The Best Cheese in Gulf Shores!!!!

Ok, so this is a little different as far as Blogs go especially those about the beach. I wanted to tell you about the best cheese and Cheesecake in Gulf Shores, so you won't miss out while you are here. Let's start with the cheese!!!!
You wouldn't think of Gulf Shores, or even Alabama when you think of a Dairy food. We have some of the best Cheese ever tasted. It is made by Sweet Home Farm, that is located in Elberta it is about 40 minutes from Sunset Properties. The fresh cheese created by the owner/ operators of this family run business is the stuff of dreams. You have cheese that ranges from sweet and creamy desert like "Cheese Fudge" to The spicy Italian Pepato Asigo and all different flavors in between. They are all our favorites, be sure to take a little detour, or take a short day trip over Friday or Saturday from 10 to 5. The folks at sweet home farm and there AMAZING CHEESE is one of those hidden stops in the Gulf Shores area that you don't need to miss. For more information and directions to the farm stop by the Sunset Properties office while you are here and we will be happy to get you the information you need.

Now on to, cheesecake!!!!YUMMmmmmmm!!! Ok there are two place of note in the Gulf Shores area. The first is the Origianl Oyster House. Yes they specialize in seafood and always do a great job, but beware of the long wait because everyone wants to go have dinner there. They also make an out of this world Praline cheesecake in house. Even if you don't want to wait in the line for dinner, which is worth the wait. Grab a piece of cheesecake to go and take to the beach and enjoy the sunset or the moon rise. You won't regret it.

Finally, last but most certainly not least is Hope's Cheesecake. Hope's has cheese cakes of all different flavors and even sell by the slice. They have seasonal specialities and a flavor for every member of you family. Instead of that stop for ice cream while you are out playing at the amusement parks swing by Hopes for sweet creamy goodness in the form of Cheesecake!!! Let us know your favorite!!!
