Wow! Words can't describe how incredible our family vacation was. And the best part about it all was this beautiful home. It was so perfect. When it rained we didn't even mind because it meant more time in this perfect home.
Our daughter absolutely loved it.
Thank you so much - we will be back!!

Our family of three kids and their spouses as well as four grandchildren take a trip together every summer.
The house, accommodations, atmosphere, and surroundings surpassed our expectations! Every age group had fun and was comfortable
The open concept, the kitchen and the pool were exceptional! Thank you.
We plan to return.
Great Home close to Camp Watercolor
by Betty
5/5
We had 3 families and house was perfect. We had a problem with air conditioner and someone was there within 15 minutes. Close to pond so grandson looks bed fishing there. It is walking distance to Camp Watercolor, which was perfect for 4 and 6 year olds. Only recommendation, since can’t rent additional golf carts, is to have 6 seater.
Beautiful home

Dream Vacation

This was our Dream vacation! We had the best time in this beautiful home. Our little girls especially enjoyed all of the books in the kid's library upstairs! So many lifelong memories were made here in WaterColor this week. From the quiet mornings spent swinging on the front porch swing, to the golden-hour family walks through the gorgeous trails surrounding this home. We couldn't have asked for a better stay.

The home is so warm and inviting. There are multiple places to land, both inside and out. Early coffee and late day drinks make for super time off! The kitchen has EVERYTHING one could wish for. There is close shopping & Restaurants (at assorted price points) and terrific walking trail out the back door. You would love it!!

We recently rented Better By the Beach at 164 Red Cedar Way (10/7-10/14) and wanted to let you know that the house and location within Watercolors were both great. Specifically, the downstairs master suite was great for the mobility challenged grandparents. We also enjoyed the back porch View of Western Lake and the easy access to the trails. David, Emily and Bree were all very helpful and were always available if needed. We look forward to renting again and would rent Better By the Beach again.
