Imagine a community surrounded by 50,000 acres of untouched forest that will never be developed. Thanks to Nokuse Plantation, the largest privately-owned nature preserve in the Southeast, and land owned by the State of Florida, this natural treasure is permanently protected. Families who call NatureView home will always be able to step outside and experience the beauty of nature untouched—a gift that will last for generations.
At The Jay Odom Group, we believe the best communities are those that leave a lasting legacy. With NatureView, we are proud to bring that vision to Freeport at a time of incredible growth and opportunity, just minutes from Highway 30A and South Walton’s world-famous beaches along the Gulf of America.

What makes this community even more special is that the amenities are already open and ready for residents to enjoy from day one. Families can gather at the clubhouse with its coffee bar, ping pong, shuffleboard and inviting spaces. A 24-hour fitness center and yoga studio make wellness part of daily life. The resort-style zero-entry pool is the heart of summer days, while pickleball and basketball courts, garden gazebos, playgrounds, dog parks and peaceful pocket parks bring neighbors together. Miles of nature and fitness trails connect the community, encouraging a lifestyle of health and connection.
Model homes from DSLD Homes and Holiday Builders are now open and available to tour, showcasing the thoughtful designs and craftsmanship that make NatureView truly exceptional.
One of the aspects I am most proud of is our NatureView Hero Homez program. By donating five unique homes designed and built specifically for the needs of military families, first responders and community heroes, we want to give back to those in our community who have sacrificed for us.
NatureView is more than a community. It is a chance to belong to something extraordinary — a place where preservation, purpose and lifestyle come together.
