Great stay
Had a wonderful weekend with relaxing views. Transparency on the pet charges on site is needed as we had to pay extra for pets upon check in that was not stated. Otherwise, was a great place to stay!

Breath-taking views
Breath taking views of Ohio River. Perfect venue for our desires (sibling re-union). Cabin needs some TLC but more than adequate for a "rustic Cabin". Very responsive hosts.

Nice place. Convenient location.
The place was nice. Read through other reviews about bedrooms and such beforehand. We did so we were not surprised and it fit us fine. There were a lot of little spiders in the house…it may be time to spray. We spent very little time at the cabin but it’s comfortable and a great view. Boat ramp is very close. We ventured to Tell City for breakfast at Julie’s and it was worth the drive.

Get Away
Four retired teachers-some friends and some family- spent four relaxing days at the Blue Herron. We laughed, we cried, we told stories and we took naps. The cabin was immaculate and the beds were great! Thank you for a wonderful get away vacation!

Listing lied
It was stated it is a 4 bedroom. It is only 2 with a loft that has a bed and a basement room with a bed. Neither of these provide any privacy. The picnic table broke while 3 of our guest were sitting on it and my son took a screw to the head because a board was sitting hanging over the end leg with the screw exposed

Great Cabin and Location
Our Family REALLY enjoyed the place and the entire weekend. One son said this is the best place we've stayed! My husband said he wished he could have met Bud. This is the first cabin built in Bud's bunch of rentals, I believe. I think small fixes and deep cleaning are coming when time allows. None of the issues affected how much we really enjoyed our stay! We really hope to come back next year, maybe with a larger family bunch! It was GREAT! Thank you, Bud and Michelle! (8-)

Perfect location
The location is beautiful! Right on the river. We had 7 adults in the cabin and had plenty of room for all of us. Kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked. Perfect place to stay for the Kentucky Derby as it’s away from all the crowds, but close enough to get to the track early! If not going into Louisville, it’s a great place to relax and enjoy the outdoors from the wrap around deck.

beautiful cabin with an anazing view
The only reason for my not giving this 5 stars is that there was an odor in the basement sleeping area - not horrible, just not pleasant.
