About this cottage rental
Relax and unwind in this charming completely redecorated 40's style cottage on 8 totally private and secluded wooded acres. Stroll the grounds, try a cast or two from the bridge overlooking our peaceful private stocked pond...or take a serene walk through the woods or relax with a beverage by our pond waterfall. You might even catch a glimpse of our stealthy blue heron.
Luxuriously comfortable furnishings, a wood burning stove, and a very nicely appointed kitchen plus many thoughtful touches not usually found in a rental, create a welcome retreat to let the cares of everyday life melt away. Think of Heron Pointe not just as a "rental." It's your exceptional home away from home!
While there is plenty to do right on the property (a library of interesting books, DVD's, family games and puzzles, a big screen TV with complimentary premium channels, a ROKU stick, and very fast internet) Alpine Valley Ski resort is only 5 minutes away.
In addition, six beautiful metro parks are just minutes away by car and there are a variety of restaurants to enjoy from casual to fine dining. The movie theater is just 10 minutes away. You will also have access to our neighborhood all-sports lake with a playground for the little kids and volleyball and basketball for the bigger ones.
Quaint and interesting towns such as Milford, Holly (birth place of Prohibition!) Hartland and Highland offer fun shopping and dining. In the fall, visit Long's cider mill in Commerce and load up on their delicious piping hot donuts!
Back home, sun or have coffee on the back deck in total privacy with just the squirrels and the songbirds to keep you company. After sunset, star gaze with the one you love, cozy up in our large organic garden/cigar bar/fire pit area or the deck fire pit or build a true campfire in our campfire circle in the woods. Plenty of complementary firewood ...it's all here and more... for you to enjoy!

This property was AMAZING! Carol was the best host ever. Everything felt very luxurious, the kitchen was well stocked. Every guest was comfortable on every level. I wholeheartedly recommend staying with Carol. She treats everyone with kindness and respect. Carol was extremely helpful and easy to communicate with. Every detail was addressed to make our stay most enjoyable!

There is absolutely nothing that could be improved. The description is spot on, except for the added touches you find everywhere.
If you want privacy and pampering, this is the spot. Our dog loved lying on the deck or walking all the paths. Such cute seating options!
walking thr paths too.

Carol Ewing gets A++++++ on every rating scale possible. Matt & I stayed at the Heron Pointe VRBO July1-August 15, 2024. The accommodations were excellent. Carol's hospitality was above and beyond. Carol was exceptional to communicate with and to turn to for any concerns or questions that needed to be answered. My husband loves to stream movies. Direct Tv was provided, but Carol went out and immediately ordered ROKO so that my Husband's streaming favorites were able to be enjoyed after a busy day (10:00am-7:30pm) doing childcare for our 1st & only grandbaby that had just been born. (We came back home to Michigan.... to be just 6 miles from our only son and his wife with our new grandson.) We had a blessed time staying Carol's Little Piece of Heaven at Heron Pointe. No one should miss out on this wonderful guest house on her pond in White Lake Michigan. Carol has become a new friend. I hope I am fortunate enough to always be able to stay in Carol's lovely guest home. Beautifully decorated and every amenity you could ever imagine will be provided during your memorable stay!
