Overall Rating: 
My family of 4 stayed (2 kids 12y & 14y) at Ken’s Cottage in August. This was our 5th time to Watercolor and always have a great time. Kens cottage was perfect for us, close to the b-ball court, camp watercolor, biking to seaside and the beach club was really easy and enjoyable. Large enough for us to have plenty of space, but still cozy. This is our 3rd visit using 360 Blue and they make everything so easy. Highly recommend using them.
Property Manager Response:
Mark, we are thrilled that you and your family enjoyed another great vacation with us in Watercolor! We agree that the location of "Ken's Cottage" is hard to beat since it is so close to the awesome Camp Watercolor! Perfect for families with kids! We love hearing that 360 Blue is your go-to rental agency and we look forward to helping you plan your next stay with us!
Great cottage. We only had 4 adults but could have easily had 6 adults and 2 or 3 children too. Excellent location; close to everything especially new Camp Pool which we loved. Only problem at all was one bike was missing when we arrived.
Property Manager Response:
We are so glad that you all enjoyed your stay with us at this amazing home in Watercolor! We agree that it is perfect for the entire family. We apologize for the missing bike upon arrival, we will be sure to check with our vendor to see what happened here to ensure it does not happen in the future. Thank you for staying with 360 Blue, we hope to see you again soon!
Nice Location. Camp Watercolor not complete as advertised. Problems with TVs, shower curtains were eventually taken care of.
Property Manager Response:
We are so sorry that the Camp Pool was not what was expected during your stay. We were not made aware by the HOA of what would be lacking after opening until guests started to use the facility. We are glad that the issues within the home were corrected in a timely fashion and we hope to have the pleasure of hosting you for another Watercolor getaway soon!
Watercolor is a lot of fun and we were thrilled to stay here. The unit had bikes (a ton of them) but they are apparently not for guests to use. You really need bikes with this unit - it is pretty far from everything. We rented 6 bikes which made the rear overly crowded with bikes. The kitchen was sparsely equipped and was missing some common items to cook with but we enjoyed it. The beds and bathrooms were great. Would have liked better front porch furniture, was cheaply done and below what we are accustomed to. Had an operable grill which was a plus.
We really enjoyed Ken's Cottage! Beautiful, comfortable and clean. Kitchen was well equipped and plenty of towels and linens for the family. We really appreciated the bikes and easy locks. We road bikes every where and didn't have to worry about parking. Would definitely come back!
