Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2006
Our family is from Northern Maryland. Our children enjoy skiing and snowboarding, while we relax in the hot tub. We love to share our home with others, as we are very proud of it.
Why the Owner Chose Big Boulder
We liked this area because of its location to Maryland. It is far enough for a get a way, but not too far of a drive. We selected our lot because of the view of the slopes in the winter and the lake in the summer. It is also on a "no outlet" road, which makes it very nice. We have the largest and only private back yard in the development.
The Unique Benefits of this Home
We have rented many homes while vacationing in the area. When we decided to build our own vacation rental retreat, we wanted to put into it everything we liked about all the houses we rented. The first and foremost was comfort. All the furniture, mattresses, and tv's were purchased new for this home. We did not want any of our guest to have to bring more then what they needed, so we provide linens for all the beds, bath towels, and hot tub towels, and kitchen items. EVERYTHING is supplied! Having lake accessability was also important. We are members of the Lake Mountain Club. This is not open to the public. Included is use of the lake, heated pool, kiddie pool, (pools are at Jack Frost also) lounge chairs at the pool and lake. Boats are available for a fee, by the hour or day. Its the kids vacation as well, so we loaded up with games. There is something for everyone.
