My family really enjoyed this beautiful property. We enjoyed walking to both the coast and town in only a few minutes. We would definitely stay again, thanks!
Beautiful view, comfortable space, convenient to everything, yet secluded. Family from lower 48 raved about the scenery every day they stepped outside.
Our large family group stayed in Blue Heron for a week as we gathered for a wedding. It suited our needs really well, as there were three bedrooms and baths, a roomy living room with comfortable seating, a large dining table that seats eight, and a kitchen that allowed us to cook meals for our group.
The views of the water and mountains from the house are wonderful. It's a short walk from town, so very conveniently located. Should we have a family reunion at some point, we would love to stay here again.
Fantastic house and property surrounded by spectacular waterfront scenery and moutains
Plush modern spacious comfortable home on a beautiful waterfront property with spectacular views of open waterways, mountain ranges, the harbor and town of Haines. This is the perfect location and I greatly enjoyed staying in this wonderful home. This is the Alaskan experience you really want. Watching the sunset into the mountains, building a fire in the pit, and star gazing late into the night. Morning coffee in the sunroom and walk to town. A hike or some fishing or golf. Blue Heron and Haines is the best!!
Amazing setting for this beautiful property! Haines is a really friendly town and staying at Blue Heron is the absolute best!! You will be thrilled with the incredible view from the back deck overlooking the beach! Very comfortable home with everything you need. Thanks Terri!!!
We were two families travelling together and this was a great place for us to stay all together. Loved the view. The yard and toys were perfect for the kids. We forgot about the time change and arrived early and our host was very gracious and allowed us to check in early. Overall a great place to stay in such a beautiful location.
We stayed here for 2 weeks in August. Everything we needed for a family of six was here. Laundry and wi-fi worked great. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor games and most of all the firepit. The water views are fabulous and the fact that the house is between two roads does not detract from that. There is enough vegetation in the back to keep the road from view. The location is excellent , you can walk to downtown and it is still a short drive to the ferry terminal and Chilkoot Lake area (where we saw lots of bears!)
One down side is that there are no screens on the back doors. Flys were an extreme nuisance and it would have been nice to be able to keep them out while enjoying the beautiful Alaskan weather. Also, the hot water kept running out when we showered, so we had to space out the showers because of this.
Overall, I would recommend staying at this great location to enjoy the beautiful views that Blue Heron has to offer.
My family very much enjoyed the Blue Heron House. It was spacious with lots of natural light and plenty of play spaces including yard for the kids. This will be a top pick for our next visit to Haines. It's conveniently located yet private.
The property manager was very easy to deal with and had great communication.
Highly recommended!
Our entire family loved our stay. We really can't say enough wonderful things about the home, the yard, the view and Haines, itself. When booking online, the description of the property is exactly accurate - we were not disappointed in any way. In fact, it exceeded our expectations.
Thank you for enhancing our family vacation. We will rent again sometime in the future when our family has a chance to be together.
We loved our stay at the Blue Heron and found everything very accommodating. The house was very clean, free of clutter and very comfortable. Great location, close to the center of Haines and a beautiful view of the water. The owner was extremely nice and flexible with our schedule and I'll be sure to stay again when returning to Haines!
Quite possibly the most majestic vistas I have seen! Bald eagles flying back and forth, incredible views of the water and mountains. Walking distance to town and short drives to many incredible hikes and nature viewing areas. House was lovely and clean and well maintained. The fire pit is an amazing place to unwind after a long day and the amenities (volley ball, corn hole, etc) were a lot of fun. Highly highly recommended! A+!
