The development

The Desperado is the for-sale residential component of Waco Surf, the PerfectSwell pool in central Texas that became famous as the site of Kelly Slater's first public artificial-barrel sessions. The concept pairs homes within walking distance of the lagoon with the existing public surf facility, making it one of the first true surf-anchored residential offerings in the United States.
