Description

DESCRIPTION:
Escape the stress of the day-to-day with a restful vacation at The Breakaway! Step into this cozy cabin and feel right at home, welcomed by warm woods, comfy furnishings, and playful knick-knacks. Surrounded by trees, summers at The Breakaway are green and lush, and the deck becomes the perfect place to grill up your favorite vacation meals, made better only by the tinkling of wind chimes in the breeze. When the heat swells, pack your leftovers into a cooler, grab the sunblock, and take a short drive to the lake for hours of fun in the water. Autumn and winter are serene in the Sky Valley community, and its walkable roads allow you to get out and enjoy the changing the leaves and the gentle snowfall at your leisure.

Scope out your favorite spot on the couch and admire Deep Creek’s natural beauty through two sliding glass doors, all while being warmed by the roaring fireplace. In just a few miles, you can find a variety of adventure-packed activities for all ages! From hitting the greens at the Thousand Acres Golf Course to hiking at the State Park, to axe throwing, go-karts, and more you can ensure your getaway is full of fun for everyone.

When you’re ready to relax, we’re ready to have you!

We love staying at this home away from home. Not to far from local attractions, secluded and away from the hustle bustle. Have been renting this home for the past 3 years. Our Shih Tzu loves sitting by the fireplace while we are in hot tub. My husband and I loved watching the deer wonder throughout the snow while we had our coffee or wine. Definitely booking again next year.

We're thrilled to hear that you consider our place your home away from home David! It’s fantastic that you’ve found the perfect balance between enjoying local attractions and having a peaceful retreat. We’re especially happy that your Shih Tzu enjoys cozying up by the fireplace while you relax in the hot tub—what a delightful way to spend time together! Watching deer wander through the snow with a warm drink sounds like a magical experience. Your continued support over these past three years means so much to us, and we can’t wait to welcome you back next year for more memorable moments! Madison, Railey Vacations

Although we did enjoy our stay. Being in the forest was great! The deck was nice and the home had very nice flow. The kitchen was awesome and updated. New frig, stove microwave and dishwasher. Nicely stocked. If the home had AC I think it would have been much better. And a comfy couch. The Sky Valley area is secluded with very little street traffic, but not far from the lake and amenities.

Hi Tracy! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay in our forest home and found the deck and overall flow of the house to your liking. It's great that you appreciated the updated kitchen with its new appliances and well-stocked supplies. We understand your desire for air conditioning and a more comfortable couch, and we appreciate your suggestions for improvement. Your comments will be taken into consideration as we strive to enhance our guests' experience. We are pleased that you found the Sky Valley area peaceful and convenient in terms of proximity to the lake and amenities. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future. Madison, Railey Vacations

Website said lake access but quite a distance from main portion of lake. Poor lighting in kitchen, bugs on bathroom floor when arrived. Trash disposal was inconvenient. Otherwise, very cozy with nice porch and hot tub.

Hi Barry! We appreciate you for taking the time out to leave us with your valuable feedback and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the proximity misrepresentation of the lake access from the main portion of the lake. Your feedback regarding the poor lighting in the kitchen and the presence of bugs on the bathroom floor upon arrival is noted and will be passed along to our homeowners as well as our housekeeping staff to ensure that it is promptly taken care of. Regarding the inconvenience with trash disposal, we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused but we do have little control over it due to the homes location in the HOA. Otherwise we are pleased to hear that you found the property to be cozy with a nice porch and hot tub. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide you with an improved experience. Madison, Railey Vacations

Pros: Kitchen - Super well stocked kitchen and really nice appliances. The stove/oven are great, the external toaster oven is also an Air Fryer. Two different coffee makers were great, too. The kitchen is also stocked with tons of tools, pots/pans, tupperware, bakeware, and even some of the core spices if you need them. There are blenders, crockpots, hand mixers, knives, etc. One of the best rental units in terms of kitchen cookware/tools that I've been in. Size - If you're a small group or just a couple with their pup, the size of the unit is great. It has a good sized primary room with a king, a queen bed in the second room, and the third room can be an office or you can use the futon. In addition, its super convenient to walk your dog with two entrances to the deck. Hot Tub - The hot tub is right outside of one of the sliding glass doors, so if your whole party isn't in the tub, it doesnt feel like you're away from "the party" like many units who have hot tubs below the deck. Cons: The Fridge does not have an ice maker or a water dispenser, so bring bottled water or prepare to use/drink the tap water. The fireplace doesn't have doors to shut/open so you cant quite suffocate the fire when its time to go to bed. Also, the fireplace grate is so small its hard to balance a good bit of logs in there. Lastly, we only used the King bed, but it was extremely uncomfortable. It was "ok" to sleep on your back or stomach, but extremely hard to sleep on your side. As others have said, the trash situation in Sky Valley is a bit annoying and confusing. Lastly, the couch is also easy to tip and move when the recliners are out - it needs to be weighted down or attached to each section of the sectional or something. The location of Sky Valley is not *far* but its also not close to Wisp or the rest of the downtown. ~25 min drive. Overall - would definitely stay again. The house is definitely owned and cared for by a family and not just a rental. That shows!

Wow Randall, we appreciate you taking the time out to leave us such a thoughtful and informative review. We will be sure to relay the information concerning the fireplace, the couch and king size bed to the homeowners for future consideration of improvements. We do apologize for the frustration over the trash in sky valley, and unfortunately it is regulated by the HOA out there and is out of our control. However we are so pleased to hear that overall the home was a hit and that you and your family enjoyed all of the time, effort, and detail that the homeowners have put into The breakaway. Again thank you for leaving us a review and we hope to have the chance to rent to you again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

The house very nice and cozy…definitely enjoyed the beautiful fireplace and hot tub. Checking in was a little crazy….when I got their their were people their still and I was suppose to check in at 1…they said they had no idea someone was checking in early. I had to wait for them to pack up and leave before I could entire the home…however I was reimbursed the money I paid to enter the home early so that was definitely a plus. We had do a little bit of cleaning up after that couple has left but other then that the place was very nice.

Hi Joellen! Thank you for taking the time out to leave us a review! Sorry to hear about your check in experience but we are glad we were able to remedy the issue by reimbursing you!
