We loved staying at Heron's Rest! We are a family of 7 adults plus 1 dog, and everyone had a blast. The house was just right for us and everything was clean and in good working order. The walk to/from the lake and the house is a bit steep, but it's not a problem as long as you are in reasonably good shape. The dock was one of our favorite places, as there are plenty of chairs and a canoe to enjoy. We also used it for docking a jet ski and pontoon boat that we rented, as well as for launching ourselves into our inflatables and doing some leisurely floating around. We also took advantage of the fire pit to roast marshmallows and make s'mores. We only wish we could have stayed longer.
