Cozy Cabin!

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!

Awesome Property

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.

Great spot

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

Perfect as advertised!

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!

Relaxing on Raystown Lake

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.

Wonderful experience!

Heron’s Cove was a perfect place for our family to stay as our daughter was graduating from Juniata College! The space, both indoor and outdoor, lended itself well to our needs. Over the course of the long weekend, we played on the outdoor court, had fires at the fire pit, walked to the lake, played ping pong and pool, cornhole, and cooked in the well equipped kitchen for the many meals we shared as a family. The bedroom and bathroom spaces were fantastic as well as the huge covered porch and expansive deck! The owners were thoughtful and responsive in helping us set up the trip. They thought of everything in meeting the needs of their guests! We would strongly recommend others to consider and we plan to find another reason to visit Heron’s Cove in the future!

Spacious & Relaxing Getaway

Was impressed with the cleanliness of the home. Not a speck of dust to be seen anywhere. The entire house is well appointed and kitchen is fully stocked with every kind of cooking/baking/utensil you would need. Plenty of space for our family of 5- 2 adults and 3 boys ages 10, 14, 16. Was the perfect quiet sanctuary to return home to after the PSU vs. UofM game. The sports court and ping pong/pool table were a hit with the boys. Owners were pleasant to work with and were professional and organized with their household instructions and information on the surrounding area. Highly recommend this property for families.

Awesome Property for the Family!

This is a wonderful property especially if you have children! The sports court was a game changer! The kitchen has a professional range and is very nicely equipped for cooking for a large family gathering! The house is very well constructed and was very relaxing. The screened in porch was a wonderful place outside when it was raining! The location was great with easy access to boat launches and the marina! We would definitely book this home again for a Raystown lake vacation.
