The home was well kept and clean with great access to the lake. My issues are the fact that the selling point was the fireplace, hot tub, and canoeing. The wood was damp so I had to go forage for dry wood and eventually purchase wood. There was no access to paddles or life vests to canoe, and the hot tub was 70 degrees. There were no directions as to how to increase the temperature. I contacted maintenance andThey promptly came to show me hot to increase temp. When he arrive the temperature was 69 degrees. He set it to the highest setting 104 and said that the tempt would rise 5degrees per hour. 3 hours later and the temp was 71 degrees. Prior to me checking out the following morning and closing up the jacuzzi, the temperature was 80. Not having the jacuzzi working properly and not having access to canoeing was very disappointing! I would love to have partial refund to rectify my disappointment for these property amenities.

This property was great for a long weekend away with my family of five. The property was awesome. There was a fire pit, swings, hammock, hot tub, and large deck.. It was quiet and peaceful.
There was plenty of space for myself and my family of 5. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, silverware, etc.
The downstairs was great with darts, a pool/ping pong table, and card games and board games. The couches downstairs were very comfortable as well.
It is a great place, but I gave it 4 stars for a few reasons.
-The house is literally at the mouth of the lake. It is murky, shallow, muddy water. You can’t really fish because of it. Also, there is no swimming. In front of the boat dock is such a tiny place with no real-or safe-entry.
The decor is simplistic, which goes with the cottage feel, but the bathrooms and bedrooms could use an update. Another thing to mention is they use down/feather pillows. If you are allergic, bring your own pillows.
Because we didn’t have a boat, we had to drive everywhere as it’s not close to the main part of Deep Creek Lake.
If I could give it 4.5 stars, I would. We really did enjoy our stay, but definitely rent a boat for easy access to all that Deep Creek Lake has to offer.
Great, clean and updated house. The family and I are going to book again next year!

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Communication
Overall it was in a great location and the house is lovely. However, there were some cleanliness issues relating more to the outdoor areas including issues with the hot tub, and trash/ broken glass around walkways and fire pit. Also be prepared to bring your own hand soaps, trash bags, shampoos, etc.
Very clean and open house. Beautiful and relaxing. We had one minor issue with the hot tub which was resolved very quickly.

Nice property but needs maintenance
The property and location is nice, but the house needs a deep clean and maintenance. Dusty fans, stained linens/blankets. The kitchen faucet is in very poor condition, a door to the outside porch doesn’t lock, and the towel rack in the downstairs bathroom is broken. The biggest disappointment was the hot tub not working and wouldn’t heat up and the fireplace in the downstairs isn’t hooked up so it was freezing in the downstairs area. I feel that it was too expensive to stay here to have all of these issues. On top of that there is no toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags, dish soap, or hand soap at the home. We couldn’t even find a broom or cleaning supplies to straighten up throughout our stay.
Loved the place, even with our planned events of snowboarding getting canceled, we still had a great time at the property. Would definitely stay here again.
Would definitely recommend for families, groups of friends, etc. With living space on three levels, there is plenty of room to spread out and be comfortable. The home is very comfortably furnished, the kitchen is well-equipped and the deck is a great spot for al-fresco dining, drinking coffee or wine by the firepit, etc. It's a quiet, peaceful location and couldn't be more lovely.
