you get the best of both worlds, gulf and lake on the south side of Scenic 30-A. To visit The Retreat Lifestyle Photo Gallery, click here.
