About this property

The Green Heron Cottage is close to Auburn, AL, Columbus, GA & Pine Mountain, GA

A modern, newly built (2023) 3 bd/2 ba cottage offers everything you need for a relaxing getaway. It sits at the top of our 4.5 acre property with great views overlooking the lake and cove sides of the property. Enjoy your private yard with a cozy fire pit & relaxing hammock, perfect for evenings under the stars. You’ll have shared access to a beautiful beach, kayaks for lake adventures & fishing opportunities. The primary bedroom has a king size bed, the second bedroom has a king size bed and can be used as a secondary primary bedroom as it also has its own private access to the covered porch. The third bedroom has a super comfortable queen size bed plus there is a fold out couch in the living room for extra guests.

Need less space or more beds? Check out our nearby Blue Heron Guesthouse , 2bd/1ba just 30 yards away, offering the same great amenities and serene surroundings. The Blue Heron and Green Heron can be rented individually or together for a larger gathering.

If the weather is less than ideal, enjoy some sports or movies with YouTube TV and Disney Plus, and free wi-fi or play one of the many board or card games that are available. The kitchen is ideal with a dishwasher, microwave, oven, stove top and refrigerator as well as a full kitchen including pots, pans, blender and more. The dining room accommodates 8 and after a day on the lake come back to a spacious comfortable living room with fantastic water views or choose to grill and chill with the gas grill and covered outdoor dining area also with an awesome water view.

The outdoor space is the key to the home and makes this the perfect lake retreat! If you want to fish or just watch the sunset, enjoy the shared long pier with a gazebo and floating dock to tie up your water toys. You don’t even have to find a boat launch, just use the one on the property to start your lake fun. If you just want to relax, enjoy the shared sandy beach with a swimming area or just lounge away soaking up the sun. If you just want to hang out in the shade and read a book or take a nap, jump into the hammock and just relax or sit at the covered picnic table and enjoy food and the lake views. Top the evening off, by having a bonfire in the fire pit area making s’mores and memories.

About the host

Hosted by Howard

Host profile image
We are a retired military family who have traveled around the world but would rather be at Lake Harding enjoying the lake life and love sharing it with our guests.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property due to it's size (4 1/2acres) as well as it's scenic views and peaceful surroundings. The Green Heron sits up on a slight hill with great 270 degree views of open water and a cove in the back. It's still a gentle walk to be in the water as well as the shared access to the pier, beach and boat ramp.

What makes this property unique

While staying at the Green Heron Cottage, guests are able to share access to our pier, beach, and boat ramp. A floating dock and pier are also available for your use so bring your fishing pole or we have some for you to use, just need your Alabama or Georgia fishing license. Available for your free use are several kayaks including a tandem kayak, paddle boat, paddle board and various sizes of life vests. Only the specific guests noted in the booking are allowed on the premises without prior approval from the host.
