Nestled among tall pines near Camp WaterColor, this house is a natural fit for groups wanting easy access to everything Scenic Highway 30A has to offer. A six-passenger low-speed vehicle and four adult bikes come included, so the beach, WaterColor's pools and trails, and the shops and restaurants of nearby Seaside are all within comfortable reach from the door. Covered porches with outdoor dining and a screened porch give the group plenty of space to gather outside, while the private carriage house adds a welcome layer of flexibility for families traveling together.

Home truths
The standalone carriage house sleeps four guests – two in the king-size bed and two on the sleeper sofa. It also has its own bathroom and living area.
Your host asks that all guests aged five and older be counted in the adult guest total to receive wristbands for the community pools and amenities – this home is allotted twelve wristbands, so it's worth factoring in when planning your group.
You're steps from Camp WaterColor but a short bike ride from the beach itself – the included golf cart and bikes make that an easy trip.
There's free parking for up to four cars on the driveway.
The lead guest must be at least 25 years old.
