We first stayed at The Blue Heron three years ago and were very impressed. So, we have kept going back. JP and Jill are super hosts . Our needs are met immediately. The apt. Is clean with a fully functional kitchen and outdoor grill. There is a laundry for our use there also. This property is close to downtown in a very walkable and safe neighborhood. It is near to bike riding paths and golf courses. It also has a back deck and our dog is welcome too! We love it and will be going back. Mark and Kathy

Nice inside but wont stay here again.-black mold in the shower. Also barely had enough time to wash my hair and shave before water went ice cold- unit was hard to find and poorly marked -keypad to unit didnt work well-Heat didnt work well-every outlet had glade plugins that were overwhelmomg along witj an aroma therapy machine-tv didnt work well-clogged shower drainage -No checkout instructions- shared laundry unit that was somewhere outside and for our stay we couldnt use it bc of assigned times. -no directions of where to take trash or what to do with itCaught the unit on sale but even then it wasnt worth the cost. No extra linen we could find and it was hard to heat the unit without turning the heat up high, then it got too hot and we had to tuen the a.c back on to cool it off. We couldnt get a comfortable temp.
