Riverfront Cottage - Get Away from It All!

About this space
Enjoy the tranquility of the Bogue Chitto river in the Blue Heron Cabin. This waterfront cabin sits on 2 acres and offers beautiful views of the river and nature. The cabin is bright and cozy and provides many outdoor spaces, including an outdoor shower and three porches. Two kayaks are available for use at no additional charge.

Enjoy the tranquility of the Bogue Chitto river in the Blue Heron Cabin. This waterfront cabin sits on 2 acres and offers beautiful views of the river and nature. The cabin is bright and cozy and provides many outdoor spaces, including an outdoor shower and three porches. Two kayaks are available for use at no additional charge.

The space
Inside the cabin, there is a bathroom with shower, a bedroom with a full bed, and two bunk beds in an alcove. The cabin is outfitted with everything you need to cook or grill, including utensils, pots and pans, a small fridge, two charcoal grills, a gas stove top, and toaster oven. Due to Covid-19, we ask that guests please bring their own edible cooking essentials, like spices.

Our favorite activities at the cabin include:
- Enjoying morning coffee on the porch
- Swinging by the river
- Grilling
- Putting chairs in the river to sit and enjoy the cool, crisp water *the river should be enjoyed with caution
- Picking wildflowers along the road leading to the cabin
- Reading by the fireplace in cool weather
- Drinking libations in the evening under the string lights
- Looking out for the magnificent blue heron that is our cabin's namesake.

Important Notes about the Blue Heron Cabin:
- Water service is provided by well. If you do not enjoy the taste of well water, you may consider bringing bottled water.
- The Blue Heron cabin is a retreat in the woods. As such, you may encounter all kinds of nature, including various animals and critters. Mosquito repellent is available in the cabin.
- As you will see under the amenities section, the cabin does not have wifi or a TV. Its is a perfect place to disconnect and unwind. However, AT&T service is very strong in the area.
- Our golden retriever stays with us in the cabin during our visits. While we do our best to ensure there is no remaining dog hair, we want you to be aware in case you have allergies to dogs.
- We welcome families to the cabin! However, for those with small children, please be aware that there are many steps around the cabin, the cabin is not child-proof, and the cabin is located directly on the river (no fence or barrier). A pack-n-play is available.
- The property features two showers. However, there is no bathtub.
