We typically go to Lake Lure and this was our first time here -- we are now converts! Tim and Sue were great to work with and very responsive. Lots of room for family, lots of games, and firepit (and gift s'mores!) were icing on the cake. Will definitely come back.

Our family has been going to Lake Tillery now for almost 10 years. We have stayed at 6 or 7 houses on the lake and always had a great time. However this is by far the nicest of the bunch. The location is prime with a beautiful of the lake from the back porch. The two floors provide a great barrier between older folk wanting a nice quiet evening by the lake an younger people wanting to play games such as ping pong darts... Great Stay!

This home was the 9th rental we have made on Lake Tillery. Herons Cove is by far the best house in the best location (for us) and the Yulls are beyond great to work with. Our vacation was over last week and we have already made our reservation for next year. Clean house, wonderfully appointed and great location. What more could you ask for?

This stay was so wonderful for so many reasons. The home and the dock with all of the “toys” was all that anyone could want. Mornings on the deck were great, and evenings watching the sunset were beautiful. This place has a very special place in our hearts.

Sue and Tim, We had such a wonderful time together at your place. It was as if it was built for us at this stage in our lives and each family member had their own favorite things that they will remember and cherish for many years to come. And meeting the two of you was a big bonus. Hope to see you again soon!! ❤️

We’ve stayed here 4 times now. Teenagers love the basement with pingpong, darts and games. Canoes always get used and fishing off the dock is great! Newly updated firepit area is beautiful!

We rented the lake house to come from Rhode Island and spend some time with our father who was recently diagnosed with stage 4 terminal lung cancer and lives in North Carolina. The house was absolutely beautiful and we are so happy we got to make some new memories here with our father in such a beautiful home and amazing scenery. Our group consisted of 4 adults and 7 children from 5 months to 16 years of age and all enjoyed themselves very much... would love to come back at some point hopefully while my dad is still with us

This beautiful lake house is one of the most wonderful homes we have stayed in. This house has everything a family needs to spend a vacation full of relaxation, fun, and comfort. The house is impeccably clean. The patio and yard, too. Its owners have worked very hard to give the best to their guests. The kitchen is spacious, full of everything you need to cook any meal. The rooms were excellent, and the beds were extremely comfortable and clean. On the lower floor there is a large and spacious game room. My kids had a lot of fun playing on the pool table. They had a blast and they want to return soon. My husband is a fisherman, and he had a great time,too. He fish a lot from the dock. Even a 12-pound catfish. That fish made his trip very memorable. We have our own boat and we brought it with us. We can't wait to return. We want to thank the owners.They are exceptional, they were so nice & they gifted us the supplies to make smores. We really enjoyed their fire pit, and the gas grill, and we cooked several meals there. We can't wait to visit this wonderful lake home again. We have had a wonderful experience. THE BEST!! 🙏

This is the perfect place to stay away from your regular busy life. Very quiet, beautiful views, marvelous sunset. The cabin has a lot of games for everybody and we loved it. Sue and Tim were very nice and always responsive. Only one inconvenient and it is the trash disposal. You have to take it with you at the end of the stay and the nearest disposal place is 10 minutes away. For the rest, I will go back another time and recommend the stay to my friends.

Sue and Tim do a great job

This place checked all the boxes. We initially only used it for winter, cuz the downstairs games room- pool, ping pong, darts, and more kept us plenty busy. And the winter sunset view is superb up the cove. We recently rented (fall) and we're able to get full use of all the water crafts. New fire pit. S'mores! Very professional rental. All you need. One of our favorites!!!!

We stayed at this lovely property to attend a family party nearby. Everything about it was welcoming from the moment we walked in the door. Every need was anticipated and provided for. Information about the functioning of the home was clearly spelled out in the welcome book and made for ease in our stay. Contact with the hosts was prompt and helpful during the booking process, with quick answers to our questions. All manner of games and recreational activities were available. We will be looking forward to our next trip!

We truly enjoyed our stay. The property was well equipped with a everything we needed. Everything was very clean.
I was a little concerned that my granddaughter would be afraid of the moose mounded on the wall. But we told her it was a caribou from the Polar Express movie and that sold her on the moose/caribou.
The property owners were easy to reach.
We enjoyed the nice cool nights and just setting on the dock. Coffee and a sweater nothing could be more relaxing.

My family had a wonderful time. House was very clean and spacious, room for us all. Lots of games and activities for everyone. The lake and dock was awesome for swimming and fishing. We brought our own canoe and kayaks, having the boat house to store them during our visit was nice. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

We love visiting Lake Tillery every year and this house was by far our favorite. The whole family enjoyed swimming off the dock and kids loved going down the slide. Also, we really enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding.

I found myself in the area on business, and the hotels are far and few between where I was going to stay. I asked my co-worker if he was interested in staying on a lake instead of the hotel. This place was awesome, I would love to come back again this time spent a little more time and bring my grandkids.

This was our first family vacation to NC. We had a great time at the Lake House even with it being cold. There was still lots to do inside and we used the fire pit 2 nights that we were there. The last day we did get to try out the canoe. We would definitely love to come back during the summer to take advantage of the lake.

We rented for my daughter's wedding party. There were 2 couples and an additional 8 people 18+. It was a lovely house, everything was as described. I would have loved to stay in the warmer months to take advantage of the lake.

We enjoyed bright sunsets in the quiet cove on a chilly weekend. The downstairs game room was a hit and the house has an abundance of games and DVDs. One day we hiked the lake shore in Morrow Mtn state park and another day made the easy drive to Charlotte for NFL game. The house was clean and well equipped. Fantastic communication with the hosts. Thank you for a great stay!

We’ve stayed at this property last year and it was just as good this year. Plenty of space for all of us. The downstairs with the pool/ping pong table and video games is a favorite of all of my kids. And you can’t be the views. If you want to get away, this is the place.

Everything about the rental was wonderful. Response time from the owners were wonderful. Check in process was very smooth. The house was as written. There were water toys on the property. Fire pit was wonderful for a time to relax and make s’mores. Pool table and ping-pong table was wonderful for family gatherings. Ample parking. Really nothing to complain about.
