Blue Mountain Beach is a more private and tranquil beach community, with its unconventional name coming from wild blue flowers that adorn the preserved natural dunes in the area. It is ideal for those who desire a more laid-back lifestyle with local social options as well as livelier scenes close by. One attractive feature is the voluntary management association run by the residents with optional fees, which offers more flexibility for homeowners. This neighborhood mainly consists of beach cottages and condominiums, with some extravagant homes right on the coastline. The architectural style is simpler, with the cottages reflecting traditional style, while the more modern estates allude to a Mediterranean style.

As a relaxed community, Blue Mountain Beach has a small collection of local businesses and restaurants for residents to be able to shop, engage in activities, and enjoy an intimate social scene. With so many natural surroundings, Draper Lake and Big Redfish Lake are popular complementary amenities for nature walks and spending time outdoors. The beach access is also convenient for the whole neighborhood, leaving it up to the resident to spend their time relaxing, or diving into the Gulf for some fun.
