About this property

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.

When booking, please remember: please count every guest—including little ones! Children under 2 stay free. We’re excited to welcome you!

About the host

Host profile image
I am an avid motorcyclist. I also love boating and I enjoy visiting parks, both large and small, and find peace when I am outside enjoying nature.

Why they chose this property

The Blue Heron is an idyllic retreat, a sanctuary where one can truly immerse into nature's embrace. Having friendly neighbors adds to the sense of community and warmth, enhancing the overall experience of living there. Being able to dock your boat right in your backyard adds a delightful dimension, offering the freedom to set sail and explore the Gulf of Mexico whenever the mood strikes.

The privacy of the backyard provides a peaceful haven where one can unwind, bask in the sun, or seek refuge in the cooling shade, all while being serenaded by the gentle rustle of the salty breezes. It's wonderful to hear from my guests that the Blue Heron embodies not just a physical destination, but a state of mind—a place where relaxation permeates every aspect of life, inviting you to slow down, breathe deeply, and savor the simple joys of existence.






What makes this property unique

What sets The Blue Heron apart is its spirit of true relaxation—a place where the calm of nature blends effortlessly with peace of mind. The salty breeze, the sun’s gentle warmth, and the quiet rhythm of the water create a sanctuary where time slows, and simple pleasures shine. Here, you can step away from the rush of everyday life and reconnect with serenity in its purest form.
