Spend the weekend falling in love with some of South Walton's most adorable, stunning, artistic and unique homes from beach to bay on Feb 18 and 19, 2017. Every year around Valentine's Day, SoWal lovers look forward to the Valentine Tour of Homes weekend.

For the Health of It has been in business for 22 years in Blue Mountain Beach. That’s long enough to see organic babies grow into organic kids into organic teens into healthy adults.

After all this time, the good folks at the health food store / nutritional emporium / juice & smoothie bar still manage to keep things fresh. Now they’re stocking items from the largest provider of organic produce in the Southeast to offer loyal customers clean food at conventional prices.

Beau Interiors embodies a peaceful lifestyle. Whether you’re browsing for gifts, designing a home, or reading a faith based book in the beautiful surroundings, an old adage holds true. Owner Margie Perry creates an environment that leaves you feeling too blessed to be stressed.  

Behind the gate and along a winding lane along a coastal dune lake off Scenic 30A and surrounded by a trifecta of nature’s bounty sits Bannerman Estates. The community of luxury homes is flanked by Little Redfish Lake, Grayton Beach State Park and the Gulf of Mexico - an unparalleled location with mesmerizing views.

Risa’s Interiors has been creating dream homes on the Emerald Coast for more than 30 years. This past June, owner Risa Priestly decided to move her shop from a 3,000 sq. ft. cottage to a 12,000 sq. ft. Mediterranean-inspired showplace. The move created a huge demand for Risa’s remodeling and design services. We managed to catch up with one of the hardest working women in business, and she filled us in on how far she’s come, what keeps her grounded, and what she’s looking forward to next.

Valentine’s weekend typically means romantic dinners and flowers for most, but for South Walton residents and visitors alike, it signals the highly anticipated annual Valentine Tour of Homes presented by the Cultural Arts Alliance (CAA) of Walton County. The tour is known for showcasing stunning interiors, architecturally acclaimed homes and picturesque settings bringing inspiration to tour goers’ winter weekend at the beach.
