One of the nicest places we’ve stayed at in Deep Creek. Incredibly clean, cozy, has everything you need for a nice and relaxing getaway. The hosts were great and responsive. You can’t beat the location. We’ll be back!
Beautiful house and great location. Loved that they had 3 queen or larger beds for the adult families and pet friendly! Check in and check out was a breeze. Highly recommend!!
Lovely area and a great, convenient property for anyone wanting to explore the Greater Deep Creek Lake area. Property owners were attentive and responsive and had the property perfectly in order. Would definitely come back!
Beautiful chalet we’re friends to have some rest and relaxation. They were game to play and entertainment around the area very close I would recommend this for a nice get away with friends
This home is very nice and in a great location. Within 15 minutes of everything around DCL area. Great deck space with fire pit for relaxing and plenty of games and an arcade machine that the kids loved. Host was very responsive and everything was easy to find in the house.
Really enjoyed our stay. My husband and I celebrated our 12 year anniversary with our pups. Loved the fenced yard and closed deck. The place was spacious and clean. It was a wonderful stay!
The chalet was outstanding. It was very roomy and spacious. Loved the living room , fireplace and back deck with fire pit . Very nicely decorated with much attention to detail .
This was our first visit to Deep Creek Lake. We wanted to do something different this year for Thanksgiving, so rented this beautiful VRBO, brought our Thanksgiving meal and had a fabulous, relaxing long holiday weekend. Chris and Ashley had the home all ready for us, including beautiful Christmas decorations. The home was clean and included everything we could possibly need for our stay. It snowed during our stay, so we did not get to use any of the outdoor amenities. Chris was very quick to respond to any questions I had and was very accommodating to us wanting to alter check out time. Our two small, housebroken and well behaved dogs were welcomed, which added to our lovely family holiday. We definitely will rent from Chris and Ashley again when we come back to Deep Creek Lake.
I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the property. Rules were simple, location was nice, Ample space for the group we were with, and the amenities of the property were very nice.
The only minor downside for us were the dog area seemed smaller than advertised, but we made it work for our dogs.
We had such a fun & relaxing time. We will definitely be back. Convenient location to the lake and local attractions. Was just as the pictures portrayed, very clean and well stocked. This home had everything we needed and more.
The property looked just like the photos. We were centrally located and were able to come and go. The ages of our group were from 6 months to 76 and everyone enjoyed the tranquillity the property offered. Can’t wait to come again!!
Property is located in a nice peaceful area, with limited traffic and close enough to anything you want to do. Communication with the owner was great and was able to take care of anything we needed. We will definitely look to stay again.

Hi, we are happy you enjoyed you stay! We are hoping your 1 star rating was an accident, since we always strive to provide our guests a great experience!
Great location to boat rental, groceries etc. House interior was clean, updated bathrooms, kitchen was well stocked (spices, etc.). Large deck, gas fireplace was a really nice tough.
This property was great! Very clean and well stocked home! Loved the board games and Ms PAC Man machine! Also great fenced area for the dogs to roam off leash! Close to all activities and great outdoor space, hammock was wonderful for relaxing! We enjoyed the propane fire pit on the deck and the umbrella over the table for lunches! Overall a great trip for our family!
First day sledding and playing with the games at the house. Love Pacman arcade. Remaining days hiked the paths of the park, played, enjoyed the house alot! Nobody wants to leave. Fantastic home and location.
