Cozy home in serene setting with lake access. Water seems high in iron, occasional sulfur smell. Filter on kitchen tap. We did buy some bottled water. Communication with host was excellent, detailed.

What a great house!

Stayed here first week of October with four adults and three pre-teen children. House is clean, super well equipped, comfortable beds and furniture, and a fabulous outdoor space. Kids loved having campfires in the firepit. Quiet neighborhood. Deck is nice place to sit and relax. There shoulder season but still plenty to do, including OctoberFest at Wisp Resort, which was fun for kids and adults. Host was very responsive and easy to contact. Would definitely stay here again.

Comfortable cabin and nice host

We enjoyed our week-end here. The cabin is in a nice shady spot with near neighbors but isolated by trees and greenery. There are plenty of amenities indoor and out. The cabin condition is a little dated but amenities are as described here and everything is in working order. The cabin is more spacious than I expected from the beds & bath count so my family of 6 found it plenty large. Garrett County MD is an amazing place with tons of natural forest beauty. Wow, didn't know about this as a destination but it's worth it!

Thanksgiving 2020

The house was much bigger then I could tell from the pictures online. It was central to all we wanted to do. We were close to the lake access/beach and went kayaking. We played flag football on a field right next to Tennis courts that are right behind the house. We had a nice fire in the yard firepit and were able to cook a nice Thanksgiving dinner (pasta night instead of Traditional Turkey). Clean up and check out were easy. It was a great stay.

Amazing property in Garrett County

Helen's house is an incredible place. The listing describes it as cozy, which is often real-estate code for "cramped", but the house was spacious while still being wonderfully pleasant for a winter (or, I assume, summer!) getaway. It's easily accessible from the main roads, although a 4WD or AWD is advisable for a few sections that may be icy. The main room is heated by a gas fireplace, which can also keep the rest of the house warm, and there are radiators in every room with individual controls. The house was well maintained and nicely decorated; nothing fussy or overdone, just classy and pleasant. While we brought our own utensils, the kitchen was well equipped and stocked. I recommend this rental wholeheartedly.

Hidden Gem

We walked in the front door and were in awe of the space. It is much more roomy than we were expecting. The flow of the living area and kitchen is great. We really enjoyed using the outdoor fire ring. It is walking distance to the lake- there is a even a dock that you could use if you plan to bring or rent kayaks. The location is perfect. Close to Deep Creek Lake, Swallow Falls and Oakland. Helen is a fantastic host. She was in contact with me a few days before with all of the house entry info and then even touched base to make sure I was aware of a local road closure that could have impacted my drive into town from home. I didnt have any problems during my stay, but I feel like she would have been very easy to contact if I had needed her to.

Summer Weekend Stay

The house was basically as shown in the pictures. Our family of four had plenty of space and the yard area was quite nice. Access was easy and owner was communicative and responsive via text. The listing should be updated to say that no towels are available (the owner texted this info to us the week of our stay) and also make clear that there is no AC and that the property only has access to the lake via a walk through the neighborhood, then a condo parking lot, and then a wooded path beyond that. We had to text the owner after we arrived to ask about lake access from the house since there was nothing in the VRBO Info binder at the property. Directions to the lake and dock should be added to that binder. In addition, there was a lot of open food in the fridge, freezer and cabinets which felt a little odd. All closets were full of owner’s family’s things (coats, games, paper products, alcohol, tools, etc) so perhaps these should be locked as ‘owner’s closets’? It felt as if we were ‘using’ someone’s house for a weekend until they got back.

Thank you for your review. Some of it helped me a greatdeal.. I always try to provide what a guest may need during their stay. It is a Rent by Owner, it is my home, I do all my own cleaning and I believe it should have what a guest may need during their stay. Unless you got into my owner's locked closet, you found no clothes in the closets nor in the dresser drawers except extra sheets for the beds in that room. The closets held blankets and extra pillows for renters use and one closet has the puzzles on the top shelf. I will change the towels request - fair enough! And to further explain the access to the lake. The new house being built has drastically changed our access for now! But still available. I do keep mustard, mayonnaise, etc in the refrig to accommodate guests, if they possibly have missed packing! No alcohol drinks could have been found - never provided! The bathroom has bandaids, small lotions and soaps in a drawer for guests use. You really were using some ones house until I got back to clean for my next guest. I do take great pride in my house. I am glad that you enjoyed your stay.. I do believe the listing says that there is no air condition. Fans in each room except the down stair bedroom.
