Wonderful lake home. Best lake vacation ever.

This beautiful lake house is one of the most wonderful homes we have stayed in. This house has everything a family needs to spend a vacation full of relaxation, fun, and comfort. The house is impeccably clean. The patio and yard, too. Its owners have worked very hard to give the best to their guests. The kitchen is spacious, full of everything you need to cook any meal. The rooms were excellent, and the beds were extremely comfortable and clean. On the lower floor there is a large and spacious game room. My kids had a lot of fun playing on the pool table. They had a blast and they want to return soon. My husband is a fisherman, and he had a great time,too. He fish a lot from the dock. Even a 12-pound catfish. That fish made his trip very memorable. We have our own boat and we brought it with us. We can't wait to return. We want to thank the owners.They are exceptional, they were so nice & they gifted us the supplies to make smores. We really enjoyed their fire pit, and the gas grill, and we cooked several meals there. We can't wait to visit this wonderful lake home again. We have had a wonderful experience. THE BEST!! 🙏

Peaceful place to stay

This is the perfect place to stay away from your regular busy life. Very quiet, beautiful views, marvelous sunset. The cabin has a lot of games for everybody and we loved it. Sue and Tim were very nice and always responsive. Only one inconvenient and it is the trash disposal. You have to take it with you at the end of the stay and the nearest disposal place is 10 minutes away. For the rest, I will go back another time and recommend the stay to my friends.

About the host

Hosted by Sue Yull

My husband and I found this gem of a cottage last year and have spent many weekends here with family and friends. Our boys (12 & 14) have brought their friends to enjoy boating, kayaking, swimming and all around outdoor fun. It's a fantastic spot with some unique benefits, in terms of space and location. We hope you love it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

Our place is ideal for family get-togethers or to simply relax and enjoy the serenity of the lake. We have ample space for 2 or 3 families of 4, with space downstairs for kids to kick off their shoes, play pool, ping pong, play board games, watch a movie or read. We provide clean linens and bath towels and the house is equipped with all the basics you need to make your meals. You won't be disappointed here!

What makes this property unique

The Heron's Cove is a unique property, in that it's located in a large, quiet and protected cove, but still provided stunning views of the main channel. The downstairs provides an excellent space for kids to escape while adults enjoy some quiet time of their own.
