Vacation Rental Description

Heron Now is a comfortable bayfront home located on St George 
Island overlooking          
Apalachicola Bay. The large deck offers seabreezes and a private 
panoramic  
overlook of the bay and estuarine reserve. You have the same view from  
inside the house and even from the updated kitchen.  
     Heron Now has the best of both vacation worlds: the gulf coast 
beaches  
and the beautiful bayside marsh.  The spacious nationally ranked gulf 
coast beach is only  
1.5 blocks away via easy public access. There you can  swim in the 
waves, fish  
the surf, or lounge among sand castles. Heron Now adjoins the bayside 
world  
of the Apalachicola National Estuarine Reserve which provides one mile of  
undeveloped bayshore waterfront to explore by foot or boat. The 
Reserve is part of the  
Great Florida Birding Trail. Bring your canoes and kayaks(or rent 
locally) because there is  
bay access. Bring your fishing gear because the bay  is full of sea 
trout, redfish, and  
mullet. Bring your camera  and binoculars because every hike or paddle 
will bring a new  
discovery.
