The Blue Heron- Waterfront-Gulf Access-Dock-Pool-Kayaks
Welcome to The Blue Heron—a waterfront escape where Gulf Coast adventure meets pure relaxation. Tie up your own vessel at the 36’ dock (with both permanent and floating sections), or launch one or all 4 of the house’s kayaks to explore hidden canals, or head out on a charter to scallop, fish, and chase dolphins at sunset. Back at the house, gather on the shaded patio for grilling and games, or steal a quiet moment on the wraparound porch, screened verandah, or upper balcony. Inside, sunlight fills three inviting bedrooms and two modern baths, sleeping 8 comfortably—or up to 10 with the sofa bed. Here, every day flows with ease, laughter, and the magic of Florida’s Gulf waters.
Please note: The Blue Heron is not a venue for parties or events of any kind. This is in accordance with county rules and community guidelines
Enjoy the shaded patio with comfy seating, a large dining table, and a gas grill—ideal for laid-back evenings and fun games like Corn Hole and Giant Jenga.
Inside, the home offers a bright, open layout with three cozy bedrooms and two modern bathrooms. With a king, queen, two doubles, and a sofa bed, there's room for everyone. The wraparound porch, screened verandah, and upper balcony offer beautiful spots to unwind and take in the views.
Your privacy is our highest priority. The only exception is our discreet groundskeeper, who may enter the property solely to perform essential maintenance such as lawn care or upkeep. They will never initiate or have direct contact with you, our valued guest.
To ensure the safety of both you and The Blue Heron , we’ve placed a few outdoor security cameras—solely for your protection. Your privacy is sacred to us; we’d never compromise it. By booking, you agree to honor this safeguard and refrain from tampering with any security equipment.
When booking, please remember: please count every guest—including little ones! Children under 2 stay free. We’re excited to welcome you!

We visit Florida every year for baseball spring training. This year was no exception! This property was cleaner than any we have ever rented. Congrats on the best property ! Everything you need is there all you need is to take the time and visit.!
This house is probably the 4th place we have stayed at in the area. Finding a house with ample parking is always an issue and there is plenty here. A lot of homes say that they sleep 10 people but only have room for 2 cars, not including boat trailers. The pool was fantastic after coming in off the water. We had a little trouble at check-in but smooth sailing otherwise. Would definitely recommend!
Our family of 4 spent a week at the Blue Heron in February 2025. We are thrilled with the home and its location which is on the quieter side. The neighborhood was very pleasant, especially considering a number of residents were still dealing with the aftermath of the hurricane. From the Blue Heron, we would have never even known a storm occurred. The home is spacious, clean and well equipped with the necessary items. Further, the communications with the owner/manager was Outstanding. We intend on returning as soon as we can. Booking the home through Lane and Lynne was painless and simple. 5 stars from us.
