Fantastic Fourth with Family and Friends

We stayed at the Blue Heron with a few families and their kids to celebrate my late dad’s birthday. Each family was able to have their own space, and the back patio was perfect for the babies to have a kiddie pool, and the lake was perfect for the older kids to swim. We loved the lily pad, and yard for family relay races. Would love to come back to the Blue Heron!

Lake Conroe Lakefront Home

Very nice house with covered deck, dock and boat lift. Great view of the lake. Nice location on the lake in a quiet neighborhood. I stayed for a month for the second year and hope i can come again next year. Plenty of space for 10 people. Very thoroughly cleaned. The house manager and owners are very friendly and very responsive. I highly recommend this vacation house for one person or for family gatherings.
