Magnificent Weekend

Had Ana amazing long weekend at the Birch Bower. Beautiful house, immaculately designed, on a prime piece of lake front property. Terrific layout, with massive windows, well equipped kitchen, and perfect spa/grill area. Nothing better than watching snow storm roll through in front of the warm fire place. Excited to come back!

Birch Bower

Beautiful house at a lovely part of the lake. Very nicely decorated, comfortable and clean. Excellent communication by Red Barn. They clearly care about client experience - more so than other reality companies operating at Deep Creek.

A Dream Weekend

We have a tradition of travelling to a local ski area every Presidents Day and this year we found the Birch Bower and decided Wisp it is! Everyone was just enamored with the house, in fact, we could not stop talking about it. The house itself was just stunning but the layout and the thoughtful touches like the door that closed between the sleeping area and the main area, were just so wonderful. The kitchen is stocked with everything you could want and the space was just perfect for a large group. I even found myself taking pictures of the design touches in hopes of replicating them myself!
