Great New Years Stay!

We had 3 families stay for 3 nights at American Pride over NYE. We had a wonderful stay and the home was perfect for our needs. We loved the quiet location in the woods with the hot tub and the kids loved spending a few hours at the community pool. The home had ample space for all of us and allowed us to have a great time ringing in 2025! My only concern with the home was the downstairs bathroom had a sewer smell - my husband said it looked like there may be a leak behind the toilet which could be easily fixed. Other than that, no complaints!!

Nice holiday get away!

The house definitely met all of our needs. The kitchen is equipped well. Family enjoyed the gas fireplace in the main family room. It really added warmth to the room. We loved sitting around the fire pit. Unfortunately, the firewood that was there was very wet and very difficult to burn. We had to go out and buy our firewood. When we arrived, the code to the door did not work. But I was very impressed that a person actually answered the number they had given us to use. It was taken care of quickly. Wish we could have used the indoor pool but it was closed due to COVID.

American Pride, A Great Home In The Blakesley Community At DCL

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I can only say Excellent things about American Pride. The house is in a great area of DCL. The house has everything that you could want and more. The kitchen has enough of everything you could ever need to cook for a large group of people. The rooms are large and clean. The yard is beautiful and the development is where I would live. The people are great and if you like Deer you will see them in the area around this house. As far as Taylor-Made goes I have been renting here for 14 years now and we are very happy with Taylor-Made and the staff. They are the Best rental company. They will go out of there way to make you happy. We have rented from other rental companies in the DCL area and they were ok, but they did not do what TM does for there customers. We can only say Excelent things about American Pride and Taylor-Made.The house is also, local to the state parks and a restaurant called Little Sandys. This is the best little restaurant for all meals but they defently have the Best breakfast in DCL. The Blue Berry Pancakes are to die for. The staff there is also Excellent. I could keep going on but I will run out of characters. Chris and Erika Reynik

Great lake visit

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful week at American Pride. The house was well outfitted for our needs. The private hot tub was nicely located out back in a gazebo. The horse shoe pit was nice as well as the firepit (corn hole was nice too although bags were missing-- they quickly replaced them for us when we reported it). Short walk to the dock where we kept a boat for a few days. Wish there was a common area or small beach/water entry point near the dock. Used the tennis courts and basketball hoops. Very nice, private neighborhood for walking dogs.

Family Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a week with our whole family gathering. Deep Creek was a great location central for everyone out of town making travel easy. American Pride provided enough space for all 15 ages 3 to 89 to gather, play, and enjoy our time. If the weather had cooperated out trip would have been better with more time in/on the water.

DCL Memorial weekend

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second time at American Pride. It didn't disappoint. The house was very clean and roomy. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. The beds in all 5 bedrooms were very comfortable. The best night sleep we ever had out of all our past rentals. The deck is amazing with plenty of outdoor furniture for the large wrap around deck. The kids had so much fun running around playing in the huge yard and doing s'mores around the fire pit. Loved the privacy and of course the hot tub was fantastic! This house is so awesome! We will be back for a 3rd visit!

Perfect and Relaxing

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a group 0f 11 adults and 2 children (8 and 5 months). The house was the perfect size and the location couldn't have been better for our group. The house was equipped with everything we needed to do a few big meals. The house was clean when we arrived and we had no major issues. The only minor issues we had was that the Master Bath Jacuzzi tub , when emptied, left a very heavy residue in the tub and one time the water looked like lake water. We would stay at this house again, and we hope to sometime in the warmer months.

Great Rental Property

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was beautiful and supplied with all of the amenities we look for in a rental. Location was perfect for us. We love the Blakeslee community. The only minor issue was on the day we were leaving there was a maintenance person from Taylor Made that came to perform some work inside the house. This was not convenient for us as we had 2 dogs with us and were clearing up and packing to leave. We asked the man to come back after 12 noon which was our time to check out.

We enjoyed our vacation, the house and Blakeslee's amenities. The new corn hole game was a pleasant surprise.

Enjoyable Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We found the cabin to be adequate and in a lovely setting with good access to the dock. We especially enjoyed access to an indoor pool since the week we were there was chillier and a bit rainy. We also enjoyed the fire ring. The kitchen was well stocked, except for the fact that there were no hot pads for the oven. As a family who usually eats in and does a lot of cooking, we would recommend stocking hot pads.
