Draper Lake Coastal Village

A private gated community in Blue Mountain Beach, uniquely positioned between Draper Lake and the beach along 30A.

Welcome to Draper Lake Coastal Village

Draper Lake Coastal Village is a private gated community uniquely positioned between one of Walton County's rare coastal dune Lakes, Draper Lake, and the white sandy beach along 30A in Blue Mountain Beach. It draws inspiration from the Great Camps of the Adirondacks, Lake Champlain, and similar lakeside retreats from the turn of the century with architectural character you would expect at any high-end mountain resort. It's a refuge for those who desire a profound link with nature, embraced by lush woodlands and an array of thriving wildlife.
