Built on 32 environmentally sensitive acres next to a bird sanctuary, Sutherland Crossing is, while not located on the beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, bordered by Crystal Lake on one side, Sutherland Bayou on another, and St. Joseph Sound on a third. Fishing can be enjoyed on the resort's 580-foot dock. You'll also find tennis, basketball, miniature golf, and bicycling on site. Golf is only four miles away. Swimmers and sunbathers will enjoy the on-site outdoor pool and whirlpool. Both Tampa and St. Petersburg are short drives away (35 minutes).
