Nestled in a quiet and wooded original lake neighborhood on the west wide of Deep Creek Lake, our home “Lake View Escape” is a perfect spot for your relaxing year round retreat. Our spacious property includes plenty of (flat) off street parking, a large deck with a hot tub/grill/picnic table, a great back yard to spread out in, and a fire pit with plenty of outdoor seating.

You will take a very brief stroll from the back deck down to the lake where you will find a sandy beach, dock, and an amazing kid friendly swimming area. Our kids and dogs love swimming in the shallow cove, swimming across to the other nearby shore, and setting up imaginary worlds all around the beach area.

Your guests will immediately feel at home inside our home where there is a cozy living room with a wood stove, a large kitchen and adjacent dining area, a sunroom for lazy book reading in the mountain air or watching a movie, as well as the three bedrooms (5 beds), and two full baths with showers.

We are located 15-20 minutes from most of the deep creek attractions including The Wisp, Swallow Falls, Deep Creek State Park, white water rafting, area golf courses, and McHenry, Maryland.

Most of our guests plan to return again due to the very special connection with our home and property - we hope you come stay with us soon!

Please note that the DNR adjusts the lake depth throughout the year, outside of our control, so the water depth at the dock varies, please check and also be aware if parking a boat at the dock in low water. The dock is removed from the water in October based on lake rules. The boat dock is an amenity that is subject to weather conditions, water levels, and other natural factors.

Pending availability, we offer an early check in of 1:00 PM and/or a late check out of 12:00 PM for a fee. Please message after booking if this is requested (this must be advance planned).

The family dogs are allowed with a small kennel provided in the home. There is a pet fee per reservation that needs to be selected at checkout, this includes two dogs max, additional dogs need to be discussed and would require additional fee if approved.

We have both a woodstove and firepit with firewood provided. A 4x4 is recommended in the winter.

You must be 21 years or older to rent this property.

    We loved our little lakefront getaway! It was quiet and clean, exactly as described, perfect for our Spring Break reset. Host was very communicative, as well, and offered many helpful suggestions for local activities. Would rent again!

    Matt was very helpful and communicative starting before our trip, and provided lots of useful information to make our stay an enjoyable one. The house was clean, cozy, and comfortable, and the setting is beautiful right on the lake with lots of activities nearby, even though it was just after the end of the summer season and pretty quiet in the area.

    What an amazing property! We couldn't have been happier with our stay and can't wait to come back. The host was extremely communicative and helpful, the property had everything we needed for a family of 5 (2 adults 3 kids under 7) and a dog.

    This was our second visit & it was just as beautiful as last time. We spent most of our time paddle boarding and on the beach. The hot tub is always a favorite of the kids! The cottage is always clean and cozy. Thanks again for a great family vacation!

    Had a wonderful trip celebrating our daughter’s 21st birthday. The house had everything we could have needed to make memories. The kitchen was stocked with all the tools, the sleeping arrangements were great and comfortable. Laundry facilities were available on site. Having the pier and the beach was a definite plus! All visitors were pleased with the stay and would rebook! Thank you for being so welcoming!

    We come to deep creek every February and this is by far the best house we have ever rented. Cozy, clean and dog friendly. We loved it and will definitely be back again! Owners definitely take pride in their home and it shows.

    We had a great stay! Location was perfect - quick 15 minutes to Wisp. Cozy well-appointed house with all the necessities. It was snowy and very cold that weekend, but the wood stove and hot tub kept us nice and warm. Matt was easy to work with and we felt very welcome! Hope to return to explore the lake in the summer.

    We had a relaxing get away with our 2 fur babies. The house was very clean with comfy beds and a very well stocked kitchen. Our fur babies loved playing in the leaves. We had hoped to see a bear, but that didn't happen. We enjoyed daily visits by the deer who were eating the pears. We really liked the area of the lake the house sat on.

    Stayed from Sunday-Wednesday, mid-September. We had a great time. Beautiful view of the lake from the backyard with lots of sitting areas available. It was a bummer that the water level was so low, but that’s nature for you! The area is so quiet. We were def able to relax and chill

    We enjoyed staying at this property very much. The Lake was very low. Matt had mentioned there could be variation in water levels. We were not prepared for the dry dock. Swimming was not even possible. The neighbors’ water depth was fine. I presume this was due to the placement of the house on the cove. The house and amenities were wonderful. Great communication and information provided. Lovely view.

    The house was clean, the hot tub on the large deck with ample seating and the fire pit make the back yard a destination with a view. Beds are awesome and the water is hot! Kitchen was well equipped. The overall experience was great! Thank you Matt!

    Our family enjoyed two days here. Our dog was in heaven chasing the ball into the lake and in the backyard. The house was comfortable and perfect for hanging out when it rained and we played games. We also enjoyed a cozy campfire our last night. The area is beautiful. Spent one morning hiking along Swallow Falls and enjoyed an afternoon in a pontoon boat. The location of the house is nice and quiet, with no major nearby. Matt was incredibly responsive and helpful with the checkin process. Went very smoothly. Only disappointment -- we didn't see a bear!
