About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Heron Pointe... where nature and luxury combine for an unforgettable experience!

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. You might even catch a glimpse of our stealthy blue heron.

Luxuriously comfortable furnishings, a wood burning stove, and a 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!

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 or deck fire pit or build a true campfire in our campfire circle. Plenty of complementary firewood ...it's all here for you to enjoy!
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Great stay
We really enjoyed our stay while in town visiting family. Carol goes out of her way to make you feel welcome and was very responsive to questions, including restaurant recommendations. We had our dogs with us, so very much enjoyed the large yard and the multiple walking trails that have been created around the property. During our stay, we also toured to the Motown Museum, so just adding a plug for that as we REALLY enjoyed it. Thanks again, Carol, for a great stay and all the hospitality!

Nature Getaway
The main purpose for our stay was to have access to the beautiful 8 private acres of land to walk with our dog off leash. And we were not disappointed. The grounds are beautiful and the trails are easy to walk. My dog enjoyed the large pond and running around. Every thoughtful detail is attended to by the owner Carol. She is a warm and friendly person and even returned something we forgot there to our house which is 30 minutes away from her! Outside on the deck there is some road noise in the summer.

Loved our stay at Heron Pointe
From the moment we walked in, we were so happy we chose Heron Pointe. The house was beautifully decorated, clean and welcoming. There were fresh flowers and a breakfast treat in the refrigerator. The yard was big, private and a great place to relax...a grill to cook out on and a pond to fish in. Trails to walk. Our hosts were so kind to us and supplied all our needs and more. Can't thank them enough. We already look forward to our next visit. Highly recommend Heron Pointe!!

Longstay Away...AKA Tripp Family Christmas House
OMGoodness we had a WONDERFUL time! We have been renting using VRBO for about 15years now and have had some LOVELY stays. Even still, we've never had as thoughtful and gracious a host as Carol! We felt so comfortable! The beds were comfy, the home was WELL stocked, the property was delightful (even in winter), I can not think of one thing I would have felt needed improvement. The great room layout was ideal for our large family to gather and not feel cramped. Carol & Pete...thank you ,thank you, thank you from Kim 7 Brad and family!!
