Perfect.

This property feels beautifully private but is accessible to all the fun of the lake. Great layou for gathering, to accommodate noisy family members and anybody who wants a little bit of privacy too. The views are stunning. There are trails in walking distance. We look forward to staying in warmer weather, but have stayed here twice: once in snow, once for Thanksgiving. Beautiful. We chose this house because my mother has mobility issues. She was able to stay in the master bedroom, and be a part of everything, including the feel of being “in the woods.” Our young adult children enjoyed each other in the little party/ billiard room and the hot tub. Best hot tub set up: right off the laundry room and bathroom for an easy in-and-out in the crisp weather!

Spacious and well-stocked

Great house on the WISP side of the lake - kitchen was loaded up with useful items. Great room was spacious and comfortable (especially the massive couch). Deck, dock, hot tub and pool table made the vacation :)

Family vacation

Our time at Shadybrook was wonderful. When we arrived, the house was in immaculate condition, and simple items such as toilet paper, tissues, and trash bags were there! With 3 cooks the kitchen was a dream relative to other vacation houses we’ve stayed at. There was ample cookware, and a drawer of spices which we loved. The living area was conducive to family time, and the back deck was perfect. The walkway next to the house with the little stream was so soothing. The check-in was a breeze! We would highly recommend Shadybrook as a vacation home, and would consider staying here in the future.

Disappointing Rental Agent

The property itself is very nice. It’s secluded and wildlife abounds. My wife and daughter saw a bear cross the driveway and my granddaughters and their parents saw a bear cub cross another driveway nearby. My issues involve the rental agent. After having returned a signed rental agreement and paying for the rental, I was asked to sign an amended rental agreement. As it would have been difficult getting all the necessary signatures, I said I would sign the agreement and get the rest of the signatures when we arrived. They agreed. A few days later I was told this was insufficient and when I pushed back, I was told that they wouldn’t give access to the property without the signed revised rental agreement. But for the fact that my grandchildren would have been very disappointed, I would have not signed and asked for my money back, as one party cannot alter a previously agreed upon contract. Additionally, several days into the rental I became aware that, at least, one of the cameras on the outside of the property was live and was being monitored. That made myself and the rest of my family very uncomfortable. I think potential renters should be made aware, up front, that cameras are live. I didn’t see any cameras inside the property, but I can’t be sure there weren’t any. For this reason, we left the property several days early.

Perfect lake stay

We had a great time at Deep Creek Lake. The house location was perfect - the cove was calm and great for swimming, and we made good use of the dock slip by bringing our boat. Was easy to get to McHenry and associated kids activities. Would absolutely stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by Shadybrook

Why they chose this property

Located on a cul-de-sac, private cove on the lake, close proximity to ski resort, Swallow Falls and other parks, grocer, restaurants and much more.
New kitchen, large deck overlooking the lake, short walk to the lake, semi-private dock.
Equipped and supplied with things needed like, ice, wood, gas for grill, soaps, TP, PT ect.,
so that you can easily start your vacation as soon as you arrive.

What makes this property unique

The house is located at the end of a road, the cove is nice in that you won't have the boat traffic you would have on the main part of the lake. The stream allows for a peaceful and tranquil setting. The semi private dock is nice in that you most likely can find some time that you can be alone and enjoy the peace of the cove.
Also, the sun hits the dock most of the day, which is good as the water can be cool as the nearby stream falls into the lake at that point. The water supplied by the stream helps keep the water in the cove clear and clean as well. The house sits in the woods which supplies refuge from the sun if you need it. Note: the temperature on the deck will be cooler than the dock temperature. So don't be fooled that it may be too cold to swim. The dock temperature tends to be at least 5 degrees warmer than the deck when the suns out.
