The Neighborhood:
Location, location, location. Maple House is located in a very safe, family-friendly neighborhood with 15 public schools in the city. The city of Fort Walton Beach has a strong military community with more than 6 military bases, camps and airfields in the immediate area. Six plus beaches. All of your favorite restaurants, is right down the street. Jet Drive Park is 100 meters away from the front door and includes a playground, open field, pickle ball and basketball courts.
- 6min drive (2 mi) to sugar-white sand & downtown Fort Walton Beach
- 6min drive to Eglin AFB & Hurlburt Field — ideal for visiting military families
Getting Around:
Getting around Fort Walton Beach is relatively easy, though public transportation options are somewhat limited. For the most convenience and flexibility, driving is the best way to explore the area. Rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are readily available and offer a reliable way to reach nearby destinations such as Downtown Fort Walton Beach, Okaloosa Island, and the surrounding attractions. Biking is also an option for shorter trips, and many roads in the area are bike-friendly. If you're planning to explore beyond the city or travel on your own schedule, a personal vehicle or rental car is highly recommended.
Public transportation is unavailable in the area. I would suggest renting a vehicle from the airport or searching on Turo, a short-term rental vehicle leasing platform. If you do not have a vehicle, Uber and Lyft will be your best option.
- Driveway parking for 4 vehicles; boat/trailer space

- Jet Park & Bayfront pickleball courts — 4 min
- Wild Willy’s Adventure Zone water-park — 8 min
