We had a wonderful stay, it was beautiful weather all week and it only rained one afternoon. We took full advantage of the water park, spending about seven hours a day there. My daughter enjoyed it thoroughly.

Excellent quick getaway

The Blue Heron was exactly as described on the listing. Was stocked with all the things we needed to make our short stay perfect. From the moment we booked, Zane and Terry communicated all crucial info. We had trouble accessing the lock box for the golf cart however Terry came and dropped off the keys so we could enjoy the cart. Overall excellent little house

Relaxing Thanksgiving

We were very pleased with our stay. After selling our RV in March, we were leery about renting a property. We have always camped in our RV. We missed Ocean Lakes so much that we thought we would give a rental a chance. Absolutely no regrets. Highly recommend the Blue Herring!

Needs Updating

The property really needs an update BAD! It was relatively clean, but old appliances bathroom is not updated at all. I think too much money for older place. Needs a facelift and a good thorough cleaning. Owners were super friendly and accommodating but need to invest some money in the place.

Late summer getaway

We enjoyed our stay! The house was just as listed, and our fur baby loved it too! One night, the air conditioning stopped working, and it got very hot, but they had someone over quickly the next day to fix it, which we appreciated. The only thing we noticed was that the master bed mattress needs to be replaced. It’s quite worn, and you end up rolling into the middle because of the sagging. Other than that, everything was great!

Amazing Stay!

We absolutely loved the place! The description was exactly correct. The golf cart was not included and it is in the description with a separate charge. As soon as we got there we sent the information and money. Zane got back to us in less than 5 min for the golf cart rental. We did have issues with the golf cart with the front axles. We messaged Terry and Zane and they immediately came with a game plan to fix it. We took the golf cart to the Golf cart shop and they refunded us for a day. The golf cart was fixed in 4-5 hours and he delivered it so that we didnt have to leave the beach. The house was clean, nice location, and checked all of our boxes! We will definitely be back! Thank you so much for all the accommodations!

The house and hosts are great. The house was very clean and the pictures are accurate of the appearance of the interior. It was just a short walk to the beach. On the way to the beach is a small lake with turtles, geese and ducks that we stopped and watched every day. Ocean lakes is a great place with everything you need to enjoy your time there with a heated indoor pool that is perfect for this time of year.
