We enjoyed this place so much and can’t wait to return. The inside is pretty and decorated beautifully. The beds are super comfortable, the kitchen is equipped, two nice bathrooms with good size showers. The fireplace in the dining area was my favorite place to sit and have coffee. We went fishing on the private dock and enjoyed the fire pit. If you’re in the area this is where you should stay hands down.

The family loved the quiet cove that the Bungalow is situated on! Great fishing and wildlife opportunities. The children were ecstatic at catching their first fish of the fall season. Everyone enjoyed kayaking around the cove to watch the wildlife. We also enjoyed sitting out on the back dining deck for meals and family game time!

Dock, view, and swimming were amazing! Quiet neighborhood as well. Being able to take our dog was a huge plus! There were some concerns with regard to cleanliness, but I talked directly with the hosts and they are addressing those things. Communication with hosts was great.

Great Stay

We had a fun time here with our family. This little home is very nice and was equipped with everything we needed. The beds were VERY comfortable. Our hosts were welcoming and easy to communicate with. The lake view is beautiful, lots of seating outside to enjoy it. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking to stay in this area, we would book again!

Comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, but what we loved most was the dock! We watched wildlife, fished and played cards rain or shine on the dock. Plus there was a ramp into the shallow water, which our Labrador retriever took full advantage of!

Cozy Home on The Lake

Me and my family enjoyed our stay at The Blue Heron Bungalow, the location and the amenities of the home were perfect. Communication with the owner was prompt and the checkin process was simple. We really enjoyed hanging out on the dock and floating in the lake near the dock. We will definitely be back.

Lake life is the best

My family and I could get used to waking up and having coffee on the dock every morning while watching bald eagles catch fish out of one of the most peaceful coves in the lake. The house was cozy and we enjoyed the fire pit. Can't wait to come back!

Wonderful time

We had an amazing stay at the Blue Heron Bungalow. Perfect location. The cove is one of the best on Lake Tillery and you are far back enough to avoid boat traffic. Dock was great and able to fit the boat nicely. Will definitely stay again.

This spot was perfect for a last-minute mother-daughter getaway! We found it to be adequately stocked with necessities and exceptionally clean. It's located on a quiet cove not too far from the main road, so there is easy access to the main roads. The hosts' communication was top-notch, and we couldn't have had a better weekend. I can definitely see us returning!

Memorial Day Weekend

We had a great time at the Blue Heron Bungalow for a couple nights. The house was super clean and the hosts were very accommodating! The cove is very quiet and we enjoyed taking the kayaks out & being able to keep our boat there to go out on the lake as well. Being pet-friendly was a big plus! Thanks for a great couple days on the lake!

Cute Cottage on Great Part of Lake

Two couples and one son attending the Uwharrie Jeep Jamboree stayed for the long weekend. Wive's got to enjoy the lake and vicinity while we jeeped in the National Forest. Perfect home to stay for all to have a good time. Place was spotless, beds were comfy, all necessary items provided. Great communications with owner. Couldn't recommend more highly!
