Welcome to a truly special lakefront experience on the shores of Deep Creek Lake.

My gf and I stayed here for an extended weekend and it was amazing. The property is beautiful and the house is so cozy! The owner’s were fantastic and were so accommodating. Such a beautiful place in the fall with all the leaves and a perfect place for a bonfire. The location is perfect on the lake and a great spot for all ages. 10/10

Fantastic long weekend!

This is a great property in a secluded community along a quiet cove. Lots of space for adults (and kids if you want to bring them) without being unnecessarily large like so many of the places at Deep Creek Lake. We loved spending time outside on the deck and walking along the lake. There’s a great public walking path that starts at the community entrance and goes all the way up to the dam. We highly recommend it!

Great Stay

Great stay at Rob's place. Classic Deep Creek cabin feel. Plenty of space for our family. The house was nice and clean. Located on a very nice, smaller cove that is not very busy. Deep water there for your boat even after the lake level has been drawn down in the fall. Check with Rob, but the dock was still in the water the first weekend of October. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful house on a great cove

This is our 3rd year renting this house and again it did not disappoint. The home is well stocked and situated on a great end of the lake in a great cove. The owner is very responsive to any questions or issues. We can’t wait to come back next summer!!

Why they chose this property

This property is located on a dead end lane which means there is virtually no car traffic. Very quiet and peaceful area of the lake. Great water quality with deep water which means not having to swim through lakebed vegetation. Western exposure for maximum sun in the late afternoon and evening hours.

What makes this property unique

Quiet neighborhood yet close to all the main lake attractions.
