When we travel as a family, we’ve discovered that vacation rentals are a game changer. There’s something special about having a home away from home—plenty of room to spread out and unique touches like cozy fireplaces and even golf carts for easy beach access. One of my favorite things is waking up to the smell of coffee brewing in a full kitchen, perfect for those lazy mornings when we want to linger over breakfast or have a casual dinner in. Plus, vacation rentals often provide a more budget-friendly option, especially in popular beach spots like Watercolor, FL—a charming gem nestled along stunning 30A. Today, I am excited to share our vacation rental, Cove Hollow House, located in charming Watercolor, Florida!

Special Amenities
The house is on a quiet street in the beautiful Lake Community of Watercolor, just a short walk from the Frog Pool. The rental includes a six-seater golf cart and four beach cruiser bikes to make it easier to get around. Our guests also have access to several pools, including the Watercolor Beach Club and Camp Watercolor. Both pools provide towel service, and the Watercolor Beach Club has direct access to the beach. The Beach Club also offers beach chairs and umbrellas set up daily. After a long day at the pool or beach, we enjoy watching the sunsets over Western Lake, just a short walk from our house.
Restaurants Nearby
We often take advantage of the happy hour specials at the Wine Bar, where a carafe of wine costs the same as a glass. We can easily walk over the Western Lake bridge to get here or take a short golf cart ride. If we are looking for a meal with a view, we love to go to FOOW and sit on the porch. Our kids love getting sweet treats at The Candy Bar, which is close to both of these dining options. We also will walk, bike, or take the golf cart into Seaside for lunch or dinner. Some of our favorites in Seaside include Great Southern, Bud and Alleys, The Pizza Bar, and Pickles.
