About the host
Hosted by Vacafund Front Desk
Over the last several years we have worked diligently to perfect the experience of short term vacation rentals for our guests. The reality is that not all vacation homes are created equal and not all management of these homes are handled the same way. There are many properties out there for you to choose from and we are honored you have browsed one of our locations. Our #1 goal is to make our guests want to return for another vacation and leave them feeling satisfied they had an amazing and memorable experience. I want you to know that my team and I are at your service and strive to give you an unforgettable vacation stay! Even though personally I may be afar I have an incredible and experienced team of several managers just moments away. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us about anything at all (even special requests, reservations or pets) and we will be there to assist in anyway possible.
Why they chose this property
Blue Heron is a perfect family or larger group experience to get away from it all. The property is located right next to Verona Beach State Park, seconds from the shores of Oneida Lake and minutes from downtown Sylvan Beach. This property exceeds expectations in that it was recently remodeled top to bottom less than 2 years ago with all new furniture, appliances, beds, linens and outdoor lighted area with new upgrades implemented frequently. The newly installed fire-pit with 4 Adirondack chairs is a major upgrade for you and your guests to enjoy the beautiful yard!!
What makes this property unique
Blue Heron was our first property in the area and we have made sure it will not disappoint for all future guests. We have made several changes to the inside and outside to make the home unforgettable. This property is large and will accommodate families of all sizes. The sleeping arrangements are comfortable with several different options on both the first and second floor for you to choose from. The property feels very homey once you step in the front door and we hope you have the chance to experience it for yourself! Please let us know if you have any questions regarding Blue Heron and we look forward to hosting you soon!
