Every we wanted

Me and my daughter love being outside and nature, it was her spring break and we wanted to get away. We loved everything about The Blue Heron, so peaceful and everyone we came in contact with so nice. We enjoyed fishing, kayaking, and just taking everything in, we got to see rabbits, frogs, deer, geese, and everything kind of bird we could name. The Place was perfect. I have to say I have never slept so well away from home! We will definitely be back! Thank you Blue Heron for giving us such an amazing trip, life time memories and your gracious hospitality!

Gorgeous Relaxing Lakehouse

This was exactly what the listing detailed and more. From the kayaks, to fishing, to blissful reading on the screened in patio, this property and the host were phenomenal. If you need to get away from everything this is a perfect spot for it.

Blue Heron is perfect.

The host thought of everything for our comfort, including snacks. The cottage is super cute, and the porch was fantastic with comfortable couches. The bed, linens, and towels were all high quality. I highly recommend it if you're in the area or looking for a relaxing getaway. It's a beautiful country drive into Lynchburg.

Lake House on Lincoln Lake in Kelso, TN

This home was incredible! The owner really knew what was needed to make it cozy, comfortable, and relaxing! From feather top mattress, to string lights and fans on the porch, to soft blankets that smelled divine, it was just perfect! I highly recommend staying at this cabin as a retreat by yourself with your significant other!
