Really enjoyed our stay. Plenty of room inside and outside. Sports court was great and we really enjoyed using the grill and spending time on the screened in porch
We stayed with our family and enjoyed our time. Very spacious place and mostly clean. A few things were missing but nothing too bad. Home owner was responsive if i had any questions. We had everything we needed. Most definitely coming back.
This home is absolutely perfect! We enjoyed many hours on the outdoor sports court and found the home and sleeping arrangements to be very cozy and comfortable as well. 10/10 - we would definitely stay here again!
We stayed for a few nights with family and friends. It was clean, and had plenty of things on site to do.
Had a great time for a first experience.
Anything we needed, the host took care for us.
Would recommend this place!
Thank you for having us!
This is a great location by Raystown Lake. It’s close to the trails for mountain biking which we went to do as well as getting to seven points Marina and then back into Huntington for shopping. The teens and kids really like the basketball/tennis/pickleball set up as well as the ping-pong and billiards in the basement, if it’s available we will be back
The property couldn't have been better. That includes the home, the amenities and the location. It is close to so many different activities, as well as, the necessities. Wouldn't hesitate to stay there again!
Herons Cove is EXACTLY how it appears! Very clean, spacious, private and cozy! Chris was the PERFECT host! He was very accommodating when we learned that our original booking for our traditional family Penn State game weekend had been sold. We met him upon arrival as he was blowing the leaves off of the driveway and basketball court for us. He went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. A chilled bottle of wine greeted us as we entered the property. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Herons Cove with all of its amenities! We will most definitely return!
Beautiful log home with great amenities including sports court. Close to Raystown Lake. Home is very clean. Bedrooms and bunkroom provide enough beds for all guests.
I stayed here with 7 other adults in my family. The house is amazing and there was a lot of room for everyone. The kitchen had everything and more to make family meals along with a great grill we used three times during our week stay. The game room got a lot of use and the sports complex was awesome. The host was so quick to respond on the few questions I had. I highly recommend this beautiful home away from home at our favorite lake in the world!
First time in Raystown Lake area and we already want to go back! The house is as described, with the sports court being a huge bonus to have on-site outdoor activities for us all. Lake access close to the house (short drive and walk) was also very wonderful. Chris was there to personally check us in and show us the house. Not sure if that is normal, but it was appreciated.
Cozy lodge with everything we needed for a quick getaway with family. Beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces to relax. The sports court was the definite highlight for the kids.
This is the 4th time that we have stayed at this property. The accommodations have been A+ each time. The property owners have thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable. There are lots of games, puzzles, videos, and a ping pong table to entertain everyone. The sports court includes balls, rackets, etc. The clean bed linens were in sealed plastic bags. The kitchen has pots and pans, dishes, utensils, appliances,etc.
As advertised! Great property, sports court was exceptional, kids and adults loved it. Accessibility to 7 Points Marina and Huntingdon is ideal. . .
