The perfect family holiday
We come to Watercolor every Christmas, and have stayed in several homes around the Watercolor community. We now have a favorite, and could not have imagined a better place to spend our holiday. Debbie was the most wonderful person to work with. She made things seamless and communicated so well throughout the months leading gu to our stay. The home was impeccable and stunning-everything was perfect. The kitchen had so many things for me to cook Christmas dinner with. Our family loved watching football and holiday movies in the den. They truly had thought of everything. The beds are lovely to sleep on, laundry is there for you to use, and all furniture is cozy and comfortable. Our children (9 and 12) had their own area on the top floor to play and watch TV and just be kids. There is plenty of space to spread out and not feel cramped. The street is quiet and backyard is so peaceful. We hope to come back to High Cotton for all of our trips in the future.

Just as breathtaking in person!
I've made many trips to 30a over the last few years. While listings often display beautifully curated photos, the trend I've experienced is that the photos don't typically reflect the current state of the property. Not this one. "High Cotton" was just as breathtaking in person as in photos. Not only was it immaculately clean and beautifully decorated, it was tucked away in a quiet corner of Watercolor yet conveniently located. Every detail was considered. Fully stocked with every imaginable tool or appliance, the kitchen was ready for the chef to whip up delectable dinners or for the foodie to store their dinner leftovers and everyone in between. The bathrooms were aptly stocked and the beds were more than comfortable. With our large family gathering, there was still plenty of space for everyone to spread out and nobody to feel claustrophobic. If you live the laptop lifestyle, there's a perfect study where you can get some work done before heading off to the beach. Watercolor is a fantastic neighborhood for exploring on bike and was a highlight for everyone. When I needed to contact the owner, she was quick to communicate, making check-in easy. Considering the desirable location, size of the home, and attentiveness to every detail, "High Cotton" is undeniably our favorite rental we've had in the area and one we would definitely rent again.

A True Gem
My family of 14 (ages 1 to 70) had an ABSOLUTELY AMAZING time at High Cotton, which is a VERY special place. Our gracious host made sure that checking in and out was easy and expeditious. The house exceeded all expectations. Each room was beautifully decorated and spacious. We loved the high ceilings and beautiful artwork. But the best thing were the common areas, including the indoor and outdoor porches which allowed us to spent time together as well as relax alone. The kids bunk bed area on the second floor was the perfect place for a cousin sleep-over. The beautifully designed and well equipped kitchen inspired several (mostly male!) family members to cook gourmet meals and the pool was an absolute lifesaver providing endless entertainment for the little kids (the pool alarm made this very safe). One of us had to work and the library was the perfect place to do this undisturbed. Everybody loved the close proximity to the various pools and beaches, and the restaurants were only a bike ride away! All my children and their spouses agreed that this was the PERFECT vacation for a family like ours, which is generally hard to please! We will definitively be back!

This is a really great rental property. We had four kids 4 and under and it worked beautifully. Loved the location in Watercolor. Can’t say enough about the home itself and the communication from the owner. We will definitely be back!
