The property is perfect. Pictures of outdoor space do not do justice. Such a beautiful property and has everything stocked and ready for you to just show up with your suitcase. The property manager is amazing with communication and everything was well explained and ready for our family. Found our new favorite Sarasota spot for when we visit

We rented the house for two months, January and February. On arrival (New Years Eve) we found a bottle of Cava on the counter with two champagne glasses. This was a wonderful welcoming touch. We have a lot of good things to say about Blue Heron Ranch and would highly recommend it to others.
The site managers are very responsive – literally they are there in an instant if anything needs to be addressed. House is as advertised- well appointed, well supplied- especially the kitchen. If you love to cook they essentially have everything you are likely to use/need including a knife sharpener, microplane grater, etc. Great pans, nice dishes (Crate and Barrel) nice glassware, and wine glasses, and three corkscrews.
The Wifi was fast enough and the TVs are both smart TVs. The beds are comfortable with nice sheets. In the garage there are chairs, umbrellas, and a cart for the beach. In addition, a lot of inflatables/floaters for the pool. The pool is heated and is cleaned once a week by the pool maintenance service. The backyard is a perfect place to relax with many wonderful seating areas and lounge chairs, and a large teak dining table. The grill was replaced while we were here and the new grill is a Cadillac. There are also separate utensils for the grill and outdoor glasses/plates/bowls (plastic) to avoid getting glass by the pool.
The house is just next to the Legacy Trail- great for walking, running or biking (bring your own bikes and helmets). We were so pleased with the property, the management and the location that we made a booking for next year.

We were so impressed with this property. It was probably the cleanest home we have ever rented. The property managers are great. Detailed, informative and clear communications were provided. Perfect for a group of our Project Management team, in response to Hurricane Ian.

Property was very nice, clean and tastefully decorated. Loved the pool. Property is in an older (but nice) neighborhood but location was very convenient. Kitchen well stocked with utensils, etc. Would definitely lease this property again.

Unfortunately we lost our mother to Covid in August 2021 and we had not been able to bring her ashes to FL until June 2022. We found the perfect house for our family affair. The house had everything we needed and more. It really helped so we didn't have to bring so much stuff. The location is wonderful for whatever you are looking for. The recommendations in the book for restaurants was spot on (we are happy to say we agreed with their recommdations). The pool and lounging area outside was great for those sunny days and getting in some swim time. The walking trail down the street is nice so bring your tennis shoes if you want to get a quick walk in.

This house was amazing! The backyard is to die for… perfect place to relax and have fun with the family. The house has everything you need for a vacation. It’s about a 15 minute drive to the beach. If you have kids, check out Turtle Beach. For food, groceries… nothing is really more than 20 minutes from the house. It’s a great location, plenty of amenities, and a beautiful house inside and out. We would definitely stay here again!!

Lovely home
This was our first VRBO rental and it was lovely. The house and yard were just as pictured. Unfortunately the weather hit historic cold with days of rain so we never got in the pool. Our stay included 3 days of golf, visits to Casey Key, great restaurants, and shopping as well as rides on Legacy Trail.

What a Terrific Stay!
We stayed at this property for almost 4 weeks and had a terrific experience! The beds were extremely comfortable, and the home overall just had a chill vacation feel. The backyard was beautiful! We spent a majority of our time in the heated pool and running around with our kids in the back yard. The Legacy Trail right behind the house should definitely be mentioned! A freshly paved trail that was perfect to take our 2 kids on walks. Centrally located to plenty of places to eat and only 20-25 minutes to Siesta Key beach. Any issues that arose were taken care of promptly by the property manager. He was quick to respond to anything we needed, which I consider very important. Memories were made at this home! Highly recommended to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation.

Pool of Paradise
Our vacation was very relaxing especially because of the pool and surroundings outside. We all needed the sun therapy and that is what we got. The beds were so comfortable that we didn't want to get up in the morning. I love the new trails that are being put in, this is an huge plus for anyone that likes to take a walk in the morning and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. This was my first time in Florida and from the experiences I had here we will for sure be back.
I want to Thank Adam and Julianna for all their help and answers to our many questions.

We loved our stay at the blue heron! I am super picky and was pleased with the cleanliness and layout and the house is truly as beautiful as the pictures. All the spaces were so thoughtfully designed. Kitchen was easy to use and we loved all the doors leading out to the pool. Adam, the property manager was easy to communicate with and prompt in getting us anything we needed. The only thing different from the pictures is there are only 2 lounge chairs by the pool, instead of the 4 we were expecting. Still plenty of hang out space outside. Our only complaint is the neighbor’s tree that hangs over the pergola and outdoor couches was literally dropping junk all day long. I would clear them off to use and 5 minutes later they were covered again. Nothing you can do, but we didn’t use those spaces a ton because of that. I cooked a lot and a couple medium size serving/mixing bowls and more silverware would be helpful. We would have loved to stay longer, would definitely go back and highly recommend!

This home sets the standard
I don't write reviews for the places that we stay, because we stay at so many. Yet, I am compelled to write about this rental.
My wife and I sold our home in November and set out with our children. We have no end date and are staying a month at a time in different locations around the US. (Road school!)
Blue Heron Ranch is one of the best places that we have stayed in our eight years of using rental properties. The house has been completely redone tastefully. It provides a fresh, light and very comfortable home with all amenities needed. Then, there is the pool and back yard. It is a wonderful resort all its own.
The location is convenient to all needs and is a 20 minute or less drive to the beaches. Skip the congestion on the islands and go there when you wish. Then, return to this wonderful oasis in a quiet neighborhood.
A coming plus is that the nearby extension of the Legacy Trail is being completed soon, with access just two minutes away. This will give the opportunity for miles of walking, running and cycling.
Did I say 10 out of 10? I am even not a friend or relative of the owner! If they continue to keep the home fresh and maintained as it is now it will be a great destination for all far into the future.
Wish we could hitch the property to the back of our car and take it with us. Well done!
