Stayed May 29, 2026We had a great time at the Blue Heron! We vacation down in Gulf Shores every year and this was a top house for us. Very clean and easy check-in/check-out. Made some great memories here!

My daughter even wants us to install one of those ice makers in our house lol!!! It is in an amazing location, it wasn't crowded on the beach and we were able to simply relax. It was hard to leave! Thank you for sharing your home with us! We hope to be able to come back! Tabitha Sadler

Stayed Feb 7, 2026We stayed for all of February in Blue Heron. We LOVED loved loved it! It was very clean and well-stocked on arrival. The management company and owners communicated very well--we knew exactly what to expect and even places to try out for food and coffee. We felt like we had the beach to ourselves, and the views from the decks were incredible! We hope to come back next year! Thank you for having us!

Stayed Oct 11, 2025Smooth sailing all the way with this rental! From booking to leaving everything went without trouble. The only thing I can complain about was with the tv being so high in the first floor bedroom I had to get out of bed to change the channel or adjust the volume while holding the remote up in the air

Stayed Aug 15, 2025Overall, we loved the place. It was a great fit for our family and met all of our needs. It was nice to go to the pool after a hot day on the beach. The only thing we really noticed is that the house didn't have any spices at all left over from previous guests. Maybe they are always removed, but in all of our previous rentals there's typically been at least table salt. Also, probably worth mentioning that the dishwasher is not screwed in to the counter and had to be pushed back into place a couple times. Neither of those comments is a negative reflection for the blue heron or our experience there. We really had a great time.

Stayed Aug 24, 2025We loved the property! The location is great, the beach access is wonderful and the pool is an added plus. The only drawback we experienced was a problem with the main level air our last 2 days. Haleigh had someone come right out to look at it but it continued to run hot. Because of this I rated the property 4 stars. Otherwise our stay was wonderful!

Stayed May 24, 2025We had a wonderful time at the blue heron. Plenty of room and great location to the beach. However, there were some things that were disappointing. 1. No extra blankets2. Only one dish towel and kitchen towel3. Internet’s description of bed situation and location of the beds4. No beach chairs/towels5. Bedroom mattresses were horrible in the master and middle bedroom upstairs- like horrible and didn’t sleep well all weekAlthough the above was a disappointment, we still had a great time and would totally come back! The porches were awesome with the Adirondack chairs and table. The doors out each bedroom were a great amenity for each couple. Thanks for the great memories for our family and friends. We hope to come back and enjoy your properties again next year!!

Stayed Dec 31, 1969We were incredibly thankful to get a response and approval to book so quick considering we booked day of arrival (running from a vacation hurricane). Before we came, Rick even offered to put us up in another one of his places inland if we arrived here and the hurricane shifted west. The house was perfect to meet our needs and could have held more people. We loved how the 3 upstairs rooms had their own view/balcony access. Master suite was luxury size lol. Pool was great! Parking was easy. Kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals and had 2 fridges. An exterior elevator would be nice for sending luggage and groceries to the main floor (be prepared to walk up and down a lot of stairs) but that's the price you pay for the VIEW which is perfect!! [Awesome! 😎😎😎 I am so glad I was able to help save your vacay when Helene chased you west. I am sorry you, and the homeowner, were impacted by the hurricane, but am happy I was able to assist you all. I'd be happy to have you all back anytime, and appreciate the super nice review 🤗, and that you loved everything from the kitchen to the decks, and the master suite, and more (and of course the VIEWS, right?! Love sitting on the deck having coffee and my laptop). Thanks again! 🙏]
