270 S Empire Road

Tucked away on more than six acres of land and water, this place is the kind of camp you buy when you want space, silence, and the freedom to walk outside and only hear the wind and the wildlife. The whole thing is built like a tank with eighty-foot structural steel pilings filled with concrete and a metal roof that basically laughs at hurricanes, which is why it stood strong through Katrina. You’ve got a four-bed, three-bath main camp up top and a separate one-bed, one-bath unit below, each with their own laundry so everyone’s got room to spread out and do their thing. Step out onto the huge porches and balconies and you get these wide-open views of the marsh wildlife and the Gulf, plus you can watch boats slide in and out of the protected canal like your own personal nature channel. If you’re the kind of person who wants privacy, big water, and a camp that’ll outlast all of us, this is the spot.
