Great place for our family of 11!

We enjoyed this home, we spent our days down by the water kayaking, relaxing in our floats, the kids could go out to the water from the beach area and fish off the dock. The owner kept in touch making sure we had a great stay. We hope to return year after next (we have a family trip to Ireland next year.) This is a great place to stay!

Great Place for Families

This was a great house for a large group. We had 3 families vacation together and there was plenty of space to accommodate everyone! The location is quiet with the cove that was perfect for the kids to swim, fish and play in. Lots of memories created and looking forward to creating many more!

Wonderful, spacious property. Plenty of room for my entire family. Loved all the decks on the back of the house. It was nice and clean when we got there. We enjoyed using the hot tub. Communication with the owner was excellent. He answered every question we had and made the trip perfect.

Large lovely home in short cove off main lake

We had a wonderful week at this large home with plenty of space for all to spread out, fully stocked kitchen, great double decker boathouse with beach and kayaks, and comfortable beds and furniture. The screened-in porch was an added plus. It's on a short cove within a kayak ride of the main lake...perfect! Monte was available whenever we had a question...the most responsive host we've had; thank you! Highly recommend this property. Felt like home.

Family Vacation at Lake Gaston

We couldn't have picked a better home for our first trip to Lake Gaston. The Blue Heron is perfect for large groups with kids and was one of the cleanest and well stocked rentals my family has ever stayed at. We enjoyed the large kitchen and spacious living areas for our group of 12 to spread out. The kids especially appreciated all of the games, toys, and floats that came with the house. The weather was exceptionally hot, so we basically lived in the water all week, swimming and floating from the dock and beach for hours on end. The owner is very responsive and ensured we had a smooth (and early!) check-in.

Beautiful Location & Home, Family Friendly, Amazing Owners!

The location was perfect, a quiet little piece of heaven with its own private mini beach, yet still connected to the main lake. With the mini beach, boat house, multitude of decks and screened in porch, Kayaks/SPB, hot tub, and closet full of toys for the littles, there was something for everyone. The multiple kitchens, dining areas, and spacious living rooms made it easy for us to share this space with friends/family without feeling like we were on top of each other the whole time! And we could not have asked for better hosts. Monty went out of his way to make sure we were all comfortable and

Awesome Family Vacation Spot

We had the best time during our week long stay at the Blue Heron celebrating our son’s high school graduation with all of the grandparents. So many memories made! We did not want to leave. The place is very clean, comfortable and nice and roomy. It is at a great location. Our dogs loved swimming at the beach and we loved hanging out at the boat dock. We felt right at home and anything we forgot to bring we found supplied at the house by Monty and Wanda. They are great hosts and provide a stress free stay. Highly recommend! Thanks for the memories!

Nice lake getaway

13 of us descended upon the property, which was big enough for Everyone have their own bed. The house is big with lots of space for eating round tables and to sit around and talk. The screened porch is nice and there is also a large deck. The boathouse provided shade and a place to jump into the lake. The lake. Itself is very clean. The little Cove that we stayed in was right off of the main lake at the 1st mile marker we rented a pontoon for a couple of days and had fun scouting out the lake. There are lots of houses on this lake and the neighbors Are very close to the house. Fortunately, no one was in those homes while we were staying there so we had a measure of privacy. Homeowner provided lots of water toys for the kids to have fun with.

Fantastic home, in a quiet place on the lake, offering a fun and relaxing stay

I'm not sure you could find a better experience on the lake than the Blue Heron! There is way more room here than you will need for your large family getaway. The house has a wonderful walk-in beach, an astounding main-lake cover dock which is great for fishing, a hot tub for relaxing, fire pit for roasting your marshmallows and peace and quiet like nowhere else on the lake. The house is fully stocked with all the appliances, utensils and dishes you could want.
