About this house rental

Welcome to The White Heron, our Jewel of the Forgotten Coast — a stunning Southern Contemporary retreat where timeless Old Florida charm meets modern coastal luxury. Originally built in the 1920s, this historic home has been completely transformed into a one-of-a-kind luxurious Bayfront escape, perfectly situated in the heart of Port St. Joe.

This 6-bedroom, 5.5-bath home offers everything you could dream of for a tropical beach oasis — including a private Bayfront beach, spa/hot tub, and large private pool for your family’s enjoyment. Spend your evenings by the beachside fire pit, surrounded by the glow of unforgettable panoramic sunsets over the bay.

Come fall in love with the spirit of Old Florida and let The White Heron recharge your soul while rejuvenating your spirit.

As you step inside, you’re welcomed into a chef’s dream kitchen designed for gathering and entertaining. The heart of the home features:
- A 10-foot quartz island with bar seating for 7
- Bayfront views that fill the space with natural light
- High-end appliances including a 6-burner LG gas cooktop with double oven, Bosch microwave drawer, and KitchenAid French-door refrigerator with ice and filtered water
- Double sink with disposal, prep sink, and LG dishwasher
- The kitchen opens seamlessly to the family room, where you can unwind with breathtaking bay views or enjoy a movie night on the 72" Samsung Smart TV.

Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area features a Pottery Barn table for 12, set against vintage white brick walls and a Restoration Hardware buffet — creating a casually elegant setting. Step outside for alfresco dining for 10 on the Bayfront patio, where every meal comes with a front-row seat to the sunset.

The spacious entertainment room includes:
- A cozy fireplace
- Pool table, dartboard, and board games
- Additional window bar seating for 8, made from reclaimed sinker cypress wood from the local Dead Lakes
- A dry bar with beverage fridges for your favorite drinks

The main floor offers three luxurious suites:
- There is a cozy bunk room retreat featuring two built-in queen bunk beds with stunning water views and French doors opening to the outdoor living area.
- The main level master includes a daybed with trundle, Samsung TV with Roku, ample closet space, and a spa-inspired ensuite bath with a rain showerhead (sleeps 4).
- A guest room on the main level features a queen bed and walk-in closet, with a beautifully tiled hall bath showcasing a double-headed 8-foot glass shower.

Upstairs, you’ll find:
- A grand hall bath with double vanity and glassed double shower
- A bunk room that sleeps 5, complete with blackout shades
- A Bayfront guest room with queen bed, sitting area, and vintage fireplace
- The upstairs master suite with king bed, bay views, and an airy ensuite bath with double vanity and glass shower

Step into your own outdoor paradise — a covered living and kitchen pavilion that brings luxury and comfort together.

The outdoor kitchen includes:
- Built-in gas grill with single burner (perfect for a low country boil)
- Triple sink, built-in icemaker, and Green Egg smoker
- Refrigerator, freezer, and ample counter space
- A large teak dining table for 10 plus additional seating
- Comfortable wicker sectional with coffee table and cooling ceiling fans

Relax under the pavilion or take a dip in the private pool, soak in the hot tub, or stretch out on the king-size covered cabana bed overlooking the bay.

A poolside bathroom and outdoor shower add convenience, while the ambient lighting from the pavilion to the palm trees creates an enchanting nighttime atmosphere.

Enjoy the private beach by roasting marshmallows at the fire pit or wade fishing for redfish and trout. Take the free kayaks and paddleboards out into the calm, clear waters or stroll along the shore collecting shells and watching dolphins in the distance.

Kids will love exploring the tidal islands and shallow water, while adults can grab one of our custom #LivetheBeachLife bicycles and cruise the scenic bay path to the lighthouse. For more exploring, golf cart rentals are available to cruise around town.

The White Heron is located just a short walk or bike ride to downtown Port St. Joe, where you’ll find local boutiques, coastal dining, live music, and old-fashioned ice cream shops. This charming town offers everything from fresh seafood and friendly locals to stunning Gulf beaches just a short drive away.

You’ll also be close to tennis courts, playgrounds, and a local boat ramp (less than ⅛ mile away). With parking for 8–10 cars, an oversized carport, and space for boats or RVs, this home is ideal for families and groups of all sizes.

Whether you’re here for rest or adventure, The White Heron offers the perfect blend of luxury, history, and coastal beauty — a true Jewel of the Forgotten Coast.

Beautiful location with a private beach. We enjoyed the fire pit while watching the sunset after dining outside every evening. A lot of games to play indoors and outside. Nice size pool with a hot tub. Within walking distance of a grocery store and six pickleball courts! Very clean and spacious house. Hope to go come back in the future!

We chose this VRBO strictly for the bay front property, private pool, hot tub, outdoor kitchen. This house was everything we hoped for and more! SO relaxing! We literally stayed outside in the back yard all day/evening during our stay, and cooked all meals enjoying the outdoor kitchen! 12/10 would recommend! The firepit was perfect for s’mores and enjoying the beautiful sunset each night!
