"We thoroughly enjoyed our 3-night stay. Our king room on the first floor was very comfortable, spotless, had a large bathroom, and even a little back deck. The historic property was beautifully restored and clearly very well cared for by innkeeper Veronica and her team. Veronica's gourmet breakfasts were a huge treat, different every morning, and served with attention to every detail in the elegant dining room. Veronica was happy to share suggestions on activities and restaurants in the area....

"The Blue Heron was absolutely lovely. Christine is a wonderful host and went out of her way to ensure her guests were comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. The house is clean and beautifully decorated…and not in a cheesy or old creepy kinda way. It’s tastefully antique and chic. The parking is a tight, but once you’re there, you don’t need your car again until you leave. It’s in walking distance to great restaurants and downtown. We truly enjoyed ourselves and can’t wait until our next visit."
