About the host
Hosted by Rich Laws
We live in colorful Colorado, where the mountains are always calling—but we’ve got a serious love for the beach too. Now that we’re empty nesters, we’re making the most of this new season by spending time with our kids and grandkids, traveling with friends, and finding places that feed our sense of wonder (and our love for warm weather!).
WaterColor quickly became one of our favorite destinations. The laid-back vibe, stunning beaches, friendly people, and endless biking trails had us hooked from the start. We love the contrast—mountains at home, beach at heart—and we’re so excited to share this little slice of paradise with you. Whether you’re here to rest, play, or reconnect with the people you love, we hope you’ll feel right at home.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this area the moment we arrived. The beaches are truly stunning, but it’s the thoughtful design of the WaterColor community that sealed it for us—everything is just a bike ride away. Whether we’re walking the nature trails, pedaling to the beach, or catching the sunset at Bud & Alley’s, it all feels easy and effortless here. The people are warm, the hospitality is real, and the whole place just invites you to slow down and enjoy life. We know you’ll love your time on the Emerald Coast as much as we do
What makes this property unique
What do we love most about this house? It’s got that classic beachy charm, an easygoing floor plan, and all the space you need for a family trip, a couple of families together, or a fun friends’ getaway. You're close to everything—the private community beach, cute Seaside, lots pools, miles of trails—but still tucked away from the crowds of 30a. Plus, it backs right up to the national forest, so it feels private, peaceful, and like a true escape.
