About this property

Blue Heron Bungalow at Lake Tillery

Create memories year after year at this quaint bungalow with deep water & a dock! Floaties & kayaks provided, nature preserve in the cove, fire pit, WFH setup & the best sunsets!

This property is unique as it’s in Jacob’s Creek cove on LKT where boat and jet ski traffic is little to none. The cove also has a nature preserve where you’ll see wood ducks fly in, blue herons raise their chicks each year, ospreys hunt in the evening and you can kayak to see beavers!

The Blue Heron Bungalow is named for just one of the many birds who occupy our cove. The blue herons have a nest in the tree across the way and raise their chicks every year. You can catch our blue heron friends “fishing” off the dock roof most mornings if you’re up early enough! We love to watch them and appreciate their presence as they eat/deter snakes (we haven’t seen a snake the whole time we’ve had the property and we give credit to our feathered friends/namesake).

The home has 3 bedrooms (2 kings & 1 queen), one pullout couch, 2 full bathrooms and has an outdoor shower on the side! The home is setup/focused on letting as much light in and enjoying the amazing views. Each room has its own tv (fire stick) and there are cards and board games around the house for you to enjoy.

Kayaks and floaties provided for enjoying the lake. Bluetooth speakers are all set for listening to music on the deck. The dock is covered and uncovered for however much sun you want to soak in! We have a hammock and manual jet ski lift you can use. With advanced notice we can set up the front yard for pups. There is no fence!

All motorized vessels should be mentioned prior to booking.

Before your arrival, your unique lock code will be texted to you. Park in the driveway please! Check in and out via the app.

Lake Tillery (1hr from CLT & 2hrs from RDU)

You will enjoy your own drive way and parking area.

Practically next door to other bnbs if you’re hopeful to host more!

Enjoy the dock with water 10ft deep (no diving) in one of Lake Tillery’s favorite coves known for being private and across from a conservation area.

No HOA so you can come and go as you please. For the safety of you and your vehicle, and to maintain house rules, exterior security cameras are in use. Mostly they are used for watching birds, but they are there just in case. They will be able to detect how many people you bring with you. 8 MAX.

The bungalow is 10 minutes to Albemarle center with grocery and dining options (you can even DoorDash!) while also being a 5 minute drive to hiking/outdoors.

Neighborhood suitable for short walks but car preferred for anything beyond. No sidewalks. No public transportation. Bike routes nearby, but when we’ve asked friends who’ve biked Uwharrie and come to this area for the trails, they would not call the area "bike-friendly"

BUT The Uwharrie bike trails are amazing and only 5 miles away.

Maximum 8 people. Children over 10 are considered people.

Non-smoking

Please know neighbors (30 second walk) also rent on Airbnb if you’d like your own place but want to be close to family/friends who’d like to also rent!

$50 per pet, per stay.
Service animals welcome without charge.

Your pet is welcome in the yard and dock area, but leash laws must be followed in the neighborhood.

Per AirBnB policy Emotional support animals (ESA) must be controlled at all times, never left alone and be house- broken. If evidence of indoor fouling is found, you will lose your deposit, fees will be levied and you will be reported for fraud to hosting platforms for misusing ESA designation.

Memorial Day Weekend
We had a great time at the Blue Heron Bungalow for a couple nights. The house was super clean and the hosts were very accommodating! The cove is very quiet and we enjoyed taking the kayaks out & being able to keep our boat there to go out on the lake as well. Being pet-friendly was a big plus! Thanks for a great couple days on the lake!
Stayed 2 nights in May 2024
