The home is beautiful. A big, mountain home which sits lake front. However, there are no widow treatments in the majority of the home, this includes the master suites. So, on the sunny days we had (even in December) the house was very hot, and then in the evenings if anyone would be on the deck (whole other issue) you would not be able to dress in the front half of the rooms. We couldn't use the decks or the main staircase leading to the front door because the rental company did not clear out ANY of the ice. There was almost 4 inches of thick ice on stone stairs making it dangerous to use the front entry. We wouldn't have been able to get into the house either, because the supplied entry code (by the rental company) was inaccurate. The owners dedicate a code which is sent via email/3rd party which I found a day and a half later in my spam. Thankfully, the cleaning ladies (who were stuck in the driveway and we had to push out because of all of the aforementioned ice) left the upper door unlocked so we just used that door the entire time. Lastly, the people who stayed in the house before us clearly smoked (all sorts of herbs) in the laundry/mud room (which we playfully referred to as the Weed Room) but stunk up that whole side of the house. The home is beautiful and roomy, we did enjoy it, but it was about 15 minutes from everything Deep Creek has to offer in the winter, so it was a bit off the beaten path for the winter activities we participated in while visiting.
