Waterfront Scallop & Fish Spot! Private Dock + Ice Machine—Pet Friendly Home

Skip the long idle times and the morning ice run. Located just 200 yards from the open Gulf, Heron House is a waterfront paradise designed for those who live for the water. Whether you’re here for the legendary scalloping or world-class fishing, our private dock and 160lb/day commercial ice machine ensure your catch stays fresh and your cooler stays full.

This spacious, pet-friendly 3-bedroom home sits high on pylons, offering shaded parking for up to three vehicles. Inside, you’ll find a bright, single-story layout with a fully equipped kitchen (Keurig + drip coffee included) and a living area built for relaxation. With a King master, Queen guest room, Twin room, and two comfy futons, we comfortably sleep 9.

Use the private ramp just two doors down (boats up to 18’) or the Keaton Beach ramp 1.5 miles away. Tie up at our private dock and clean your catch at the dedicated fish-cleaning station.

Two levels of covered outdoor space overlook the canal. Fire up the charcoal grill and enjoy dinner al fresco at the picnic table under the ceiling fans.

Don’t leave your best friend behind—your pup is welcome to join the adventure!

Location Highlights
~ 200 yards to the Gulf of Mexico.
~ Private canal-front dock.
~ Short trip to Keaton Beach’s pier and pavilion.

Primary renter must be at least 21 years old, sign a rental agreement within 48 hours of booking, be present for the duration of the stay, and agree to a $500 damage deposit hold. No smoking or parties allowed. Up to two dogs are allowed with a pet fee of $150.

Guest boats are welcome. Due to the high/low tides and the natural environment, only boats that can draft in 12" or less can be utilized in our canal. Anyone bringing a boat will need to monitor low/high tide schedules and depending on departure date, should be prepared to take the boat out of the water before a negative tide. During the stay, boats can simply sit on the canal channel during a negative tide. Our boat will likely be on property but that is not included in the stay. Do not swim in the canal. A fishing license is required - $25 for a weekend.

The property is as advertised, with direct access to the Gulf, though the canal will be almost dry at ultra low tide. My kid enjoyed catching blue crabs in the canal when we weren’t busy looking for scallops in the Gulf. The view from the porch is a nice, relaxing way to spend a morning or afternoon.The downsides are so small that they’re barely worth mentioning. The pillows aren’t great and the bedrooms don’t have ceiling fans, so a portable fan is needed to have any air movement. The house does have fans for this purpose, but a stronger one is needed if you like good air movement when you sleep.Overall, it’s a great place and my family would love to stay again.

We enjoyed our stay. The Sunset is breathtaking and it's really neat to watch the tide change in the canal.

Our family loved our stay at Heron House. The house was nice, clean, had amenities we expected to have at hand on property. Neighbors were very nice. Good location for our boat to get in and out of and easy access to the gulf. Owners responded to any concerns or questions quickly. We plan to be back July 2024.
