We enjoyed our stay and this house is our favorite out of all the houses we have rented through the years. But, would you please consider new lounge/recliners? The ones at the house are difficult to work and uncomfortable. Thx

Fantastic Fourth with Family and Friends

We stayed at the Blue Heron with a few families and their kids to celebrate my late dad’s birthday. Each family was able to have their own space, and the back patio was perfect for the babies to have a kiddie pool, and the lake was perfect for the older kids to swim. We loved the lily pad, and yard for family relay races. Would love to come back to the Blue Heron!
