About this property

Charming, Eco-Friendly Cabin Retreat, Heart of Deep Creek

Our cabin is a charming retreat in a native woodland setting. It's in the heart of Deep Creek Lake, offering recreational activities year round. Wisp Ski Resort is 3 miles and the lake is a short stroll away. Stay at our cozy hideaway under the stars. In winter you'll find a snow filled wonderland as you relax by the crackling fire. Spring, summer or fall take a swim, explore nature or go boating. Go to the nearby cafe or stay and have cappuccino on the deck. Take a day trip to Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater. Our cabin is an accommodating, truly hip, cozy getaway for families and singles. It's the place for a wonderful healthy break at an affordable price.

We will continue to make changes to the property in keeping with a greener world. We would appreciate your insights in creating a 'greener' cabin as well. Here's to a healthy body, mind, planet and lifestyle. We look forward to sharing our cabin retreat with you.


Eco Friendly Living: It's our goal to have the cabin completely renewable(green)and self sufficient, as soon as technology and financing allows. Currently we have used eco-paints that do not emit harmful gases. We've furnished the cabin using Craig's list which means most everything is recycled at least one generation. We use renewable products and recycle whenever possible. Water is renewably drawn from our well and heat is enhanced by the fireplace. Safe keyless entry!

Cozy cabin for a winter getaway
My family loved this cozy cabin near Deep Creek Lake. The kitchen was well stocked, the cabin was clean and comfortable. Dale sent so much helpful information to make our stay was easy . We went for a winter skiing and tubing adventure and it snowed all weekend. Perfect! The man that plowed the neighborhood was right on top of it so we had no problems at all getting around.

Cozy getaway
The property is beautiful! Beds were comfy and the kitchen well stocked. We ended up snowed in for the day we were there but the fireplace kept us cozy. One issue we had was getting up the driveway. The driveway incline was a bit much for my minivan but, it was icy. We ended up making it up and then discovered a flat tire (obviously not the fault of the hosts to be clea) and had to wait because of the snowy and icy weather. The host, Dale, was so kind and responsive to our messages. They even offered to let us stay another night since we were having trouble getting out. Despite our troubles, the cabin was a wonderful place to be snowed in at.

The Good, the Bad, the Ugly
Good: The host Dale was easy to reach. She tried to help us when we couldn't get the keypad door to lock when we wanted to leave. The floors and countertops seemed clean. Nice area. Bad: The back of the couch frame was busted, the shower is old, only one shower upstairs for the two main rooms, the walls are thin and you can hear everything in the next rooms and bathroom. We often used the downstairs bathroom for privacy. The deck outside is very slippery when wet. The jacuzzi panel was upside down, which we were notified of this but... why. Ugly: The heating sensors must not be working. We turned the thermostats up to 70 degrees and we cooked! Had to turn everything down to 50/55F. The floor heaters got so hot they were glowing red. My husband burnt his hand reaching down to grab his sock. The headboard for the beds upstairs is fabric, which is fine if cleaned. When I moved the pillow down from the left side there was a clear yellow stain on the headboard of the kind bed. It made me feel as though everything else was dirty. I don't know where all the good reviews came from but for the price we paid to not have the place upkept is ridiculous. Don't appreciate needing to have to worry about turning on and off breaker switches, leaving dehumidifiers on or off, and washing dishes. How do I know the glasses were cleaned right (or at all) by the last person?? Also, not sure why it's listed as eco friendly.

Cozy Cabin
We had wonderful weekend getaway to this cute cabin at DCL. The host was so accommodating and communicative. The cabin was warm and the backyard area was magical with the lights, firepit, and hot tub. We enjoyed hiking in Swallow Falls and great food at Fire Water! Will definitely go back!

Fall escape
Timing was perfect, grounds were carpeted with colorful leaves. Cabin is warm and cozy. Just off the main road, yet you feel buried in the woods....minutes from everything. Communications were above and beyond, directions on what is where in the house, suggestions of places to go, eat, do, etc........Great experience, great weekend. We were sorry it had to end.
