Vacation 8/3-8/10

We enjoyed our week at Deep Creek. The house is in a great location. We rented a pontoon boat for the day and enjoyed having a dock to pull over. The house has great amenities. We really enjoyed the fire pit, hot tub and pool table. Now, the downside. The beds are very uncomfortable. They really need to be replaced. As much as we enjoyed our stay, I would not come back because of the beds.

Weekend getaway

This cabin was fantastic. Everything was exactly as described in the listing and "check-in" couldn't have been easier (they texted us the door code). Each floor of the house has a bedroom and full bathroom, which was an ideal scenario for our group of adult couples. We were also pleasantly surprised by how well equipped the kitchen was for cooking - this is usually an area that is generally lacking for vacation rentals. As some other reviewers have mentioned, the mattresses weren't the most comfortable we've ever slept on. However, this didn't detract from the weekend at all. 10/10 would stay here again.

Beautiful property

Everything was great, the hot tub and deck was wonderful and we loved the separation of the 3 floors for me and my partner (30ish) and my older family (60+). Proximity to the boat slip and lake were great. Only complaint is that the beds were terrible! The older folks complained about theirs on the main and second floor, ours on the basement level was so bad (like a boxspring) that we had to sleep on the couch one night and move a unused mattress from the second story up and down just to sleep. Overall 4.5/5 stars but they really need to spend the money on upgrading the beds soon. House was beautiful, just bring a mattress topper!

House needs updates

The house needs an updated kitchen area, utensils with new appliances. The current dishwasher and microwave were very loud when turned on. The rooms and basement got very cold at night. Uneven heating in the house. The sofas in the living room need an update. If its a pet friendly place there needs to be a fenced area. Overall, the place was nice and we enjoyed it. Distance to Wisp is about a 15 min drive.
