About this property

GREAT VALUE! The perfect cabin in the woods, 15 minutes away from Deep Creek.

Welcome to Fern Hill Cabin with a spacious living room, kitchen, a cozy loft with a queen bed and futon and private bedroom with a queen bed. On the first floor there's a full bath and on the second floor a 1/2 bath. You'll love spending time on the screened porch or just relaxing around the campfire. A short drive will get you to all the great spots the Deep Creek area has to offer. Please be advised a 4-wheel or all-wheel drive vehicle is needed for the winter months. My recommendation is from Nov. 1 to Apr. 15. Roads are plowed but the area can receive several inches of snow at any one time. Please be advised we provide no towels or linens for beds. Please bring your towels, sheets and pillowcases for queen beds (king size sheets would also work).

The cabin in the woods was exactly as advertised. A very well kept, secluded property away from the hustle. We very much enjoyed the close proximity to Deep Creek and the surrounding areas. Friendsville is a great little town to visit also. We need a break and this weekend have it to us.

A cozy cabin weekend

We had a great time during our stay. We were conveniently located to all the places we wanted to visit while still being tucked in the woods. The cabin had everything we needed and then some. It was such a cozy, cute cabin!

The communication from the hosts was great. We had a question about check out and the host responded quickly.Everything was neat and clean inside and the surrounding area was beautiful. We had a lot of fun watching the chipmunks and birds on the screened-in porch!It was very central for a lot of activities and hiking and every drive out of our cabin was beautiful. We went in early June and the mountain laurel was everywhere. It would be my first place to check availability for when we come to Deep Creek next!

Away from it all !

We stayed in this cabin, a handful of times it’s definitely peace and solitude! This last trip was definitely a very nice snow trip. The snowy scenery was beautiful. The plow truck was there and even shoveled our steps to the place. Can’t asked for anything more than that. we will be planning our next trip soon.

Go PSU

We were on our way to my son’s college football game at Fairmont State and Susan let us check in early on our way through to his game. Cabin is great and very clean. It was raining so we set on the screened porches and relaxed. Short drive to Deep Creek Lake Highly recommend this location and will be back.

Lovely and peaceful

I had a wonderful vacation here. The cabin was clean, well maintained, and stocked with everything you could need. The location was perfect for me to kayak the Upper Yough and surrounding rivers, access Deep Creek Lake, and enjoy some great road rides. Susan and John were easy to communicate with. I enjoyed my time very much.

Winter wonderland!

We had all kinds of plans to hike around the area but were so comfy and happy at the cabin that we just huddled down and enjoyed our down time! It was so cozy and relaxing. The hosts have thought of everything to make a guest comfortable! Ten out of ten and I’d go back tomorrow if I could!

Highly recommend!

Wonderful place to relax and unplug! Cabin was very clean, modern and well stocked. Beds comfy. Kitchen had everything we needed. Shower had great pressure. Stayed very warm even with it being negative temps outside. Enjoyed the little fireplace heater in the living room. Loved sitting in the loft on the rocking chair watching out the big windows as the snow fell. Enjoyed watching the birds at the feeders. Very quiet area, nice little hike in the woods. Owner was wonderful at communicating and gave us great advice about the area. It snowed about 18 inches while we were there, they were great about plowing the driveway. The screened porch would be a wonderful place to enjoy in warmer weather. Enjoyed winter hiking at Swallow Falls State Park and XC skiing at Herrington Manor State Park. Highly recommend!

Great little cabin

We enjoyed our stay. The only issue was that we wanted to watch the NCAA Basketball tournament, but with only streaming services available on the TV, we had difficulty with that. Otherwise, the cabin was exactly as we expected it to be.

Perfect Get Away

My husband and I had a lovely stay at the cabin. It was the cleanest property we have used to date and the check in process was seamless. The weather was gloomy, but the cozy cabin made the trip no less memorable. We had everything we needed. The screened in porch was our favorite spot for coffee and watching the sunset.

About the host

Hosted by Susan and John Forish

Host profile image
We started with our first cabin called Boulder Ridge Cabin and have meant such great people who loved the cabin we decided to purchase another one and make it as appealing as the first. We're interested in providing a comfortable atmosphere at a reasonable price.

Why they chose this property

We love the setting of this cabin.

What makes this property unique

You can travel around the area and enjoy all Garrett Co has to offer or just relax at the cabin with a camp fire, on the porch or inside the cabin relaxing with a good book or movie. A short trail will lead you to a bench where you can sit and relax surrounded by the solitude of the woods.
