What a wonderful week we had at Lure of the Lake! The home was beautiful, comfortable, clean, with a very well-equipped kitchen and spacious seating for our crew. The movie/ game room was great for our grandkids. We especially enjoyed the outside seating and our daily visits with a herd of deer who came into the yard. Loved the hot tub, too! We used the access to the Community Center for pickleball, playground and a very nice pool that the several days we went, had all to ourselves. We enjoyed the area attractions that were close by - Deep Creek State Park, and a hike at Swallow Falls. It was very easy and pleasant to communicate with Sean all along the way, from booking through our stay. We’d highly recommend this rental to others!
