The Blue Heron · Walk to the Falls! Celebrate Summer! Pool, Hot Tub & Fire Pit!

The Blue Heron Vacation Home sits on a private double fenced in lot in the quiet end of town. Located within walking distance to Ohiopyle State Park, GAP bike trail, restaurants, bars, rafting and unique shopping. Just 4 miles from Fallingwater. You can't beat this location!



You are going to love it here! We call this property The Blue Heron house! We picked this name because the Blue Heron is so peaceful and relaxed. If you are lucky enough to see one along the River banks, just sit quietly and watch as he grazes so peacefully. That’s just how we want you to feel at our home — Peaceful and relaxed!

This is the perfect place to enjoy the outdoors! After a long day of exploring Ohiopyle, come home to our relaxing back yard, complete with a 24ft swimming pool, patio with fire ring and deck with dining area. Grill out on the gas grill or roast marshmallows over the fire.

If its raining outside, no worries, enjoy the comfortable living area inside. Converse with family and friends around the bar and dining area or hang out and watch a movie on our giant sofa. The house has 3 bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor and 1 bedroom and a bathroom on the first floor.

Watch the sun set over our beautiful town from the sofa on the front porch.

Family getaway
Perfect location, easy walk to town. Downstairs bedroom and bath are great for someone who isn’t a fan of stars. Three more bedrooms and a large bathroom upstairs. Kitchen well equipped, roomy & spotless. Living area sofa was very comfortable. Wi-Fi sufficient for someone who had to work remotely. Cell service better outside than inside. TV had many options for a rainy day. Pool, hot tub, patio area were absolutely wonderful. Yard is large for play and secure for dogs. We had a fun, relaxing, comfortable stay and would definitely book this property again.

We had a great time staying here. So much to do and it’s so nice returning to this house. The pool was a great way to relax at the end of the day. The house was comfortable and clean. We would rent here again.
