Emerald Bay
Founded in 2015
Emerald Bay is an exclusive, gated golf course community in Destin/Miramar Beach, Florida (often spanning the Destin area along Choctawhatchee Bay), offering a serene blend of luxury living, waterfront and golf course views, and coastal charm. This upscale neighborhood features beautiful single-family homes with Mediterranean-inspired architecture, spacious lots, mature landscaping, and access to the Emerald Bay Golf Club's sweeping fairways, plus proximity to Choctawhatchee Bay for boating, nearby beaches, dining, shopping, and the vibrant Emerald Coast lifestyle—ideal for golfers, boaters, families, or those seeking a peaceful yet convenient retreat.
As a Huff Homes completion (with Huff contributing custom and new construction homes in the community), Emerald Bay showcases the signature quality craftsmanship, durable builds, and thoughtful design that Huff Development has delivered across Northwest Florida for over 30 years. Huff Homes built several residences here—including award-winning custom homes unveiled in the mid-2010s—featuring elegant finishes, open floor plans (often 3-5+ bedrooms with premium details like high ceilings and coastal elements), and timeless appeal that ensure lasting value and sophistication in this sought-after enclave.
The neighborhood's development spans earlier phases, but Huff Homes' specific involvement and home constructions in Emerald Bay primarily started in the mid-2010s, with notable new builds and unveilings around 2017 (such as custom homes announced that year allowing buyer customizations). This aligns with Huff's contributions to premium Destin-area properties during that period, establishing select Huff-built sections as mature, high-quality additions to the broader Emerald Bay community with strong golf and bay integration.
