I had an emergency and couldn't stay. The house is beautiful and exactly what it promises. A bit far from downtown if you don't have a car. We really wish we could have stayed.

The space we rented from Marcy, family exceeded expectations which unfortunately does not happen often enough. The home, the location and the gardens were all wonderful! Can’t wait to stay there again.

Amazing place in a prime location

Marcy and the Blue Heron Manor were top notch! Marcy was very responsive and made us feel right at home during our stay. The space overall is beautiful and finds a striking balance between being curated and comfortable. We especially loved the historical notes on the area, the very supportive and comfortable beds, and brief walking distance to the best of Columbia City. Couldn't recommend this space highly enough!
