Stayed with family for the “it’s a wonderful life” festival. Nice location 15 mins from scenca falls. House slightly dirty, ants, mouse droppings. But to be expected that far in the country! Would recommend the festival!!

Overall property was okay. Beautiful view! House needs some TLC. It leans toward the lake, beds too soft, better cleaning (spiders), house smells musty.

Heron house offers gorgeous sunsets, beautiful mornings and lots of watery fun on a little beach. You’ll also enjoy walking on the country roads nearby and many other fresh air activities. The kitchen is big enough for many people to crowd into to make a communal meal. The yard is completely fenced so our dogs were able to stay confined and safe. We had a fabulous visit.

Nice location, quiet nook in residential area. House is arranged nicely, but needs update/renovation like screens had some holes, shower head on first floor bathroom not functioning. Also listing prior to booking should indicate strict policy for “day” guests, as max occupancy listed as 8 includes day guests that the rental company needs full disclosure of total number of day guests, their names/ ages, date and time of their visit; I think a bit over intrusive to say the least- took the fun out of just trying to have a relaxing time with family members.
