“A gorgeous and huge master-planned community”
Heron Bay’s guard-gated landscape is a manicured vision of South Florida’s tropical beauty on the edge of the Everglades. Backyards open to glittering lakes while royal palms and live oaks shade the sidewalks. Waterways wind around the neighborhood, creating peninsulas out of many subdivisions. “It’s a gorgeous and huge master-planned community,” says Parkland native Melissa Hoff Roth, a local Realtor with Compass. “And there are plenty of amenities to match the scale.” More than 10,000 residents enjoy Heron Bay’s facilities, which include two clubhouses. Roth says the neighborhood’s ample amenities and walkability make it very attractive to families, as does the school district. Heron Bay may live in two cities — Parkland and Coral Springs — but it’s zoned for Parkland schools. On top of its excellent education, beautiful landscape and state-of-the-art facilities, Heron Bay also has a convenient location right off the Sawgrass Expressway.

Decades of Spanish Revivals
Heron Bay’s subdivisions were developed between the 1990s and 2023. They feature diverse housing options, from coach homes to waterfront estates. Despite the variety, curbside appeals maintain a cohesive aesthetic. The grand arches, earthy hues, stucco sidings and barrel roof tiles of the Spanish Revival style can be seen on every residence. Coach homes and townhouses list between $485,000 and $700,000. Three- to four-bedroom single-family properties start in the high $600,000s, maxing out around $950,000. Five- and six-bedroom houses climb to $2.5 million. "Home values consistently hold strong in Heron Bay and, away from the city, homebuyers can get more space for their money," says Jorge Perez, a local RE/MAX Experience Realtor who lived in the community for eight years. Lot sizes range from 5,000 square feet to just over a quarter acre. Deep-set verandas and in-ground pools are common backyard features. Garages and driveways are standard. The neighborhood is managed by the Heron Bay Community Association; monthly fees vary from subdivision to subdivision.

Marjory Stoneman Douglas High is healing
Heron Bay students attend Broward County Public Schools, including Heron Heights Elementary, Park Trails Elementary and West Glades Middle — each earning an A-minus on Niche. Students graduate from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High, graded A-plus. The school’s dual enrollment program lets them complete diploma requirements while earning college credit without paying for books or tuition. Participating colleges are the University of Florida, Florida International University, and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. While parents may have reservations about sending their kids to Stoneman Douglas after the mass shooting in 2018, Roth says the community’s close-knit nature has only strengthened since. “People don’t know how the community came together to support the students.” In addition to a small memorial and tribute garden on campus, a public memorial is currently being constructed along the Parkland-Coral Springs border. The site of the tragedy was demolished in June of 2024.
Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School has been serving the neighborhood since 1990.

Community clubhouses and Pine Trails Park
Tree-lined sidewalks loop around all of Heron Bay, perfect for morning jogs and walking dogs. Plaza Del Lago is the neighborhood’s northern clubhouse, where kids can play on splash pads while parents lounge by the resort-style pool, enjoying the ambiance of a cascading waterfall. Other amenities at Plaza Del Lago include a fitness center, sauna, basketball courts and a sand volleyball court. Another sand volleyball court can be found on the neighborhood’s south side by The Commons. This clubhouse is a hub for racquet sports, home to a tennis shop, two full-time tennis pros, 10 clay tennis courts, and indoor racquetball courts. Rumor has it that pickleball facilities are coming soon. On top of that, The Commons is also a place to relax thanks to its pool, jacuzzi and tiki bar. Pine Trails Park is another nearby option for getting outdoors, just 2 miles away. Residents can head to play baseball, soccer, football, or any other sport on the park's multi-use grass and turf sports fields. This park also has a fishing pier and walking trails that pass by public fitness equipment.

Clubhouse get-togethers
One glance at the community calendar shows there’s always something to do at the clubhouses, from ice cream parties and food truck socials to live shows with local comedians and musicians. The Heron Bay Farmers Market is a favorite, bringing fresh produce and artisan goods to the green lawns of Plaza Del Lago.
