Living in Holiday Shores Estates

Walton County's parcel legal descriptions cite five plats for Holiday Shores Estates: the original plat in Plat Book 3 at page 85, a First Addition in Plat Book 3 at page 91, and Second, Third and Fourth Additions in Plat Book 4 at pages 18, 26 and 27. On the 2025 state tax roll, every parcel in those plats is listed in Miramar Beach, ZIP code 32550. Most of the addresses are on Shore Drive and Forest Shore Drive, with others on North Holiday Road, Walton Way, and Holiday Shores, Walton Shores and Choctaw Shores courts. A county engineering report places both drives north of US 98, with Forest Shore Drive running from the highway to Shore Drive.

Two blocks hold most of the larger lots. The even-numbered Shore Drive addresses from 124 to 490, in Block A of the original plat, and from 510 to 1000, in Block F of the First Addition, are carried on the county parcel records mostly at roughly half an acre to three quarters of an acre, while most other lots in the five plats come to about a quarter to a third of an acre. Houses on the 2025 roll date from 1973 to 2024. The First Addition holds most of the 1970s houses and is the only plat where most houses were built before 1990; each of the other four plats has a single 1970s house among houses mostly built in 1990 or later. Every plat has at least one house built in 2018 or later, and the county parcel records list lots in all five plats as vacant.

The First Addition plat also takes in a one-acre county public park owned by Walton County, at the address the county's facilities directory gives for Haugen Park, 556 Shore Drive. Along Forest Shore Drive and Shore Drive, the county's Holiday Shores Pedestrian and Drainage Improvements project scoped a Phase 1A that included a nutrient separating baffle box at the existing drainage outfall beside 188 Shore Drive. The county's engineering projects page now shows Phases 1A and 1B completed and Phase 2 in design.

Holiday Shores Estates Association, Inc. was filed with the Florida Division of Corporations in 1989 and has been inactive since an administrative dissolution in 2009. The registry does not say what the association governed. For any covenant attached to a given lot, the record to read is that lot's title commitment.

Holiday Shores Estates FAQ

Are the Shore Drive lots in Holiday Shores Estates bigger than the rest?

Along one run of Shore Drive, yes. The county parcel layer carries lots 3 through 20 of Block A in the original plat at about half an acre to two thirds of an acre, and nearly every lot in Block F of the First Addition at about half an acre to three quarters. On the state roll, Block A's addresses run from 124 to 490 Shore Drive and Block F's from 510 to 1000, all even numbers. Most other lots in the five plats, odd-numbered Shore Drive addresses among them, sit between about a quarter and a third of an acre.

How old are the houses in the Holiday Shores Estates First Addition?

Older on the whole than the rest of the subdivision, by the 2025 state tax roll. The First Addition, on Shore Drive from 510 to 1000, holds most of the subdivision's houses built in the 1970s, including the two oldest, from 1973, and it is the only one of the five plats where most houses were built before 1990. It also has houses built in 2018, 2020 and 2023. In the original plat and the Second, Third and Fourth Additions, most houses date from 1990 or later, and each of those plats has one 1970s house.

Is the Holiday Shores Estates Association still active?

Not by the state corporate registry. Holiday Shores Estates Association, Inc. was filed as a Florida not-for-profit corporation on August 16, 1989, with a principal address on Shore Drive in Miramar Beach. Its status reads inactive: the last event on file is an administrative dissolution for annual report, filed September 25, 2009, and the latest annual report listed is for 2008. The entry says nothing about what the association governed or maintained. For any covenant that may bind a particular lot, read that lot's title commitment.

Is Haugen Park part of Holiday Shores Estates?

Its parcel is on the subdivision's plat. The county parcel record describes a one-acre parcel as a county public park on the plat of the Holiday Shores Estates First Addition, with Walton County as owner, and the state roll gives that parcel the address 556 Shore Drive. Walton County's facilities directory lists Haugen Park at 556 Shore Dr in Miramar Beach, among its county parks, with fishing, parking, picnic areas, picnic tables and chairs.

Is there a sidewalk on Forest Shore Drive in Holiday Shores?

The county scoped one. Its February 2024 agenda report describes Phase 1A of the Holiday Shores Pedestrian and Drainage Improvements project as an eight-foot concrete sidewalk in the Forest Shore Drive right-of-way from US 98 to Shore Drive, with the road milled, resurfaced and restriped and with swales, storm drains and sod along it. The county engineering projects page lists Phases 1A and 1B under completed projects, a list it defines as finished construction available for public use, and Phase 2 under design.
