You are here

  1. Lake Front
    Any property that borders the state-owned ‘buffer strip.’ Lake Front means you have access to the water for swimming and a boat dock if applicable to your home. You can go directly to the water from your door with no road between. Lake Front does not necessarily mean you have a view of the water, since much of our shoreline is wooded.
  2. Ski Area
    Ski Area homes and units are within a 1mi driving distance to Wisp Resort Ticket Window and/or Lift Access. Ski Area homes may require you to drive a very short distance and/or cross a road by foot. Some homes under Lake Front, Lake Access or Lake Area may also be considered a Ski Area property.

Very large house with awesome theater room, sauna, hot tub, etc. Kids loved staying at a place right on the water.

So glad to hear you had a great time Jason. We strive to provide the best experience for our renters and love to hear when we’ve exceeded. Thank you for taking the time out to leave a review, and we hope to see you again in the near future!

While the architecture of the home is definitely unique and quirky, we ended up enjoying it. It was a bit chilly and over cast so we spent our evenings in front of the fireplace relaxing and enjoying the company of friends. I’m very glad none of us fell down the grand steps in to the main level!

We're glad you enjoyed your stay at Evening Star overall, Andrew! If you found that a home with fewer steps would better suit your group, our wonderful reservationists would be happy to lend a hand in finding a home that meets this need and any others you may have. When you're ready to begin planning your next visit to DCL, please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have or for recommendations for your next home-away-from-home. We'll keep our fingers crossed that your next getaway is warm and sunny! - Lainey, Railey Vacations

Let me start by saying this house was in the perfect location. The house nicely backed up to the lake and the kids enjoyed swimming off the dock the entire trip. The fire pit was a plus for the parents as we watched the kids play. House had everything we needed to make it a great vacation. The house needs some minor maintenance completed but nothing that hindered the great time we had on vacation.

I'm so happy to hear that your family had a great stay, Adam! We'll take a look at your notes for comments regarding potential home improvements. We appreciate your feedback and hope to host you again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

The location of the home was wonderful; great deck, campfire area and dock. The large living room was perfect for our family of 9. The younger boys enjoyed the media room. The house is old and needs a few items repaired or replaced.

Thanks for your feedback, Ken - we'll take a look at your notes for more information regarding areas of the home that you feel could be improved. I'm so glad to hear that you had a wonderful stay overall, and we hope you'll visit DCL again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

We loved the large deck and the easy slope to the lake made water activities very accessible. The house is close to McHenry making trips for groceries or dinner out very convenient. It's located on a quiet road, very peaceful surroundings.

Made My 40th Birthday Celebration Truly Unforgettable!

Reviewed on 2021-04-28 by Elizabeth

Our little family of four decided to celebrate my 40th birthday vacation by splurging on a lake house rental in Deep Creek, MD. The amenities and affordability of the Evening Star rental made everything a slam dunk! The house has a definite 1970s vibe which my husband really loved! It's a rambling home with a sauna, a hot tub, and an enormous kitchen which is right on the lake! We were able to take our boat and park it behind the house which was amazing. Although the house was a bit dated, we enjoyed every amenity and ever minute of our stay here.

Thank you for taking the time out to share your experience with us. We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at Evening Star and can't wait to have you back soon. ~Deborah Fike, Railey Vacations

We had a wonderful long weekend at Evening Star! Of course, we'll manage to have fun anywhere. It was great to have a house right on the lake. It was nice to have the beach front with a dock right there. We enjoyed our duck friends for the weekend too. The open concept of the home was perfect for our party of 8. We entertained ourselves utilizing the large kitchen/dining area, making a fire in the fire pit and lounging on the deck. The home could use quite a bit of updating no doubt, yet it made do for what we needed - a relaxing long weekend. Thank you!

I'm so happy to hear that you had a good stay at Evening Star, Sally! We'll take a look at your notes regarding potential improvements. Thanks for your feedback, and we hope to see you again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

We had an amazing time staying in the Evening Star for a long weekend getaway. The house was honestly even better in person than it's shown online.

We had a wonderful mini vacation and would definitely stay here again.
