Great Lake view! Went with my family of 11 for a long weekend and we had a great time. Enjoyed the games available for the whole family to enjoy in the evenings.
The house was really great for our family. The back yard area and decks with a view of the lake are wonderful. Kitchen was well stocked, but we had to buy handsoaps for Bathrooms. The only reason I rated 4 overall is the location on a busy road which was noisy at night when trying to sleep. The driveway entrance scraped the bottom of our car, which my husband definitely wanted to let you know. You have to be strategic about entry/exit if your car sits low
We loved our whole experience at this house. Once we arrived, we never moved our vehicles because there was so much to do. A boat rental is two doors down from the house, and we decided to rent one for three days. So we spent most of our time on the water. If we had to go to the store, we traveled to one via the boat. We wanted to go out to eat a couple of times, so we traveled there on the boat. There are many nice places to eat like Dutchâs Daughter and Firewall, and the Creamery is a few doors down from this house. The pier provided a lot of fishing opportunities and the fire pit area was cozy for evening fires with the family. The house was nicely designed and decorated. We especially enjoyed the infinity table with the children. The family room in the lower level has a very large sectional sofa with oversized ottomans which hosted a family movie night. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return again.
Property is in a great location. Bedrooms and bathrooms are very nice. Hot tub is nice. Kids enjoyed the game room. Parking area is small. Garrett Highway is very busy and dangerous to get out from driveway.
The property was very nice and was essentially as advertised other than normal wear and tear since the pictures were taken. Front porch paint could definitely use a touch up.Things to resolve:1) Keurig coffee maker lid required a weight on top to stay closed2) Basement shower nozzle was loose3) We had 9 people. There were only 8 seats at the dinner table. That would be a big problem in a group actually maxed out at 14 people, especially in the late fall through early spring when you canât eat outside 4) There were three propane tanks but two were empty and we emptied the active one5) Knob on the basement dresser drawer was not connected6) We had a fair amount of carpenter ants and other small insects!Suggestions:1) The deck should have a gate for pets and small children.2) The dock should connect better to the grass. There was a slope that was treacherous when wet, especially for the two folks with some mobility issues3) Cupboard space was very tight. Plates, cups, bowls, and pans could be consolidated.That said, the major problem was the basement water leak that we discovered the last day. The water completely saturated the basement floor board so that water seeped through the tile and onto the area rug. Without proper remediation, this could become a mold problem. Due to this problem, two of the three families left early on Friday since they could not use the basement. I would hope that some sort of refund should be offered for that.
Our extended family attempted to beat the summer rush by booking the shoulder season right after Memorial Day (May 27th) failing to account for the much cooler weather at altitude. It was too cool for most outdoor activity, but we were able to make good use of the well equipped "penthouse" game room and other features of the house. Overall a great place to stay inside also!
The house itself was beautiful. Very great location and walkable to the restaurants and shops. The place itself had a couple issues. In the photos they had the dock in the water. That was what we were looking forward to but when we arrived we did not have the dock in the water. It was a huge disappointment to show up and not be able to fish on the dock. The next issue we had was that there were not enough towels, paper towels, toilet paper, or garbage bags. We had to purchase all of those things ourselves when we ran out and it was very inconvenient. The fridge was very bare and did not even have any condiments or water, this was disappointing because again we had to buy everything ourselves. The final thing that really was not great was that the hot tub was dirty and filled with sticks and bugs. The water was too low and it definitely needed more water and to be cleaned. Overall the house was great but not at all worth paying top dollar for a place that is clearly just run by a management company who doesnât seem to care about much more than a buck. There were many things in the house that needed repairs that must have just gone to the back burner Great location, beautiful home, tons to do with the kids and family, but overall disappointed for what we paid for. It was not what the listing made it to be.
We stayed here with five couples and had a great weekend! Everyone had their own room and there was so much space, we never felt crammed. The house was exactly as advertised, no issues, and the hosts were extremely communicative and helpful. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a great spot on the lake!
We enjoyed our stay. The house is lovely and we were definitely comfortable with six adults and three kids. The morning sunrises were beautiful over the lake. The property management was excellent. The only minor issue is the road traffic. It can get a bit loud but itâs not unbearable. You also need to be careful if you have a pet or kids when walking in the front of the house.
Great central location right off busy Garrett Highway. Nice amenities, could even suit 3 distinct groups with sleeping for 14. Walk out lower level directly to the lake, steps away. Nice hot tub, dock and kayaks. Fun game table and some arcade games if children come along. Enjoyable evening by the fire pit with s'mores! Easy to find, easy to book, responsive owners.
Very well-kept property with wonderful views! Great amenities inside and out. View from the hot tub is amazing. Kayaks and life jackets were a very nice addition. You can easily put them in the water right from the back yard. Nice touches inside with the gaming table, foosball, and more! We played plenty of Pac Man. Kitchen has everything you need with quality cookware, spices, coffee and a nice snack basket. You can hear some road noise, but the house and amenities are very nice. All the parks are within 15 minutes and restaurants are 5 minutes away. We would definitely stay here again!
We had a great family vacation at this property, completed with a boat rental from bills marine just two doors down. House was very clean with only a few notable exceptions. Driveway/parking was ample for two SUVs and a super duty truck. Would love to stay there again.
Our group consisted of 2 families ranging in age from 15 - 55. This house was a great fit for us! There is a primary bedroom with full bath on the main level, and another in the basement downstairs. The main level also has a powder room, the kitchen, a spacious family room and kitchen table area. There is an exit to the deck where you find an outdoor table with chairs and a grill with a view overlooking the lake. In the basement, there is another family room area with the electronic board game table which everybody really liked. This level also exits to a deck which overlooks the lake and has a hot tub and seating. There is a spacious yard between the house and the lake with a firepit, kayaks, and a dock. Upstairs has a 3rd primary bedroom with full bath, and 2 additional bedrooms that share a full hall bath. One more level up, you'll find a loft with arcade games, a foosball table, and a futon. The house was well equipped, had starter paper products, and is located very close to shops and restaurants. My only complaint would be that there is quite a bit of road noise during the day, being right off of the major road running through Deep Creek. Of course, that's also what makes it so convenient to shops. I would not recommend this house for someone who has trouble with stairs, as you must descend stairs to reach the hot tub and to get out back to the lake. But otherwise, I'd recommend this house, without hesitation. The owners were very communicative and welcoming!
We really enjoyed our stay! The house is laid out nicely with a fully appointed kitchen, different levels for sleeping/living with the lower level great for movie night and boat watching. The three balconies provided beautiful views and being lakefront was amazing for boating, swimming, and kayaking! It is centrally located to shops and restaurants. There is quite a bit of traffic noise but it is easily overlooked by the setting and not noticeable in the back of the house. The house has a modern and mostly updated appeal. There were a few general maintenance issues but handled promptly by the host; communication was excellent! We really enjoyed our stay!
Hygge Memories thought of everything! This is a beautiful lake home with amazing lake views from every floor. It was so enjoyable staying waterfront and having the kayaks available. The house is located on a busy road, but you are also a very short distance from coffee, ice cream, the Honi Honi and so much more. Very convenient. Everything inside was clean and well maintained. The service was above and beyond. Our family planned a cornhole tournament with t-shirts and all. We were bummed when we couldn't find the cornhole game. When I inquired about them, I was informed that they were damaged from being left out in the rain. But they did not leave us hanging! Within hours of contacting them, they had found a local seller to deliver the games to us that very evening. Our tournament was saved! While I didn't expect it, I was so impressed with them going the extra mile (or two) to get us the games...delivered!
Our family of 12 with ages from 5 to 75 years old had a great time. The house is even closer to the water than it looks like in the photos. Having 3 master bedrooms was a bonus besides the other two bedrooms. The kids loved the game room. The hot tub was a hit too with young and old alike.
The house is located on a wide part of the lake and the view is beautiful. We rented a pontoon boat for a few days and docked it at the house. We used the two kayaks every day, fished from the dock, enjoyed Sâmores on a bonfire, and spent every evening relaxing on the very nice deck. This is a great place for a family or friendsâ getaway.
