What a wonderful place to stay, the location is perfect if you are looking for a peaceful stay over looking a large lake. Our room was great, comfy bed and had its own sitting room so plenty of space to relax. The staff were so friendly and I really felt nothing would have been too much to if we asked. We didn't book a table for the evening but they made sure one was free for us.
We are already planning on going back.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
My 5th or 6th stay here as I use it for work trips. It is always nice. The food is good, the location is good and the rooms are nice. What else could you want.
Great couple of nights away, very scenic, and short drives to nearby attractions. Resturant & staff are friendly and helpful. I would recommend to others.
72 working nights away over the past twelve months, don't normally leave reviews.
The standards here, however, are truly exceptional and deserve recognition. Definitely worth a visit.
Food, lodgings and staff were all incredible. If I return I would request a room on the other side of the property as the generator noise kept me up at night
Really enjoyed our stay in Heron Lodge. Staff were friendly, lodge was clean and quiet and bed was comfortable. We also had a lovely meal in the restaurant.
Stayed for 1 night on a last minute getaway. Lovely location - the water is beautiful. Great food, incredible rooms & bed and lovely staff. Would stay again
