Summer reunion

This was the 3rd time my family has vacationed at Brandon’s home. As always, we had a great time in the Deep Creek area. The house is so comfortable and spacious for our large group. Both the large porch and kitchen/dining areas were great areas to gather and have fun. Anything and everything you could think of is available for a pleasant stay.

Stones Throw Stay

Overall everything was great. House was clean and as advertised. It does have a ton of space, each one if us didnt feel cramped and had space to spread out. Back deck was really nice and patio furniture was in great shape. Location is in a good spot too.

Lovely house and very spacious.

Lots of space, dining table for 10 which is difficult to find, and lots of bathrooms. The place was very clean and nicely decorated. If you stay a while be prepared to provide your own toilet paper and paper towels. Brandon was easy to communicate with.

Millie, thank you for your kind review. As part of our rental and included in our welcome note we provide 2 new toilet paper rolls in addition to what is currently on the holder for every bathroom and we provide 2 new paper towel rolls in addition to what is already on the holder. Anything beyond that is the responsibility of the renter.

Family Thanksgiving

We LOVED Stone’s Throw! Did not want to leave! The kitchen was very well equipped. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner and had everything we needed! It was so nice arriving to the home already decorated for Christmas. We enjoyed card games around the large dining table. Everyone said the beds were comfortable. We highly recommend!!!!

Perfect

The house was beautiful and spacious! The location was perfect and close to everything! The kitchen had everything we needed. The game room was the best I’ve seen and enjoyed by all! The only downsides were the smell of the well water and the musty smell in the basement and the amount of bugs coming in both the front and downstairs back door due to the lights.

Carli, we are very glad you enjoyed your stay, the game room in the basement, and we thank you for the feedback so we can always improve on any perceived issues. It turns out after investigating your review that the AC condensate pipe was clogged causing humidity to rise in the basement (Thanks for the help on discovering this). We also have a dehumidifier in the basement bedroom to help. We have also serviced our water filtration system based on your review and replaced the anode which solves the well water issue (thanks again for this note). As for outside bugs and the deck lights, not much we can do there. We always strive to keep our house in top condition and hope to host you again in the future.

Great Family Retreat House

We stayed here over Christmas and had the best time! The house is in great condition and was in super clean condition. Bringing our own bedsheets was a bit of a pain but hey, at least you know it's clean! There was ample cooking supplies and toys for the kids to play with as well as board games and puzzles (without missing peices!) You can tell the owners also spend time in the house as everything has a warm homely feel and all the little things you might need ( a pair of scissors or a screwdriver to adjust bindings) are there in the house. Overall we're super glad we chose this house!

Ron, so glad you enjoyed your stay. We decided to go with a no linens policy based on our previous travel experience for non-fly in locations, and to pass the savings on to our renters by not having to hire an expensive linen service. I agree its not the simplest set up but feel its a good trade off. Appreciate your kind words.

Autumn Getaway

We had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful property. It was a perfect fit for our group of 12. The kitchen & dining room were spacious & well stocked. Meal prep & eating together was easy and fun. All the bedrooms & bathrooms were large, clean, and well decorated. The living room & game room easily accommodated all of us watching tv, playing pool, shuffle board, card games, etc. We loved the backyard fire pit. The house & surrounding neighborhood were peaceful, wooded, with nice wildlife when taking walks. The location was perfect for day trips, sightseeing, restaurants, etc. We’re already hoping to return next fall and stay at Stones Throw again.

Wonderful property and location

Because of CoVid we were a group of 7, instead of 11. This home is very spacious and very well stocked. We found it clean and the owner was very quick to respond to any questions we had. The beds were all comfortable and we found everything we needed in the kitchen for our holiday meal. Our group enjoyed hiking in the area during the day and the game room downstairs each evening for ping pong, darts, and shuffleboard competition. The large TV screen was great for movies. Thank you for sharing your home with us! If we return to the area we will be certain to reserve this property again!

Weekend rafting trip

Overall, great experience: Very nice and clean property. Brandon was responsive with any questions leading up to our stay. The only opportunity is that I didn’t realize sheets and towels weren’t included. Though it does say it in the house rules, I missed it. This is different than other rental properties I stayed at. Luckily we caught this prior to the trip and brought them.

Fantastic house, plenty of space, everything you need for a great week away

The house was fantastic! Plenty of room for 3 families to spread out! We loved the game room downstairs and lots of board games and DVDs. All bedrooms were very spacious. We did long distance learning for the kids during the week and everyone had their own space and WiFi worked great! Deck had a lot of room and comfy seating. Loved that there was a space for the kids of hangout separate from the adults. Great area, close to the brewery. Short drive to Deep Creek Lake state park for beach and hiking trails. Short drive to swallow falls for hiking and waterfalls. Great weather, and plenty of space for outdoor fun- basketball and fire pit were both a huge hit!
