Heron's Perch - Corey Lakehouse with private dock and kayaks

Bring your family and friends to Heron's Perch for a perfect #CoreyLakecation! This 3 bedroom 2 bath house sits on a large waterfront lot. Here, you will feel fully immersed in nature, yet Meijer and other modern conveniences are just 10 mins away.
Come hang out on the deck or in the lake - swimming, boating, fishing, and simply enjoying lake views. Visit the Corey Lake Orchard less than a mile away. Take a day trip to South Bend or Shipshewana. Hit the Swiss Valley ski slope.

The house has everything you need for a perfect lakeside vacation!

The 3 bedrooms sleep 6 comfortably, and the upstairs master en-suite features a king bed, a large bathroom and its own soaking tub. The first floor bedroom has a queen, and the loft bedroom has full and twin beds. The walkout basement becomes an additional sleeping area when the two sofas pull out into full size beds.

The house has large outdoor areas for all sorts of fun. Launch your boat at the Marina and park it directly at our dock for easy access to the lake. We have two docks on property, including one with a boat lift. The no-wake channel is quiet and safe for swimming. We have a picnic table under a covered gazebo and there is an additional folding table and chairs you can set out. Next to the gazebo, there is also a fire ring for you to enjoy.

For those who prefers to stay inside, the house features a spacious kitchen well stocked to serve your cooking needs. You can hang out in a few different areas - living room, basement, dining room, and loft. Play one of our family friendly games, do puzzles, or read a book. There are two Roku TVs with Disney+, ESPN, and Hulu provided for family movie nights, or you can sign in to your own subscription. The house is also outfitted with high speed internet with a mesh network to ensure good receptivity around the house, as well as a desk for those who might need to get some work done.

We recommend 8 adults or 10 people if there are children to stay here! Unfortunately, the house is not really set up for anyone with mobility challenges - the house has 3 floors and the way down to the lake involves many stairs.

Pets welcome!

If you need to book for more than 28 days, please message us directly and we will see what we can do.

House inside was nice. Layout allowed for privacy. Wasps were not gone. Host did not respond to message regarding this. The outside of the house needs attention. The deck has soft boards and house needs a good power washing. Many cobwebs and green mildew. This house is on a very small inlet to the lake that is covered in algae. Would not swim here. Kayaking through the algae would not be very pleasant. Overall okay but disappointed to not get any response from host on outstanding wasp issue.

Corey Lake House Review
We recently stayed at Heron’s Perch- Corey Lake House and appreciated several aspects of our visit, including the location and space for our shared families. However, we did encounter a significant issue during our stay that we feel is important to share. There was a noticeable pest problem (hornets-wasps nests) that affected our comfort. Unfortunately, when we brought this to the host’s attention, the problem couldn’t be treated during our stay- impacting the full duration. When we communicated with the host about a resolution for our vacation, the response was more emotional than constructive, and we didn’t feel the issue was addressed appropriately. This was disappointing, as we had hoped for a more professional and solution-oriented approach. We understand that maintaining a property can be challenging, but we hope this feedback helps the host improve future guests’ experiences. Overall, while there were positive elements to our stay, this particular issue impacted our overall experience.

Very spacious and clean
We had eight adults in our group, and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and enjoy themselves. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed to cook indoors, and we used the outdoor grill and picnic table as well. The dock was large enough to accommodate our rented pontoon boat. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay here again!

Fall Weekend
Beds were super comfortable! We had three families and three teenage boys. Kids had a hang out spot in the basement while the adults had the upstairs. Everything was clean and ready for our stay. Nice grill and outdoor eating area. Relatively quite area. Wish we had the boat with us to check out the lake but we were there for kids sports.

Immaculate Home with Character & Comfort
The A-Frame on the Lake is a lovely home in a quiet and private setting. There is plenty of space to be together and to be separate. We loved the outdoor space to grill, talk and relax. We loved the quiet and separate sleeping quarters where everyone had their own space. The master bedroom is a haven unto itself. We were impressed with the charming and updated decor; a lovely surprise for the eyes in each room, and everything in perfect working order, including the Wi-Fi. We had 2 people working online and two college students working on class work and zoom calls, plus 5 phones. Not one hiccup! Meijer and Starbucks are 10 minutes away and a few different golf courses nearby. 45 minutes to Shipshewana; an hour and ten to St. Joe’s. Duncan’s Charters in St. Joe’s for Deep Lake Fishing and Sunset Cruises we’re awesome. Thank you for opening and sharing your house with us. It was so relaxing and exactly what we needed before the kids are all off to college, and we become empty nesters! Highly recommend this home for retreats, R&R and adventure for families, groups and individuals!

Perfect house for a family getaway!
This house was the perfect size for my family of 7. The home was spacious, clean, and welcoming. The host was easy to communicate with and was very accommodating. Beautiful view in the backyard with a quick float into the lake. I highly recommend staying here!
