Ruckel Properties, Inc. opened its doors for business in the summer of 1955, armed with the dream and the commitment to provide the Niceville-Valparaiso twin cities with communities and neighborhoods that would be unequaled in Northwest Florida. Today, over 60 years later, the area abounds with the realization of those dreams. Residential communities such as Rocky Bayou, Fairway Woods, Swift Creek, Parkview Place and Deer Moss Creek® are testaments to the high quality and preservation of nature that makes a Ruckel Properties community a place where families enjoy living for generations.
