About this property

Lured by the Lake | Expansive Decks, Lake Views!

Recently renovated, Lured by the Lake is the perfect spot to create lasting vacation memories with family and friends. It offers the ultimate combination of a convenient location, quality relaxation, and lake views from every living area.

Beautifully decorated with a warm and cheery spirit, the interior is instantly inviting. The main level offers an open floorplan that lends itself to entertaining and makes it easy to enjoy the company of your favorite people. In the winter, you can curl up on the large, sectional sofa in front of a crackling fire as you swap stories about your day on the slopes. In the summer, central AC will keep you comfortable when you are not exploring the outdoors. You can watch your favorite shows or a classic movie on the wall-mounted flat screen TV with a Blu-Ray player.

Ample seating in the dining area and at the breakfast bar makes sharing meals a breeze. The cooks in your group will appreciate the well-equipped kitchen that has attractive granite counters and stainless steel appliances. Doors leading to the deck will come in handy for afternoon BBQs. You can dine al fresco with the sights and sounds of nature all around you. For your convenience, the main level offers a half bath.

When you need a little quiet time, retreat to the main level primary suite that is outfitted with a king bed as well as a flat screen TV. This is a private haven that was designed with your comfort in mind. Deck access gives you an opportunity to step outside for a breath of fresh mountain air each morning.

Upstairs, you will find two well-appointed bedrooms each with a queen bed and flat screen TV. There is a full bath on this level as well.

Head to the lower level family room when you want to spend a fun evening in. A gas fireplace provides a cozy atmosphere as you rack 'em up on the pool table. The wall-mounted flat screen TV is perfect for watching your favorite team on crisp fall night. A wet bar with a mini-fridge keeps drinks and snacks handy. There is also a half bath in the adjacent hallway.

The lower level primary suite features a charming queen sized, four poster bed along with a sitting area, and flat screen TV. You will love having access to the lower level deck and being able to awake to views of the lake through the trees. Another bedroom is located on the lower level with two twin beds and a futon. This is a great space for the kids! They will have their own TV to keep them occupied before bedtime.

Expansive, multi-level decks that overlook the lake are truly a highlight of this home. You can sip your morning coffee as you watch boats float by in the summer and appreciate brilliant foliage in the fall. Throughout the year, you can stargaze from the warmth of the bubbling outdoor hot tub. This popular amenity soothes tired muscles and leaves you entirely relaxed.

On-the-water fun starts at your dock slip! Bring your own boat or rent one at a local marina to explore miles of shoreline and quiet coves.

The convenient location is off-the-beaten-path but is within 10-minutes or less from restaurants, shops, Deep Creek Lake State Park, and Garrett 8 Cinemas. Venture a little further to find four seasons of fun at Wisp Resort. Experience zip-lining, mountain biking, mountain coaster rides, skiing, ice skating, snow tubing and much more! Atop the mountain, you will find the Adventure Sports Center International where you can take a thrilling trip on their recirculating whitewater course or test your stamina with rock climbing.

Famous for endless adventures, the Deep Creek Lake area has something for every age and interest. Choose Lured by the Lake for your next vacation, and look forward to time well spent with your favorite people.

For your convenience, this home offers free wifi.

If your rental is listed as having a Boat Dock as an amenity provided with this property, this is subject to weather conditions, water levels, and other natural factors.

Nice Family Stay

Our stay was wonderful. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything needed to prepare meals for the 9 of us. The house was tastefully decorated and very spacious. Beds and couches were super comfy. We loved having the pool table and extra downstairs mini fridge. The weather was quite chilly, so the hot tub and fire pit were a big hit! There were a couple things I wish we had known. The property has a lot of stairs to get back & forth to the floating pier. The pier is shared with the other surrounding houses. The water way is crazy busy and appears to have no speed limits, making the lake rough, so we weren't able to just sit on the pier. We hauled our(4)kayaks/paddle boards to use, but due to all the stairs (70+) and the rough water, we didn't feel it was safe. The house is also very close to the neighboring houses and any outside noise travels. One of the neighbors did come over and ask us to turn down our music when we were in the hot tub. Sorry about that. Overall, it was a great place to stay and would recommend it for larger groups.

Family Getaway

This porperty was very accurate compared to the descriptions. The house was very clean and seemed well maintained. I have bad allergies/asthma and I am always very sensitive to vacation homes that are dusty or that have old water damage/mold. I didnt have any issues here! This house was large enough for multiple couples and families. We loved having access to the dock and being able to go swimming without taking the boat out. Everyone in our group had compliments about this stay!

A great summer stay

Great vacation home for the four of us and a friend for each of the kids. It has a great open floor plan and plenty of room to relax. The dock below the house was awesome for swimming and kayaking. We all enjoyed the pool table and fire pit after long days on the water. House has a large well equipped kitchen that allowed us to enjoy family dinners. The central location is near several restaurants and a cool state park with hiking trails and a great discovery center. The extra refrigerator at the basement bar was a surprise and a huge plus. We loved our time at Lured by the Lake and would highly recommend the house for any family looking to get away for a week at the lake.

Nice house but...

This was the second time myself and a group of friends stayed in this house. We loved it so much the first time that we had to come back. The house is very spacious, welcoming, and has great views. I was a bit taken aback by the bucket on the floor in the living room when we arrived. Soon found out it was because of a leak in the ceiling. We couldn't use the living room the last night of our stay because water droplets started hitting us on the head while we were hanging out watching tv. We called and they said they would send someone out the next day. We left right before the 10:00 check out time but never saw anyone before we left. Very disappointed that they rented out the house knowing there was a leak in the ceiling. I will find another house to stay at the next time we visit Deep Creek.

Relaxing

Tremendous opportunity to share with friends and family.. I did have some work related things that did become challenging because cell phone service and internet service was poor at best. Overall made it work however. Beautiful place.

Loved Lured!

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 absolutely loved this house! It was perfect for our 4 family vacation. We had plenty of room to spend time together and space for alone time as well. The house was clean and comfortable and well supplied. There are a lot of steps down to the dock (71 plus ramps) which is somewhat of a drawback for elders or those that are physically challenged but we managed. The house does need a better vacuum cleaner. We had 3 children with us so wanted to keep the floors clean so a better working model would have been great. Plenty of bath towels but only 2 kitchen towels which were inadequate for such a large group. Two small complaints is all we could come up with. A beautiful home in a perfect location. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone with a large group.

We will be lured again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our entire multi-generational party had a fantastic week. We enjoyed the pier on the lake where we could float, kayak, paddle board and swim. The hot tub and fire pit were enjoyable in the evening. The teenagers loved the pool table. Lots of gourmet meals were prepared in the spacious kitchen and on the grill. Beautiful views! The only drawback to this property would be if there was an elderly person in the party who would not be able to handle the many stairs to the lake. We are hoping to return next year!

Deep Creek Weekend Escape

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lured by the Lake. We had 4 couples which was perfect for the 5 bedroom house (2 master bedrooms with king beds and 2 bedrooms with queen beds). The decks were wonderful! We had meals outside and spent a lot of time at the fire pit and hot tub that were conveniently located next to each other. The property was newly renovated and clean. The Fireside Deli, Arrowhead Market and Honi Honi are all located nearby.

Great House!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was spacious, comfortable and clean. We had a problem with a breaker shutting off the a/c, but the management company fixed it promptly. Wish the description included the many, many steps down to the lake, but it was not insurmountable. Towels were less than number of sleeping accommodations, but we brought more from home. Three families, adult "kids" loved the pool table, the hot tub and the dock. View from deck is somewhat obstructed by trees, but they can't be trimmed. All in all, it was a fun week and a great rental house.
