You are welcome to visit Lake Heron, in Perry
County, Pennsylvania. Dean and Gail Stephens have owned the 200 plus acre
property since the mid-eighties. It is located 30 miles north of
Harrisburg, and 2 miles off U.S. route 11 & 15 at Liverpool. Please
call or email if you wish to just drop by to take a look, so the gate can be
unlocked. Our goal is to provide a tranquil, quiet retreat in a natural environment. (Dogwoods usually bloom the first week of May) |

Open from May 1 to November 22 |
Check the Attractions and Community Events page for special activities in the area
| Lake Heron is a 9-acre, spring-fed lake
stocked with Largemouth Bass, Rock Bass, Catfish, and Bluegills. The
fishing is amazing! The average bass is 12-15 inches. Many of the
bluegills are enormous, and are a delicious pan fish. Catfish were stocked in
2004 and are still growing. Fishing is
catch and
release, except for the
Bluegills, although fish may be purchased.
We are licensed as a "Fee Fishing Lake", so no fishing license is required. See Fishing at Lake Heron Adjacent to the Lake Heron property is PA State Game Land No. 258, which provides hundreds of acres of additional land for your enjoyment. We are eager to share our paradise in Perry County with others, but at the same time maintain it's integrity and preserve it's natural beauty. We have adopted the following motto for those who visit us at Lake Heron: "Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints." |
