About this property
Brownie Cottage on Savage River, Fly Fishing, Skiing, Near Deep Creek Lake
The Brownie Cottage is on the Savage River in Western Maryland near Deep Creek Lake (3 hours from DC/Baltimore and 2 hours from Pittsburgh). Right on the Savage River, with 1000 feet of private river access to year round fishing on one of the top 100 trout streams in the US right out the back door. The address is 2675 Savage River Road, Swanton, MD 21561
The Cottage does have Dish TV, but to access WIFI, you have to either go inside the fly shop or sit at our outside table to access our router. We are happy to provide password inside Flyshop.
Nearby rivers include the North Branch of the Potomac (also ranked in the top 100 trout streams), Casselman and 'Yock'. Miles of wild brook trout streams and the pristine Savage River Reservoir/Lake are minutes away. Skiing at Wisp Resort 30 minutes away, or Cross Country skiing at nearby New Germany Park. Hunting/Hiking on Big Savage Mountain/Savage River Forest is right out the front door. Complete Fly Fishing tackle/outfitting next door at Savage River Outfitters, a full service Orvis Dealer and Fly Shop. Take advantage of all Orvis Sales, as well as save on shipping. If we don't have it, we will order for you and drop ship to your house at no charge.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Mike Evans

After retiring from business in the D.C. area, I wanted a small business that allowed me to spend time doing what I love to do most, Fish! My wife, Suzanne, and I have eight grown children, and seven grandchildren, and with this property, I have room for them to visit!
Why they chose this property
There is no prettier place than the Savage River, all of the seasons offer their own special brand of beauty. The fishing is so good, I have only to walk out the back door to find it!
What makes this property unique
Fishing is number one, but there are hiking trails in the adjoining Savage River Forest, kayaking on the river during special releases, but most of the time, the Savage River Lake is calm and easy for any level of boater (non-motorized only). Biking on the Savage River Road is very popular with those who enjoy hill-climbing, not for the feint of heart!
