Wild Heron Escape by Sarah Bernard with Stunning Lake View

Welcome to Wild Heron Escape, a newly renovated and beautifully decorated two bedroom, two bath A-frame chalet tucked away at the edge of Wild Heron Lake. Light filled, with a serene lake view out of the floor to ceiling windows, this chalet is the perfect getaway from the stress of everyday life. The cozy interior makes for a perfect night in front of the fire, and the furnished glass-enclosed sunroom allows for plenty of room to spread out. The wraparound deck, fire pit and private dock create a perfect balance of perfect indoor and outdoor spaces. Fireside or waterside, put your feet up with a good book and relax...

The first floor features a living area with a stone fireplace, a dining area, and a kitchen stocked with all the tools you'll need for preparing meals during your stay. There is a first floor bedroom with a queen sized bed, and a full bathroom. On the second floor, you'll find a loft area with two twin beds, a private bedroom with king sized bed, and a second full bath.

The lakeside dock is a great spot for fishing, reading, and sunning. Or, take advantage of the two kayaks and canoe at the chalet, and enjoy a ride around the lake. During the warmer months, try out the paddle board! Wild Heron Escape is the perfect place to enjoy time away with family or friends. Your dogs are welcome too!

Beautiful location, property was okay
It shows that 6 can sleep there, but be aware, the bathrooms are tiny. The property is pretty and the living room and big windows to the lake are impressive, plus the location is quiet, surrounded by beautiful trees. I had to call for maintenance while I was there (broken toilet seat) & it looks like regular cleaning/maintenance isn't at a 5 star level. No dish towels in the kitchen & if you want to do a lot of cooking, you'll want to clean the stove top first and also check to make sure you have what you need because the kitchen is sparsely appointed & the ice maker was not hooked up. The dining room table top was not clean, evidently someone had been using Pledge or something similar over and over and after wiping it down with a damp towel, that came away with noticeable dirt, and the table top was still "sticky". Very unpleasant. Bring a copy of your "security document" to gain entrance. I didn't have that with me & it took calling the management company to get past the gate.

Maybe spray for bugs?
Overall this place was just what we needed. The Lily Pad was a big hit. However, there was a small insect issue that made it difficult for my daughter and I to sleep well. We had very small bugs crawling on us at night. A little disconcerting. Also, the lower level mattress and pillows could use an upgrade.

Nice weekend getaway
We had a great weekend, the weather was beautiful. Sarah B. group was wonderful. The gentleman working the guard station at Innsbrook said he didn't have our reservation, which in the end he was looking at the incorrect house number despite us giving him the correct one. I paid for early check-in and we wasted an hour of it while he was trying to find our reservation. The unit was decorated nicely and had everything we needed to cook for the weekend. Unfortunately, there was some type of bugs on top of all the beds, more on the loft twin beds. Lots of cobwebs in the light fixtures, I don't believe the cleaning lady has cleaned in a long time. We only noticed at night when the lights were on. I would recommend a deep bug spray of the property. Overall, we had a wonderful time and enjoyed the surroundings.

We ended up staying in a a different property than what we chose online due to some issues at check in. I called the after hours number and we were taken care of in less than 10 minutes with directions to a new available property! It was a beautiful chalet and we had a relaxing weekend! Sarah Bernard Chalets does not disappoint. This is our 2nd year of booking one of their properties and will continue to do so!

Loved this property. Secluded with lots of privacy. Loved the kayaks and paddle boat and also lily pad jumping mat for kids. We had a campfire, bbq’d, fished and went to the beach on day. It was nice that lots of lake toys were provided as well as beach towels. Thanks for a great stay!

Getaway
The lake was lovely and the house was small, but very satisfactory for four adults, although the TV did not work and we all wanted to watch the Olympics, so that was a bummer. I left a list of 4 things that I felt needed attention. One was the upstairs toliet seat which was unstable. The TV was another. I can not now remember the two others. I would suggest directions for working the TV--we just didn 't have any. We left the key in the house but locked the doors, and reported that to the person at the gate.

Charming Chalet
This Waterfront A-Frame is the perfect spot. We just loved the beautiful stone fireplace and bright modern feel of the place. It has everything you need, with a very well equipped kitchen, plenty of blankets, pillows and towels and lots of fun water toys. You are removed from your neighbors, but part of a lovely community with swimming pools, stables, a restaurant, etc.

Great pandemic get away
Our trip to Innsbrook was all we could have asked for and then some. Not only did we experience all four seasons (including snow) in April; the chalet provided us with plenty to do through it all. The property was beautiful with blooming dogwoods everywhere. The chalet was well stocked, nicely decorated, and roomy enough for everyone to do their own thing. The fishing was a real bonus.

Beautiful chalet on a lake
We had a great stay at this beautiful chalet on a lake. It was our first time to Innsbruck. The chalet was very comfortable and cozy. The lake was perfect. The kids loved canoeing and kayaking; making s'mores over the fire at night was perfect. We will plan to come again to this or another one of your properties availability permitting.
