Welcome to Heron Hideaway!

Heron Hideaway makes for the ideal family vacation getaway. Only 6 miles to Wilkesboro and 25 miles to Boone make it a convenient destination near shopping and restaurants and less than a half-hour to all the High Country offers.

Activities such as water skiing, fishing, paddling, swimming, and cruising Kerr Scott Lake are yours to enjoy at Heron Hideaway! Foothills Outdoor Adventures is less than 5 miles away, and they provide rentals for tubing, canoeing, paddle boarding, pontoon boats, and more. Bring your boat or arrange for delivery of a rental from the nearby marina. Heron Hideaway also offers a hot tub and pool table. The floating dock at the end of an outdoor stairway provides deep water access, kayaks for guest use, and plenty of room to hang out in the sunshine! This private, wooded frontage on Kerr Scott Lake makes this a memorable family waterfront vacation!

Enjoy stunning views from the sunroom that boasts a large dining table, rocking chairs, and comfortable seating. The lake view also frames the hot tub and gas grill on the back deck. The open kitchen has plenty of space with granite countertops for convenience when making meals for your party. There is a king bedroom on the main floor with a private bathroom, two upstairs sleeping areas sharing a jack-and-jill bathroom, and two twin beds in the lower level common area, including a TV, a couch, games, and the pool table.

Life jackets for all ages are supplied in the lower level closet, along with an inflatable SUP and ROC backpack with a pump and instructions.

Nice getaway
Our family enjoyed the beautiful views from the sunroom and the quiet getaway. There was plenty of activities to keep the teens occupied. We enjoyed nearby mountain bike trails, games provided at the home, local dining and donuts. We left feeling very relaxed, and we would definitely stay again.
