Peaceful canal-front 3/3 Single-Family Home w/ Private Pool & Cabana Club Access

Welcome to Blue Heron House, your private canal-front escape in the heart of Key Colony Beach. This ground-level, single-family home offers 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and is tucked away in a quiet, safe, and walkable neighborhood—perfect for unwinding and enjoying island life.

The home sits on a deep, wide canal with a 75-ft dock (45 ft of usable boat dockage due to the boat lift) and provides quick access to the Vaca Cut Bridge. From here, both the Atlantic and Gulf are just minutes away, making it an ideal location for boating, fishing, and diving. The dock is equipped with a fish-cleaning station, running water, and an umbrella for added convenience.

This east-facing home features a private heated pool, barbecue grill, and a fully equipped kitchen—everything you need for relaxing days at home. Guests also enjoy access to The Cabana Club, which offers a large pool, hot tub, sandy beach, as well as an on-site restaurant and bar.

Key Colony Beach is a peaceful, friendly community with easy walkability and access to public tennis, pickleball, and basketball courts, along with a Par-3 golf course. For your enjoyment, the home includes kayaks, tennis rackets, pickleball paddles, and family board games.

Rentals are typically Saturday to Saturday, with flexible dates available between September and December.

Perfect Stay. Home was clean, had everything we needed. Pool was heated which worked out perfectly for the stay since we were here during the coldest week of the season. Nice wide windows off the kitchen to view the boats and kayaks traveling on the canal while eating inside. I enjoyed the kayaks that Helen provided as well. Helen has been so nice, communicated almost immediately with any questions. All in all a great place, great location, just a short walk to Sunset Beach to watch the sunset. We will be back!!
