About the host
Hosted by Michelle McManus
I'm a warm and friendly extrovert that never met a stranger but value my alone time too. My husband Kevin is my polar opposite and we keep each other balanced. I've been married to my soul mate for 33 years and we have 3 grown children so we are new empty nesters. We are big dog lovers. I equally enjoy getting grubby while out fishing or getting dolled up to go on a girl's night out. We're excited to welcome you to our slice of paradise!
Why they chose this property
Our peaceful subdivision is rural and wooded and located just minutes from the conveniences of College Station.
What makes this property unique
Blue Heron Hideaway is home to a stunning large, stocked pond that we share with 3 quiet neighbors. The way our property is situated, we get the best of both worlds, wooded privacy and wide open space to watch the stars and the stunning sunsets. We can soak in the pool while taking in the serene pond view and all of the migratory birds that come to visit. Being able to cast a line just steps from our door has been the greatest blessing of all.
