While Deep Creek Lake is delightful, the Sm'oars rental should be avoided until the owner makes substantial improvements overall. The house was in general disrepair, with many scuffed walls, ceiling cracks, chipped drywall, and holes in the air conditioner window frame that allowed cold air in the upstairs bedroom when the wind blew. Moreover, the cleaning of the house left much to be desired, as all glass surfaces were grimy, and dirt and garbage was found under the throw rugs on the main floor. In addition, the photos of the unit on VRBO failed to reveal that the view to the lake is obstructed by several nearby telephone and electrical wires, making it quite unsightly.
