Gulf Shores Neighborhoods We Serve
Gulf Shores homes face salt air, humidity and hurricane-season wind. We build FORTIFIED decks, pergolas, pavilions and patio covers there using materials and connections chosen for the coast.
- Craft Farms: a master-planned golf community around two Arnold Palmer-designed courses, with brick, stucco and coastal-traditional homes. Screened porches and pergolas facing the course or lakes are a common upgrade.
- The Peninsula: a gated community of roughly 800 acres off Fort Morgan Road, about half of it nature preserve, with a 27-hole golf course and frontage on Bon Secour Bay. Custom homes here call for custom outdoor spaces that meet community standards and stand up to bay winds.
