Why it is Famous : Deep Creek Lake area receives an average of 100 inches of snow per year, making it an ideal venue for winter sports. The lake itself freezes with an ice cover of almost 12 inches. Lake effect snows (from the Great Lakes) and lower temperatures due to the higher elevation contribute to this. Ice fishing on the lake is possible when this happens, and you can even snowmobile on the lake. Two of the State Parks are managed for cross country skiers during the winter - Harrington Manor and New Germany. In these parks, the rangers take tracking machines along the Park's trails to provide a track for cross country skiers. It is a beautiful and exhilarating experience to ski these beautiful parks in the winter. Wisp Ski Resort has downhill skiing and tubing if you prefer that. You can try snowshoeing and dogsledding, as well.

Great time at the lake    Sep 18,2018

We rented this home to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family. There was plenty of room for all eleven of us. This is a three story home with plenty of space to spread out. Easy access to stores and state parks.

Nice, comfortable, clean house!    Sep 18,2018

The water pressure was extremely low when we first arrived but after a quick call to the management company, a service man came by and the problem was solved. Starter paper products and soaps were provided by the owner - very thoughtful! Overall, it was a wonderful experience.

You’ll be right at home here communing with nature in the wiods a walking distance from Deep Creek Lake.The House is beautiful with a large front porch: a great place to gather for afternoon or evening drinks! The owners are accommodating and easy to work with. We hope to back again for a longer stay.

Beautiful area, landscaping in yard gorgeous. Dock difficult to access. Even young members of group had difficulty navigating steep grade to dock. Other than dock, nice house.

Perfect for families    Sep 18,2018

This house was perfect for our family reunion - we had 4 children (ages 3, 8, 9 and10) and 7 adults. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space and yet be together on the main floor. The house has 4 bedrooms upstairs and 2 bedrooms on the lowest level. The middle level has a good size living room to play games and socialize as well as a large dinning room for meals and a decent size kitchen. We cooked almost every meal in the house, and there were plenty of dishes to accommodate a large group. The location being close to the state park was also wonderful and it is an easy quick drive to town. Having a park pass available was nice too because although the park is $3 a car, we hiked at swallow falls where it would have been $3 a person to park. The only complaint I have about the house is most of the beds are pretty hard. Softer mattresses or mattress pads would make the beds better. The owners are very tentative and caring, they called after we checked in and make sure there were not questions or problems. Then they followed up with us after to make sure we enjoyed our stay. We had a great time and if we return to deep creek, we will stay here again.
