Donnas Choice | Lakefront + Wrap-around Deck

Master bedroom was like sleeping in a sauna due to the lack of ac. One of the sofas and chair in living room were broken and you could not comfortably sit in them. The lawn service showed up on one of our days while we were eating breakfast outside to cut the grass driving us inside. The light over the oven was broken and repair promptly but stopped working after one day. The house needs a deep cleaning. The pot and pans needed to be washed before using. The dining room table's finish is gummy and required placing bath towels on the table since our hands and dishes would get stuck to the finish. The small area rugs were so dirty I wouldn't let my dog sleep on them. I would not recommend this rental to everyone who's activities include putting together puzzles, playing board games or card playing , and watching a movie. The waterfront was of course wonderful since it is Deep Creek. However, mud pies and other evidence of previous renters diminished our water front experience. The cookie sheets were unusable , again dirty and covered with grease. The coffee pots were covered with finger prints and kitchen dirt. Before we started our vacation my daughter, sister and I had to clean the kitchen dishes and pots and pans before using. Given the lack of attention to a deep cleaning of this rental we became concerned about sleeping under comforters that were on the beds.

The house was beautiful. Lots of bathrooms!! Sliding doors from lower bedrooms let in nice cool breeze at night. The trees, birds & wildlife is beautiful. Two decks were nice to have, upper for sun or lower for shade. Fire ring on lower deck very convenient. Nice path to lake & walking trail. Nice area right at the water for swimming, picnic, fire ring and swing. Stores, shopping, kids entertainment & hiking close by. Quick respond to messages sent with concerns & questions. Cons- the decks were dirty I had to sweep them, air conditioning needs updated, need queen size beds since mostly adults stay, could use updated mattresses. Advertised showed deck off main bedroom was not there & small bedroom now has bunkbeds. The fishing was not good. Area is geared more for boats & water entertainment. Boats & water vehicles were too loud, but we are a family of fishing people so that is just our preference. Overall, great for family gathering.

Only one complaint…that master bath and the bath below it did not have hot shower/bath water. It never gets past warm. Other amenities need attention. Fire pit rusted through, light over stove burned out and the kitchen is dark. It needs that light for cooking

Wife and I here for a long weekend with our infant daughter and 2 dogs. Location is perfect with direct access through the lake via a path through tall mature trees. The double deck is awesome with great views over the lake. Very quiet area so you can really sit out and enjoy nature. House has everything we needed. Cooked a few meals with ease. Master bedroom had plenty of room with big King bed. No issues at all with access, check-in, check-out, etc. We would highly recommend this place for all families!

This house was perfect. We will absolutely be coming back.

We all had a really good time, the house has nice spot on the lake with nice beach area. The deck and grill were great. The inside of the house is very pretty, plenty bathrooms and bedrooms. The only comment would be the house needs a thorough cleaning under all the furniture/beds and clean cobwebs. Wasn’t a real big deal, didn’t bother us any but would of given 5 stars if it was cleaner. We didn’t mind and want to rent this property again. Thank you.

House is in a great, quiet location, but not far from everything you want to do. Gorgeous lake views and great place to watch the sunset. Enough room for the whole family to hang together or have their own spot to chill out when needed. Can’t wait to come back!

the property is located at a great place by the lake.

Wonderful location and nice house. All that we’d hoped for!

Great place for water dogs!!!
