About this property
Waterfront Scallop & Fish Spot! Private Dock 2 boats + Ice Machine—Pet Friendly
Skip the long idle times and the morning ice run. Located just 200 yards from the open Gulf, Heron House is a waterfront paradise designed for those who live for the water. Whether you’re here for the legendary scalloping or world-class fishing, our private dock and 160lb/day commercial ice machine ensure your catch stays fresh and your cooler stays full.
This spacious, pet-friendly 3-bedroom home sits high on pylons, offering shaded parking for up to three vehicles. Inside, you’ll find a bright, single-story layout with a fully equipped kitchen (Keurig + drip coffee included) and a living area built for relaxation. With a King master, Queen guest room, Twin room, and two comfy futons, we comfortably sleep 9.
Use the private ramp just two doors down (boats up to 18’) or the Keaton Beach ramp 1.5 miles away. Tie up at our new private dock with room for two 20' boats, and clean your catch at the new dedicated fish-cleaning station.
Two levels of covered outdoor space overlook the canal. Fire up the charcoal grill and enjoy dinner al fresco at the picnic table under the ceiling fans.
Don’t leave your best friend behind—your pup is welcome to join the adventure!
Location Highlights ~ 200 yards to the Gulf of Mexico. ~ Private canal-front dock. ~ Short trip to Keaton Beach’s pier and pavilion.

Very nice place to stay, great views. A lot of good places to eat.
Had a great time.
Would definitely recommend this wonderful home for your next trip.
Our family loved our stay at Heron House. The house was nice, clean, had amenities we expected to have at hand on property. Neighbors were very nice. Good location for our boat to get in and out of and easy access to the gulf. Owners responded to any concerns or questions quickly. We plan to be back July 2024.
The property is as advertised, with direct access to the Gulf, though the canal will be almost dry at ultra low tide. My kid enjoyed catching blue crabs in the canal when we weren’t busy looking for scallops in the Gulf. The view from the porch is a nice, relaxing way to spend a morning or afternoon.The downsides are so small that they’re barely worth mentioning. The pillows aren’t great and the bedrooms don’t have ceiling fans, so a portable fan is needed to have any air movement. The house does have fans for this purpose, but a stronger one is needed if you like good air movement when you sleep.Overall, it’s a great place and my family would love to stay again.

About the host
Your host
We are a retired couple who live on a small farm in Georgia. Our grown children and grandchildren love to fish so Heron House is our vacation destination of choice. The views from the deck are beautiful, and quick access to the Gulf is perfect. We hope our guests like it, too!
Why they chose this property
We couldn't resist the beautiful view of the canal, and the dock offers a short distance to the Gulf of Mexico by water.
What makes this property unique
Private dock with nearby boat launch and fish cleaning station. The double deck is covered and offers lots of seating to soak up the view!
