We really enjoyed our long weekend at this listing. The best part was the screened in porch and the outdoor space. The place was clean and check in/out was easy. Definitely would stay again.

We loved this property. Everything was clean and comfortable. Everything looked to be newly remodeled. Easy check in/out. And it was easy to get around town and to the beach from the location. It was very quiet and relaxing. This was the perfect place for our stay.

Sweet
Colonial Beach is a quaint, quiet and friendly town. This cottage is super sweet and fits the area. The golf cart and location of the home were perfect to see sunrises and sunsets every day.

Wonderful weekend at Blue Heron Cottage
This property was a great fit for our small family and large dog, who loved lounging on the porch. The renovations are thoughtful, everything was comfortable, the neighborhood was quiet, and communicating with our hosts was fantastic. We'll be back!

Excellent beach cottage
The property is renovated and is extremely clean. The location is walking distance to the waterfront and was a very comfortable place to stay. The owner was prompt to respond and very courteous. We plan to rent again. Thanks!!

Easy property in a beautiful spot
Stayed here with our friends for the weekend. They had a dog and small child so the fenced in property was perfect! Enjoyed the screened in porch at night. We added on a golf cart and had a blast discovering the area. Loved seeing all the different homes around us and ate/drank a few times at Dockside which was a really fun, vacation vibe. Will definitely come back to the area.

Convenient and newly renovated
The cottage was just as we expected! A nice place to unwind and enjoy the area with family. Safe and quiet neighborhood. Having the golf cart added to our rental was well worth having! Fun to drive around (and keep the sand out of our car). Our favorite restaurant was High Tides on the boardwalk. We look forward to returning in the future.

Superb Renovation
Very accommodating. Enjoyed the screened porch and fenced yard for our dog. Minor suggestions - paring knife, drain stand for dishes, and two-ply toilet paper.

Perfect quick trip!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our trip! The house is in a great and convenient location, easily accessible to all the food places and beaches. We were able to rent a golf cart for our stay from the owners we used to get everywhere. The screened porch was perfect for enjoying coffee and breakfast in the AM and a glass of wine from one of the local wineries in the PM. We were even allowed to bring our dog and with a gated yard, she could run around as she pleased. Any questions we had were quickly responded to, would recommend to others!

Mini-Moon
My ❤️husband❤️ and I decided to take a last minute mini-honeymoon after we got married this past weekend. As always, Heather was AMAZING! As repeat guests (and being aware of our nuptials) we walked into the cottage and were greeted with a sweet card, beautiful bottle of champagne and DELICIOUS charcuterie board! We appreciated the extra effort to help make our quick getaway even more special!

Peaceful & relaxing
This was a great place for us to stay. It was very clean, cozy and comfortable. It is nestled between the river and the bay - the location is perfect. We enjoyed relaxing on the screened in porch and our little dog LOVED the fenced in yard. The driveway fit our three cars easily and the home had everything we needed - the kitchen was well stocked (except for toaster or blender). Everything was in working order including the a/c, w/d, keurig machine, smart tv and sleep sofa. It was the perfect little get-away for our family that included 4 adults, 1 child and 1 pupper. Communication with the owner was top notch. Would definitely recommend and return.

Cozy Cottage
We really enjoyed our stay at Blue Heron Cottage. Our dog Rosie especially liked the fenced yard and screened in porch, where she basked in the sun. The location was central and convenient for my husband and I to enjoy local oysters, a winery tour, and a hike in Caladon State Park. We had never been to Colonial Beach before, but we will be back!

Cozy cottage
This is a great cottage . Close to everything, but in a quaint quiet neighborhood. You won’t be disappointed its even better than the pictures. Absolutely perfect for a small family and dog. Screened porch and outside decks were great . Definitely a five star.
