Beautiful beach. There's no doubt about that. But if you have pets, this is probably one of the…read moremost unfriendly pet places I have ever been. I'm not just referring to the beach itself because I get it, not everyone wants dogs on the beach. I'm talking about the town itself. I have not found really any places that are pet friendly. There's a few, but they're so few that it makes it very hard to enjoy your vacation with a pet. I came with my son and his family and I guess I should have looked it up first, but I just didn't expect it to be so widespread.

We spent a day here about mid afternoon and the beach was pretty crowded but overall very clean. The water as fun and produces good waves. They had red flags out for strong currents and we could feel it some in the Water so with us having 4 kids we didn't spend much time and stray to far in the water. We will have a lasting memory of this place as we used this beach as our photo op to announce to our friends and family that we are expecting our 5th child. So that will stick with us and the kids when we look back on this place. Overall fun and memorable day at at the beach here. We found a little parking lot that was easy access and parking. So that was nice and not stressful which is always a plus.

I called and requested that a book be sent over from another Okaloosa library. The staff member said that she would place the request, but never did. I needed the book for a class and ended up having to order it to get in it time. They closed the childrens' section down during the summer to remodel (a poor management decision). I made a special trip to the library with my children and was turned away. They do not offer many summer programs for children at this location. Space is being wasted here. Bring in new talent or reallocated the money going to the FWB location to the Mary Esther, Destin, and Niceville library.

If it isn't in this library the staff finds it at another library and has if for you, if available, in a few days. The wonderful new children's area of the library is just lovely for parents and children. The construction was efficient and well managed and took very little time. I can't wait to take my grandchildren to see the improvements this November! Hope 'Elmo' is available then too!! The Children Section librarian staff goes to great lengths to encourage children to read. The head of this section, Nancy, even dresses up as Elmo for special reading days and the children and parents love it! We love this library!
