WaterColor Park District - Private beach access & amenities!

Welcome to Forest of Dreams, a beautifully designed retreat in the heart of WaterColor’s sought-after Park District. This home offers the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and charm, with easy access to all that WaterColor and Seaside have to offer. With 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms and a sleeper sofa, the home can sleep up to 12 maximum guests.

Guests enjoy full access to WaterColor’s private beach, pools, and amenities, plus the ideal location: just 0.3 miles to the beach, 0.4 miles to the Beach Club, and a short 5-minute walk (0.25 miles) to Seaside’s vibrant square. Whether you stroll, bike (four adult bikes included), or hop on the free WaterColor trolley (seasonal), everything you need is just steps away. Golf carts can be rented from Electric Cart Company if desired, but definitely not needed due to the perfect location.

The open-concept main level floor plan creates a warm, welcoming space for gathering. Two cozy lounge areas, one for reading, one for relaxing around the TV, are connected by a gourmet kitchen with a breakfast bar for 6. A large dining table for 8 and wet bar make family meals a breeze. Step outside to the screened-in porch overlooking serene views of the preserved Western Lake forest.

Upstairs, natural light pours into all four bedrooms, each with its own private bath:
-Master Suite: King bed, spacious bath with claw-foot tub and walk-in shower, plus a private porch overlooking the forest.
-Second King Suite: Large sun-filled room, can serve as a second master.
-Guest Room: Two full beds, perfect for kids or friends.
-Bunk Room: Four twin bunks, always a favorite for younger guests.

Perfect distance from Seaside. We walked or biked to the market everyday. Easy bike ride to the pools. So much room and multiple places for people to have their own relaxation space as needed was a big plus. Overall, fantastic place and highly recommended.

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.

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!
