3 Bedroom House in Birch Bay, Blaine

Escape to Blue Heron Beach Cottage, a cozy, pet-friendly retreat just a 60-second walk to miles of sand in beautiful Birch Bay. This charming cottage sleeps up to six and is perfect for couples, families, or small groups. Enjoy a private, fully fenced garden with BBQ and fire pit, unwind by the fireplace, or stroll to nearby Birch Bay State Park. Comfort, charm, and the beach just outside your door....as well as the infamous C Shop to get your ice cream and candy fix on! Whether you’re here for quiet mornings, sunset walks, or quality time with loved ones (including your pup), this is a place to truly slow down. Come as you are and leave feeling refreshed.
We've thoughtfully designed this space to be the perfect retreat for 2-3 couples or a small group of friends and family. We have been visiting short-term rentals and VRBOs for more than 25 years and have curated our sweet cottage specifically to be the home away from home you (and your pup) craves. We've thought of the details we've always wanted when traveling. We know you'll love getting away to Birch Bay and calling Blue Heron home while you're visiting.
We welcome up to two well-behaved 50 lb canine companions at Blue Heron. We have three fully-fenced areas designed for their comfort and your peace of mind!
