“We had a wonderful time at this home. The house is lovely and everything is high-quality. Kitchen is amazingly well stocked. The house is right on a path that can take you either to the creek or the lake which we enjoyed on our morning walks. It’s not far from town and we enjoyed being out in a more rural area. It’s also close to many wineries. I would highly recommend the place.”
Welcome to Heron House! Because beautiful Mill Creek borders our property, this house is close to great blue heron rookeries. Nearby trees hold the twiggy nests of several pairs. Mill Creek offers you a 1.5 mile, paved, recreation trail leading to 20 miles of dog-friendly unpaved trails open to hiking, biking, and horseback riding.
Adjacent to our property is Rooks Park, an eighteen-acre developed park with large grassy areas, picnic sites, a playground, horseshoe pit, and volleyball court. Less than 10 minutes from the park, you'll find Bennington Lake, the only public lake in our valley. It's stocked with rainbow trout throughout the spring months.
Within the house, our themed rooms range from the main floor "Pug Room" and "Paisley Room," to the second floor, "Let ‘Er Buck Room," a tribute to the Pendleton Roundup, the "Emily Dickinson Room," and the "Rose Room." You'll find guest robes and slippers in every room.
Our kitchen is fully appointed for meal preparation and serving in the formal dining room or casually around the large island. Morning coffee in the sunroom often provides a glimpse of local wildlife, including deer, fox, quail, pheasant, and the tall, angular heron.
Outside, the backyard patio features a barbecue grill and outdoor seating for ten guests.
