About this house rental
Welcome to The Happy Heron, your ground-level oasis nestled at the corner of Heron Street and Park Rd in North Forest Beach, Hilton Head. This newly renovated gem is now even more inviting, boasting a spacious layout and modern amenities to ensure your vacation is nothing short of unforgettable.
Upon entering, you will be greeted by an open-concept living space, seamlessly blending the living room, dining area, and vaulted-ceiling kitchen.

A large island with seating for seven offers the perfect spot for casual meals or socializing with loved ones.

The Happy Heron now offers four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms. Each bedroom exudes comfort and style, providing a peaceful retreat after a day of beachcombing or exploring.
The first guest bedroom offers two sets of twin bunk beds. It is a great room for young people and has multiple hooks for hanging as well as a closet. The hall bathroom is just outside the bunk room. The next bedroom features a king bed and ensuite powder room. The third king guest bedroom has a full ensuite bathroom with shower and double vanities. The primary bedroom is large and spacious with ample seating, work space and ensuite bathroom with glass enclosure. The oasis everyone looks for on vacation. At the end of the hall is the laundry room with full size machines and plenty of beach towels for your stay.
In addition to the luxurious bedrooms, guests will appreciate the second living room with another large TV and doors to create a space away from it all when needed.
Step outside to discover the beautifully landscaped yard, complete with privacy fencing and a fenced-in doggie run area, perfect for your furry friends.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2025
Our family of seven stayed in this house and it was probably one of our favorite houses! They thought of everything! It is decorated so nice and is only a quick walk to the beach and Coligny. There were deer we saw everyday on the street outside! We will definitely rent this house again!

We had the best time staying at the property! It was absolutely gorgeous and exactly as described. The kitchen was stocked with anything and everything you can imagine to make our stay feel like home. The location is superb, a block from the beach! The heated pool and hot tub was the cherry on top! We will definetly be coming back!
6 / 10Average·Apr 2023
If I could have, I would have liked to have given this property a 3.5 out of 5 stars. But, we couldn't bring ourselves to give it a 4 star rating.
The things we liked were mostly everything that we already knew about the property - the location being the primary positive. Also, the pool and hot tub were fantastic. The pool was heated well (first week of April) and the hot tub was great. The back patio area was fantastic.
The negatives - the place was very tired and run down. All the dressers and most of the couches seemed old. Kitchen cabinets were beaten up terribly. The decor we knew from the pictures, but the age/wear was more than expected.
Also, the cleaning crew didn't do a good enough job. There was a dirty kleenex and sock under the bed, and one of the living room areas hadn't been swept as their were leaves and sand on the floor.
For the price, it wasn't a bad place. The location and pool area are fantastic. If you don't mind some age on the furniture either, you'll enjoy your stay here even more than we did!
As always, HHI, and particularly North Forest Beach area was fantastic. Thank you!
