    breathtaking views
    outdoor swimming pool

    The views from our King Room with Lake View were absolutely breathtaking, especially from our private balcony where we soaked in the sunset. The outdoor heated swimming pool was our daily escape, and we loved lounging by the sun terrace. Plus, the staff went above and beyond, making us feel truly special throughout our stay!

    bathroom maintenance

    Loved spending time relaxing on the balcony with a stunning lake view and enjoying the delicious homemade breakfast spread. The pool area and outdoor bar were great spots to unwind and have fun. The only tiny concern was the bathroom needing a bit of touch-up, but it didn’t ruin our overall experience! 😊

    The Blue Heron Inn provided stunning views of the lake and lovely balconies that were easy to access, making it perfect for us seniors. The staff was attentive, ensuring our comfort throughout our stay.

    More comfortable chairs in common areas would be nice.

    I had an amazing stay! The cozy room featured a jacuzzi and a fantastic view of the lake. Breakfast was superb, with delicious egg sandwiches and fruit. A highlight was the live music by the tiki bar. such a fun atmosphere! I would absolutely come back again.

    breathtaking views
    great pool
    nice activities
    long check-in wait

    We had such a fun getaway with friends! The views were killer, especially from our room. Definitely check out Legacy Hills Golf Club and Ambler Flatwoods Nature Preserve if you're looking for things to do. The pool was a great spot to chill, just a heads up that the shower can be a bit tricky to use.

    One thing that was a bit annoying was that when we checked in, it took a long time for someone to arrive at the front desk. We had to wait around 20 minutes, which was frustrating.

    I had such a great experience! The heated pool was awesome and the breakfast spread was to die for, especially the homemade eggs and sausage. I definitely want to come back!

    lake view
    helpful staff
    worn carpets
    limited breakfast

    I had a nice time staying by the lake. The room was clean and the staff was helpful. I even enjoyed a meal from the on-site restaurant while admiring the view. It reminded me of my travels through Italy, finding spots that offer both comfort and charm.

    The facilities could use some updates. The carpets felt worn and there was a slight odor in the room. The breakfast options were limited and could be improved.

    lake view
    breakfast spread
    pleasant walkways
    worn carpets
    noisy hvac

    The view of the lake from the King Room is a real charmer, complete with pleasant walkways for a stroll by the water. The breakfast spread included scrambled eggs, sausage, waffles, and yogurt, making mornings enjoyable even if it lacked some fresh fruit.

    Some facilities could use a bit of love. the carpets feel worn, and the odor in the room was noticeable. The beds were lumpy, which made for a less-than-great night’s sleep, and the HVAC system was noisy enough to be a distraction. Additionally, the bathroom seemed to need more attention to detail with only one hand towel provided—a bit lacking for a multi-night stay.

    friendly staff
    lakeside charm

    One of the best experiences was the hot breakfast, I mean, real scrambled eggs with mushrooms and cheese that actually taste like eggs! ! The staff was friendly and checked in on us often, always making sure we were okay and if we needed anything.

    It wasn’t inexpensive, but still pretty acceptable considering the experience.

    breathtaking view
    great staff
    plumbing issue
    unreliable pontoon
    missed dinner

    The view from the room with the lake was breathtaking, providing the perfect backdrop for relaxing moments. Fishing right off the porch brought in plenty of bluegill and crappie, creating memorable experiences every day. Despite facing a plumbing issue that required a room change, the staff handled it gracefully, going above and beyond to ensure our comfort. One downside was the pontoon boat's motor. it could really use an upgrade for a smoother experience on the water.

    delicious meals
    noise from hallway
    no issues

    Our family had a wonderful stay at The Blue Heron Inn! The room had a cozy layout with a lake view that my kids loved. We appreciated the friendly staff who made us feel at home and the on-site restaurant served delicious meals. The pool area was a hit with our little ones, and the lakeside setting was simply perfect for family bonding.

    A bit noisy at times from the hallway.

    Our stay by the lake was beautiful and relaxing. The room had a nice view, and the restaurant served delicious food. We enjoyed fishing from the dock and exploring the surrounding area. The tiki bar was great for a quick bite after some fun on the water.

    My wife says that the pontoon rental needs anchors for better fishing.
