Rooted in Community

Originally known as Blue Heron Bed & Breakfast, this historic property has been thoughtfully reimagined to offer a collection of unique accommodations in the heart of Old Mandeville. Whether you're planning a romantic getaway, a family vacation, an extended stay, or a gathering with friends, Blue Heron offers flexible lodging options designed to help guests experience the best of the Northshore.
 

Blue Heron is owned and operated by Northshore natives Steven and Sarah Federer, whose deep love for Old Mandeville and the surrounding community is reflected in every detail.
 

While the award-winning Blue Heron has evolved beyond its bed and breakfast roots, its purpose remains the same: creating a welcoming place for visitors to experience the beauty, hospitality, and laid-back charm of Old Mandeville.

​

The Experience

No matter how you stay, Blue Heron is designed to help you slow down and settle in. Enjoy a peaceful weekend in one of our private king suites, spread out in the spacious Pontchartrain Villa, or reserve the entire property for a larger gathering. Each accommodation combines comfort, character, and walkable access to everything that makes Old Mandeville special.
