Being frequent travelers ourselves, we understand guests have questions and concerns and need a response. Feel free to message us about the home and the area. Send us a message to ask more about the home or things to do in the area. We truly look forward to hearing from you.

Why they chose this property
Sweet Escape is a great home for the whole family to experience the Deep Creek and Wisp Resort, its majestic mountains of Western Maryland, and the beautiful seasons this area has to offer. The chalet-style home has room to comfortably sleep up to 10 guests. We also have another rental home (Sweet Retreat) only three homes away that can accomodate an additional 9 family members or friends.
What makes this property unique
The most unique benefit from staying at Sweet Escape is the location. The home is set in the rural country-side but is close enough to Deep Creek Lake and Wisp Resort. The drive is short, but it is just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the traffic and noisy activity on and around the lake.
