Absolutely beautiful. If you're thinking about it, then do it. Well worth it. The home was enough accommodation for my family of 8. The vicinity to activities, stores, and the lake was perfect. It rained for two days while there, but because of the activities provided in the home and the pool, we were all satisfied. Kitchen was perfect for my cooking family. What a great time and we'll use your facility again. Thank you 😊

Hi Theodesa! It's great to hear that Boats & Snow was the perfect rental for you and your family! We love to hear that the amenities were well equipped and a savior with the rain! Thank you so much for the kind review and please come see us again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

Nice Location

Location was nice. The pool was nice, the water was a bit chilly though. Would have been nice to have it heated warmer for my grandson. The property was nice but we didn't care for the interruptions from maintenance during our stay. Day 1 the rental company had a cable repairman coming to replace a cable box and when the repairman showed up he didn't know what he was supposed to fix so we had to call the rental company and give my phone to the cable man so they could talk to each other. I mentioned about the cold water so they sent out a pool maintenance person the same day and he said he adjusted the heater to heat the water to 84 which was still chilly. Then again on day 4 the pool maintenance guy showed up unannounced to check the chemicals in the pool and we don't get up early while on vacation. Luckily my daughter was up and let him in but with the lack of privacy on the main floor (no curtains) she was downstairs in her pajamas and since we were checking out the next day I don't understand why the pool technician didn't show up then to add the chemicals because we were not allowed to use the pool for an hour after he left and if he had to add more chemicals it would have been 2 hours. Other than that the property was nice, but a lot of steps.

Nice place just needed more attention to the cleaning department

Our stay at Boats & Snow was wonderful. It's hard to find a home to fit our large family and this was perfect. The kitchen was amazing and well thought out. We had everything we needed. As far as the amenities, having the pool is a plus. It was a very nice pool and a great place to sit and warm up onthe cold days. the hot tubs were also well used. For our family, it was about being togther. The house was well designed for gathering space, but also had things to do on each floor such as pool tables, arcade and video games which also gave everyone space to do what they wanted. We would definitely go back when the weather is warmer to enjoy the outdoor activities around the lake.

Thank you for your detailed review of Boats and Snow, Leslie. We're so happy to know that your large family was so well accommodated with enough space to spread out or gather as desired. I think quality family time together is a pretty special commodity these days. The Deep Creek Lake area is lovely during all seasons, so a trip back when the weather is warmer sounds like a great adventure for your family. We're looking forward to hosting you again soon. - Susan, Railey Vacations

Our family spent a wonderful weekend in Deep Creek and Railey Rentals provided top notch service! From the welcome bag, to the visit from a technician for an ice maker problem, they were kind, helpful and extremely courteous. We would book another rental through Railey in a heartbeat. The home we rented was immaculate, and perfect for our large extended family, and everyone had a great time! Thanks for the memories!

Thank you for this wonderful review, Amy! We are so glad that your stay was top-notch and we hope you’ll visit us again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations
