About this house rental

If you and your family are ready to experience an authentic Deep Creek getaway, then the delightful lakefront home Ski Shore is the perfect choice! Located on a quiet cove on the southern end of the lake, this area is ideal for taking a peaceful stroll in the evenings or just enjoying being away it all.

Hardwood floors and wood accents create the perfect cabin-style ambience throughout the main level. It is easy to imagine gathering with loved ones in the great room to watch a favorite movie on the Blu Ray or curl up in front of a crackling fire in the massive stone fireplace. During the summer months, central AC will keep you cool.

The eat-in kitchen is well equipped whether you are whipping up a quick picnic lunch or making a big homestyle breakfast.

The main level also offers a full bath with a shower only and two of bedrooms both with queen sized beds. Decorated with your comfort in mind, you will wake up refreshed and ready to tackle new adventures!

Head down the spiral staircase to find the family room that expands your living space. You can watch TV while the kids can break out the board games or play foosball. There is also a bedroom with a queen bed and a full bath on this level.

Head outside and let the real adventure begin! The partially covered deck overlooks the lake and will become your own private outdoor oasis. Each morning, you can take in the gorgeous views as you unwind on the deck with a cup of hot coffee.

Summer days were meant to be spent in the water and the stone steps going down to the your private dock allows you to do just that! Rent a boat or just pass your time idly swimming and playing in the lake. The dock ladder is an added plus and a true convenience for getting in and out of the water. Bring a boat, or rent one locally, to cruise quiet coves and miles of shoreline.

The back patio has a built-in fireplace that is ideal for toasting marshmallows on crisp mountain nights. After the kids go to bed, you can stargaze and relax in the bubbling outdoor hot tub.

Ski Shore is off the beaten path yet still within a ten to fifteen-minute drive from favorite attractions, restaurants and shops. There is something for everyone in your crew! Nature lovers can explore the area's eight state parks that have hiking trails, abundant wildlife, cross country skiing and more. The adrenaline junkie in your group will enjoy white water rafting at the Adventure Sports Center or soaring through the air on the zipline at Monkey Business Adventure Park. For those that prefer a more leisurely pace, there are lots of antique shops in Oakland's historic downtown along with great diners and museums.

The lake is calling your name, so reserve today to begin planning your next Deep Creek escape at Ski Shore!

Great location and cottage. Wish the outside had been tidied up a bit and the outside furniture wasn't packed away. The door handle and deck screen were both damaged upon arrival, but property management was quick to acknowledge when made aware. Overall great stay, and would happily visit again.

The house was cozy and loved having a wood fireplace. Didnt get a chance to use the hot tub but it was in a covered area on deck.

Very nice cabin. Clean and cozy. Steep hill down to the dock.The dock was removed the second day into our stay. Would have been nice if they had waited until we left. Kitchen was well stocked. Would stay again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a very enjoyable stay at this house. It’s best feature are the three stories of windows offering a wonderful of the lake. We had cool days and a lot of rain our week, yet could enjoy the views from indoors. It is situated on a long cove, our favorite spot on the lake. This is our second time renting on this cove. Both visits we have spent much time out on the lake, exploring in our canoe. It was steep to get it down to the lake, but worh it. I can see that updates have been made to the house like new kitchen appliances and furniture in the basement family room. The 2 couches in the main floor living room are greatly in need of replacement. The reclining mechanisms are either broken or need replacing. The area rugs on that floor are worn and dirty, also in need of immediate replacement. Great outdoor furniture on both decks, and down by the lake. The lower deck and steps to the lake are in need of a power wash. It was a very rainy summer and they have become mossy and developed a slick coating wooden steps and decks get. I slipped several times, and on our last evening slipped and fell. I did make Taylor Made aware of the need for a power wash so hopefully this was taken care of. The hot tub was great, but dirty when we arrived. I called and a cleaner was sent out the next afternoon. We would certainly stay in the house again.
