“This was a wonderful place to stay and I highly recommend booking with Ginger and Mike! They were incredibly responsive - to the point that, while a tornado touched down during our stay (luckily away from the property), they offered to allow us to shelter in another, potentially safer place on the property. They are incredibly kind and the area was quiet and peaceful!! Highly recommend!”

“Lived in Delaware for 13 years before moving to Tennessee in 2021. It was my first time coming back since then to attend a concert in Jersey with my best friend/vacation time. When I saw Heron's Nest, it looked like the perfect place for my almost week long stay; and it was. Looked just like the pictures and had just about everything you could need. Host were very nice and responded quickly to messages. Heron's Nest is definitely going to be the first place I look for for any future visits! 🪺🌻”

“Tiny home was wonderful, clean, and had lots of bells and whistles. Ginger and Mike were very responsive and helpful. Cute little touches like wifi password matching the reason we were in the area.
Lots of little extras such as coffee, creamer, bagels, oranges, shampoo/conditioner etc.
Laundry in space was an added bonus. Would stay in again for sure! Highly recommend the tiny home as well and Ginger/Mike as hosts!”

“Ginger & Mikes place was great! A really good couples getaway. It was super close to town where you could easily find food and shopping, also not too far from the major beaches along the coast! It was such a cute home and had everything you could need inside and was so clean. I would definitely stay here again!”

“This is the best tiny house! So well stocked and so close to DE Turf! The bed converts to a king so it’s great for a couple or a parent plus one kid. It’s so well appointed and the hosts are incredibly friendly and responsive. We will be back!”

“I loved staying at this Airbnb so much. It was the perfect size for my son and I while he played in a local lacrosse tournament. There wasn't a single detail overlooked by Ginger and Mike - everything was well thought out from the amazing shower with the nozzle options to bagels in the freezer in case we didn't have time to grab breakfast before heading to the fields (We took advantage of those bagels). The space was so comfortable and cute - we wished we could have stayed longer. With all the lacrosse tournaments that occur in Delaware we know we will back and will say here every time. Thank you Ginger and Mike!”

“This was my first Airbnb and exceeded expectations. This house was perfect for my son and I traveling for a lacrosse tournament. Very quiet location 15 min from de turf. 10-15 min drive to restaurants and stores. Every amenity was there. Use of grills, gazebo, etc. you can eat out or cook at the house. The house was spotless with plenty of room for the 2 of us. The hosts, Mike and ginger, were welcoming and there to answer any questions we had. Would highly recommend herons nest b.”
