About this property

The Brookie Cottage is a 2 bedroom fully equipped home in a beautiful setting on the Savage River near Deep Creek Lake, Maryland. The Savage is a cold water mountain stream that is ranked by Trout Unlimited as one of the top 100 streams in the country for Fly Fishing for wild trout. You will have access to 1000 feet of beautiful river front in an old forest setting and Savage River Outfitters next door is a full service Fly Shop with guide services and discounted rates for Orvis clothing and Fly Fishing gear. Hiking and biking are right out the front door, with mountain and river trails. Other rivers, such as the North Branch of the Potomac, the Casselman and the Yock are nearby, as well as some of the best wild Brook Trout streams in the country. Kayak or canoe on Savage River Lake/Reservoir just a few minutes away, or visit Deep Creek Lake 12 miles away. If you are looking for a getaway without all of the congestion and noise of Deep Creek Lake, take a look at the Savage River and all it has to offer. There is plenty of green, grassy space out back along the river to relax, explore, play and fish.

Great get away

Stayed for 3 nights and it was a perfect little cabin. Very shady and cool so if you tend to be a cold person be sure to bring sweatshirts and pants. About 30 minutes away from Deep Creek lake. Property is exactly as described. No issues at all with our stay.

Amazing cabin getaway

We don’t fish but this cabin was wonderful. The backyard right against the river is so peaceful and beautiful. Close to a lovely trail through the woods along the river. Close enough to Deep Creek lake and all the activities there. We loved it would definitely stay again. Mike was awesome!

Savage River - Brookie Cabin

Cabin was very clean and fishing was awesome. Location is perfect for Upper and Lower Savage. Close to the Potomac also. Check with the Fly Shop for flies.

Would stay again

House was great for our needs. Not many places you fish have a fly shop on property. Gave some great recommendations for day trips to see different water in the area. Would stay here again. Didn’t have cell service (which is my preference) - but just stating for others (Verizon) that would want to know.
