Awesome house. Awesome trip!

This house was perfect for our two families -- 4 adults and 5 kids. First, this house is the cleanest rental house I have ever stayed in. It was homey and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked with every cooking utensil you could imagine. The property is close enough to everything, but with the privacy and quiet we wanted. The yard was big for the kids to play and the hot tub was perfect at night for the adults. We recommend visiting the Mountain State Brewery right down the street-- good food, bingo and live music! We had the best time and plan to rent this house again soon!

Recharged and Relaxed

It was more than what I expected, and couldn't have asked for anything better. My only regret was not having booked a longer stay.

Great time staying at the great escape in McHenry MD

we enjoyed our stay there. the house was clean and ready when we arrived. The location was good, just above Deep Creek but it was easy to access the lake area, just a quick drive down 219. Only concern was the mattress in the master bedroom, it was stained and needs to be replaced.

Perfect for Families

The property was very, clean, spacious, and entertaining. I traveled with my 5 and 7 years old boys and they loved the outdoors playground equipment, ping pong and fuss ball table. I also traveled with my elderly in laws and the accommodations were perfect for them. I would definitely rent the property again.

The Great Escape 2020

We could not have asked for a more beautiful and spacious home we got with The Great Escape. We spent our evening hanging out on the front porch playing cornhole in the front yard. Then retired to the firepit and hot tub when the stars came out. The kids loved the downstairs with pingpong, pool, foosball, and their own TV viewing area, it was their own getaway from the parents. We would highly recommend The Great Escape to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

Beautiful house, great location, lots to do

I would say the only complaint we have regarding the property is there was no cleaning supplies and very little offered as far as paper products. The house itself is beautiful, just hate having to pay for things like garbage bags, cleaning supplies, and paper towels.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Mar 2020
Thanks for being our guest and, indeed, we only supply 2 rolls of TP per bathroom and a few trash bags, along with hand soaps and a roll of paper towels. Generally we have found that is adequate for guests for at least a few days and our guests typically visit he grocery store 6 minutes away within a couple of days of their arrival where they can stock up on the supplies that fill their needs. Sorry that was not clear in the communications prior to your arrival as we would have Gladly provided extras for your visit!
