Welcome to The Blue Herron — A Comfortable Coastal Retreat for Families & Groups

The Blue Herron is thoughtfully designed to host families and groups with ease, offering plenty of space to gather, relax, and make lasting memories together.

With 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, the home comfortably accommodates a variety of sleeping arrangements:

1 California King bed
2 Queen beds
1 Full bed
4 Twin beds (perfect for kids or additional guests)
2 Full-size futons
1 Convertible chair
1 Pack ’n Play for little ones

A Primary Suite Designed for Families - Our spacious primary suite is a guest favorite—perfect for small families who want to stay together while traveling with a larger group. It features a luxurious Tempur-Pedic California King bed, along with a full-size futon and Pack ’n Play, giving parents and little ones a comfortable, shared space to rest and recharge. A Jack-and-Jill restroom with shower accomodates this space.

Upstairs, you’ll find the twin beds—an ideal setup for children, though adults are welcome as well. For safety and comfort, we recommend that the top bunk is best suited for younger guests. In the space you'll also find one of the futons and the convertible chair. A full size bathroom with bathtub and shower accomodate this space.

The spacious living room features a large L-shaped sofa that can sleep two, and there’s additional room in both the primary bedroom and living area for an air mattress if needed (not provided).

Gather & Dine Together - Enjoy meals and conversation with two indoor dining areas, each seating 6, plus 3 additional seats at the peninsula in the fully stocked kitchen. Whether it’s a quick breakfast or a full family dinner, there’s room for everyone.

Outdoor Living at Its Best - Step outside and unwind in the backyard, complete with:

A dining area that seats 6–8
A cozy sitting area
A firepit with seating for relaxing evenings
A charcoal grill for cookouts

In the front, the charming porch invites you to slow down and enjoy the coastal breeze, featuring a porch swing and two rocking chairs—perfect for morning coffee, winding down at sunset, or watching the fog roll in on a cool February evening.

    Enjoyed our stay at this clean and well equipped house. We needed a place that could accommodate a big group the night before setting sail on a cruise.
