About this property

Heron House | Creekside Wine Country Retreat

Your Wine Country Oasis Awaits

Set along Mill Creek, Heron House offers the space and setting for a memorable Walla Walla getaway. With five bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and plenty of room to gather, it’s particularly well suited for couples traveling together, family gatherings, and wine-country weekends.

Four King bedrooms and one Queen bedroom comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests. The spacious main-floor King primary suite includes a private en-suite bath, while the home’s 4.5 bathrooms make sharing the house easy for a larger group.

At the heart of the home, a generous kitchen and large granite island invite everyone to gather over morning coffee, appetizers, or a bottle discovered during the day’s tastings. When it’s time for dinner, the dining room seats all 10 guests together. Multiple living spaces offer plenty of room to spread out afterward.

Outside, Heron House takes full advantage of its peaceful setting. Enjoy dinner on the patio, fire up the BBQ, relax with a glass of wine by the fire pit, or let your dog enjoy the fully fenced yard. Mill Creek and nearby great blue heron nesting areas bring a special sense of place, while nearby trails offer opportunities for walking, biking, hiking, and horseback riding.

Walla Walla’s wineries, tasting rooms, restaurants, and downtown are all just a short drive away, so you can spend the day exploring and still have a comfortable place for everyone to come home and reconnect.

Heron House also includes high-speed fiber internet and a Grizzl-E Level 2 EV charger.

We are so sorry that happened to you! A capacitor failed in the pump control box. We were able to reset it as soon as we saw the message that night and brought an electrician out the next morning to permanently fix the issue. Thank you for bringing it to our attention so quickly. We appreciate the opportunity you gave us to host you and will endeavor to make your next stay trouble free should you choose to return.

The house was the perfect place to bring my family for a wine tasting weekend and to celebrate my daughter’s birthday and Easter! The house is as beautiful as it looks in the pictures and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We never had to eat out!The grounds are beautiful and the surrounding area is spectacular. We enjoyed the yard and the fire out. We walked along the Mill Creek and even saw deer in the neighborhood. Thank you for hosting this amazing place!
