About this house rental

Name: Paws and Relax Lodge | Bedrooms: 4 | Bathrooms: 3.5 | Sleeps: 10 | Access: Lake Area | Dogs Welcome (Max. 2) | MUST BE 24+ YEARS TO RENT | Free WIFI Provided

DESCRIPTION:
Take some time for yourself and your furry friends at Paws and Relax Lodge. This cozy, dog friendly home has everything you need to sit back, relax, and breathe in the fresh mountain air. Dog crates, beds, and leashes can be found at the home in order to save you some extra packing room too! Mornings and evening can be spent on the expansive wrap deck and around the outdoor fireplace. And afternoon walks around the community with your furry friend are the perfect way to stretch your legs. The sectionals in the main and lower level living spaces were just made for movie marathons, board game nights and curling up in front of the fire on snowy or rainy days. Dig into the supplied board and card games and gather around for a night of friendly competition. Take the competition outside and see who will reign as corn hole champion during your stay. In just a short drive, you’ll find yourself in the mist of all that Deep Creek Lake has to offer. Fantastic restaurants (many which have outside seating so your furry friend can join), great shops, and plenty of adventure-filled activities like hiking or swimming at the State Park, mini golf, go-karts, arcades and more! After a busy day around the area, hop in the hot tub and let the bubbles soothe your muscles and stresses. Visit in the winter to enjoy skiing and snowboarding at the Wisp Resort or ice fishing on the lake! No matter the season, Paws and Relax Lodge is the perfect place to start and end your day. Book your stay today!

We welcome any dog which you know to be well-socialized, trained, and friendly in any situation involving others, both human and canine, as there may be nearby dogs at neighboring properties. However, due to restrictions in place by homeowner insurance policies, breeds listed as most aggressive are banned from all rentals, regardless of the training and temperament of the individual dog.

The house was beautiful and as advertised. Very dog friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

The property was really nice, clean and comfortable. Spacious enough for 7 adults, very dog-friendly too. We enjoyed eating on the deck, the fire pit, games. We had a problem with the wi-fi but it was promptly attended to by the property management co.

Overall a great stay! The property was very clean and well-equipped. The kids had a lot of fun with the electronic hunting game and the shuffleboard. The hot tub is beautiful and we had a fire each night it wasn’t raining. We did have a small issue when a breaker blew for no apparent reason one evening and we didn’t have access to the breaker box to flip it back on. The only other issue was with a general lack of water pressure in the showers. The girls had a heck of a time rinsing their hair!! Overall, a wonderful property and great experience!!
