Located in the heart of 30A's beautiful Watercolor Community, Cove Hollow is a beautiful private oasis with 5 spacious bedrooms, designer bathrooms & kitchen, private pool with built-in grill and a guest house to top it all off!

You can rent the main cottage by itself or the main house and guest house together. Inquire for more details. Guest house does not get rented to another guest if you do not rent it with the main house.
***IMPORTANT NOTE: the HOA only allows 12 beach bands TOTAL for the use of both homes, and bands are required for any guest older than 5, so please keep this in mind if you have more than 12 in your group as you will not get more than 12 beach bands.
