About this property

WaterColor Park District - Private beach access & amenities!

4 Bedrooms, 4.5 Baths, Sleeps 12

Forest of Dreams includes access to WaterColor’s private beach, pools and amenities. It is located in the heart of WaterColor (Park District) with close access to the Beach Club (0.4 mi), Camp WaterColor, Boat House and the beach (0.3 mi). It is also steps away from the cut-through to Seaside, making it a short walk to the Seaside square in less than 5 minutes (0.25 mi). The home can sleep up to 12. Five bikes are included with the rental. Golf carts can be rented from Electric Cart Company if desired, but definitely not needed due to the perfect location. Free WaterColor trolley available Spring Break-Labor Day with a stop half a block away from the property.

The downstairs open floor plan includes 2 lounging spaces, perfect for the whole family. The front area forms a cozy reading spot and the back surrounds the television. In between is the gourmet kitchen and breakfast bar for 6. The large 8-top dining table and wet bar creates the perfect gathering spot. Off of the main living space is a screened in porch that backs up to Western Lake with peaceful views of the preserved land that surrounds the lake.

Upstairs, you’ll find the 4 bedrooms surrounded with windows letting in natural light. The master bedroom and bathroom face the quiet forest and include a private porch. The bathroom is spacious with a claw-foot tub. Next to the master is the full bedroom with 2 full beds. The bunk room has 4 twin bunks, so much fun for kids. The coastal facing front King room is loaded with sunlight and beautiful views from the windows and can be used as a second master. Private baths are connected to all rooms.

There is also an open office upstairs with French doors that open into a private porch for those that want to stay connected to both family and work.

Throughout the house has rustic restored floors that came from a barn in Georgia.

One of the best attributes of the house is the front porch, which is great for relaxing on the swing and taking in the neighborhood activity.

Great family vacation!

We loved staying at Alexa's house in Watercolor. The location couldn't have been better! It was central to the beach, lake, camp watercolor and Seaside. We walked/biked everywhere! We loved how we could walk to Seaside for dinner so easily. No need to worry about driving and parking. We had issues with two of the bikes and the next morning Alexa had two brand-new bikes delivered. She was fantastic! It was a little chilly our first few nights in town and we wished the house had some extra blankets. But besides that the house was just perfect! We can't wait to come back and stay again soon.

Spring Break 2025

This was a great experience! There were some minor housekeeping items to address upon arrival. But they were all resolved quickly by our host. Our host was very accommodating and helpful. We loved everything about our home. Location was perfect. The openness made it the place to be with our son and his friends. The front and back porches are amazing! I would absolutely stay again. It was awesome!

Ringing in the New Year

Our family spent a wonderful week on 30A after Christmas through the New Year. The house's location was perfect. close to tennis center, Seaside, and the "downtown" Watercolor amenities. The bikes included with rental made Camp Watercolor, Grayton and the beautiful trails accessible. The house has large front and back porches and two gathering areas on main level which made the property perfect for our crowd. Property manager was extremely responsive. Loved our time there. Will definitely return!

Great location!

The house was in the middle of everything, a great location for our stay. We had an issue with the fire alarms in the middle of the night, and the maintenance company was there within 20 minutes of calling and fixed the issue. Highly recommend!

We loved everything about this house, town and beach! The location to the beach/Seaside was perfect. This was our first time in the 30A area and can’t wait to come back! Everything was stunning! Alexa was very helpful and the communication was great. The bikes were a huge hit for our teens, we lived the 2 porches and everything in between! Thank you!!

Perfect House - Perfect Location

This property fit our needs in every way. House was very clean and was just how it was described. We rented a golf cart, but really only used it to go to Publix. Everything else was either an easy walk or quick bike ride away. I had a couple questions about the bikes and the owner immediately texted back. Communication was above average before and during the stay. We will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful stay!

We loved Watercolor and Staying at Forest of Dreams! We had never been to that area before and found it to be an exceptional location. Close to pools, tennis, pickleball and walking paths. Very close (walking distance) to “downtown” Seaside. The house was clean and comfortable and the wristbands were very convenient to pick up. It was a great stay!

Water Color weekend

Alexa, the property manager, was extremely responsive and a great communicator. Having owned to homes in the past in Water Color, it was great visiting the area once again. The home was in very clean condition and is located just a few minutes from shopping, dining and all of the amenities of Water Color, Seaside and County Road 30A. The home has everything one needs for an enjoyable stay!

As advertised, great vacation spot for families

We have stayed in several places on 30A in recent years with our children, and this was far and away the best. Watercolor beach club and camp watercolor access is huge, as is the ability to rent a golf cart. We will be back.

Thanksgiving at the Bech

Our house was perfect for a Thanksgiving holiday. I searched for a place with a big table and a fireplace and a good location to Seaside and Watercolor’s pool and beach. The pools are heated to 83, so we could enjoy swimming. Bikes were fun, and Christmas activities put us in the Christmas spirit. Alexis, the host, was amazing.

Location and quality

You ever not want to leave a good review because you are afraid others will then book your place? This is one of those. The location, the comfort of the house, the amenities…I can’t speak highly enough of them all and also the owner was amazing to work with. Any and everything was answered or told to us on the front end which made it so easy to check in, know where everything was when we got there, and an easy check out. We will be booking this home again.

Awesome rental

This was a perfect rental property. Contact person (Alexa) was super efficient and quick to reply. Location is perfect, place was spotless. Only thing that could have made it better would be if they supplied trash bags/toilet paper and a little detergent. It seems silly to buy that when you don’t need that much for your stay so you basically leave extra. We will definitely return!

What an amazing week. The location of the house made it extremely easy and accessible to Seaside shops and food, and the beach. We never drove anywhere. Walked each day to the beach and had chairs and umbrellas rented ahead of time. We will definitely be coming back. Communication was seamless throughout the week.
