About this property

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 or relax with a beverage by our pond waterfall. You might even catch a glimpse of our stealthy blue heron.

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

While there is plenty to do right on the property (a library of interesting books, DVD's, family games and puzzles, a big screen TV with complimentary premium channels, a ROKU stick, and very fast internet) Alpine Valley Ski resort is only 5 minutes away.

In addition, six beautiful metro parks are just minutes away by car and there are a variety of restaurants to enjoy from casual to fine dining. The movie theater is just 10 minutes away. You will also have access to our neighborhood all-sports lake with a playground for the little kids and volleyball and basketball for the bigger ones.

Quaint and interesting towns such as Milford, Holly (birth place of Prohibition!) Hartland and Highland offer fun shopping and dining. In the fall, visit Long's cider mill in Commerce and load up on their delicious piping hot donuts!

Back 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/cigar bar/fire pit area or the deck fire pit or build a true campfire in our campfire circle in the woods. Plenty of complementary firewood ...it's all here and more... for you to enjoy!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Carol Ewing

Host profile image
Pete and I bought the cottage and land that is contiguous to our home and other property in 2007 and then another private lot in 2019 and did extensive renovations to make it a super comfy and relaxing retreat. Originally planned as over-flow lodging for our family and friends, we realized that the guest house was truly a unique place, that we were blessed to be the stewards of this land and that we wanted to share it with others. And ta-da ...Heron Pointe was established and opened for business in 2009!

Since then we have continually added and upgraded the property and its amenities. We invite you to check us out! It would be our honor and pleasure to have you as our guests.

Why they chose this property

Many of our guests have told us there is just something magical about spending time in this guest house. The 8 private acre "estate" with a pond, gardens, acres of lawn, a huge organic fenced vegetable and herb garden, woods meadowlands and a waterfall offer something truly unique and special, with a feeling of peace, tranquility and healing permeating everywhere! A true private back to nature experience.

That is a lot to live up to and we have spared no expense to make sure our furnishings and offerings are all top notch and comfortable, cozy and of course, immaculately clean.

We clean, scrub, disinfect and sanitize following all CDC recommendations and because we only allow one group of 5 people at a time, we were offering "sheltering in place" long before it became a "thing!" Our guests' comfort, health and safety are always top of mind at Heron Pointe.



What makes this property unique

With about 7 1/2 acres of woods, gardens, lawn, wetlands, meadow lands, a huge organic garden open to our guests and the pond, Heron Pointe offers a bio-diverse and super private natural setting that offers luxury, comfort, restorative sanctuary and fun!
