Had an absolutely wonderful time… would have only been better if it had been summer to really see this in full swing. But we were blessed with beautiful mild fall weather and enjoyed taking in the beauty of nature and the calming waters. Spoke to the friendliest and most helpful of people. Enjoyed going into the towns of Ottawa and Utica as well. Perfect getaway an hour from Chicago!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear you had such a wonderful time and were able to enjoy the peaceful fall weather, beautiful scenery, and calming river views. Even without the summer rush, there’s something so special about this time of year, and we’re glad it made your getaway memorable.It’s great to hear you experienced the kindness of the people here and enjoyed exploring Ottawa and Utica. We couldn’t agree more—being just an hour from Chicago makes it the perfect escape!We’d love to welcome you back in the summer so you can experience everything in full swing. Until then, thank you again for staying with us!

House is lovely and exactly as pictured. Enjoyed the setting by the River in Heron’s Landing. Housekeeping did not have the house ready at check-in so we had to wait a bit.
Thank you for your review! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the home, its riverside setting in Heron’s Landing, and that it matched your expectations. We do apologize for the delay at check-in and appreciate your patience while housekeeping finished preparing the space. We’ll be reviewing this with our team to help ensure a smoother arrival experience in the future. We hope to welcome you back for another relaxing stay by the river!

Very comfortable. We liked the screened front porch and the water view. Problems with the TV. The concrete step was rocky and sometimes made me feel like i was out of balance.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you found the home comfortable and enjoyed the screened porch and water view. We apologize for the issues you experienced with the TV and the uneven concrete step. We’ll be sure to address these to improve future stays. We appreciate you letting us know and hope to welcome you back soon!

Couldn’t get dishwasher to work
Thanks for the heads-up! It sounds like our dishwasher decided to take a vacation of its own! We’ll give it a pep talk (or maybe just a quick repair) to get it back in action. In the meantime, we hope you still had fun during your stay! We’d love to welcome you back for a stay where everything is working as hard as you are at relaxing!

30 Presbyterian pastors from across the U.S. stayed throughout the Heritage Harbor Resort in 14 different units, mostly in Navvy Town. Without exception, every space was beautiful, clean, well equipped, and beautifully situated. Sherayne and Rich we’re perfect hosts making our stay exceptional. I would highly recommend this resort.

Red Anchor #23 was a GREAT place to stay. The unit had everything you need for an extended stay. Loved the little boxes of soaps and such in kitchen and each bathroom. Fireplace was an added treat. Did not cook or use stove but looked like there was everything needed to make whatever you want. Coffee pot was an added benefit to go along with Keurig if I wanted more that just a cupwould definitely stay in Red Anchor #23 again.
