  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.

Beautiful home, my family and I enjoyed the warmth and coziness of this home. The lastnight the WiFi went out and we couldn't watch TV or use our cellphones. It came back on the next morning but we were checking out.

Thank you for the review Corey! We apologize for the issue concerning the Wi-Fi and will be sure to have our IT department to examine this to ensure it is in working order for future rentals! Otherwise we are happy yo hear that you had a comfortable time with us and please come see us again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

Lovely home located in a beautiful and quiet location on the lake. The house is set apart from other homes at the very end of the Lake Forest Estates community. We’ve stayed in many houses in different lake locations over the years, but we enjoyed this spot more than any other. The house is nicely furnished and kitchen is well equipped. We would recommend this rental, and in fact we’ve already secured it for next year.

Glistening Waters was just what we needed! The lake view and sunrise was truly breathtaking. Loved that we were deep in the forest and on the lake at the same time. tucked away from traffic and crowds gave time to connect and catch up with friends. The Kitchen was stocked with every utensil and cookware imaginable. The "adult children" claimed the downstairs space as their own weekend retreat, with a pool table, 4 sleeping areas and 3 TVs, who wouldn't ! We enjoyed the firepit, with tossel caps on our heads and smiles on our faces! Oh and HOT TUB, extra Bonus!! Will definitely be back and will always rent from Railey Vacation Rentals. They went above and beyond when needed!

Just what the doctor ordered! We're so glad you had a fun and relaxing getaway at Glistening Waters, Debbie, and are happy we could lend a hand whenever it was needed! We can't wait to host you again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

As a first-timer to Deep Creek I didn't know what to expect. Glistening Waters exceeded my expectations in every way. We arrived to a snow plowed driveway, entrance steps & porch and an adequate amount of firewood for our stay. The home was clean and inviting and I was happy to find everything we needed in the kitchen and. Plenty of room for us to spread out, with TVs, books, and the huge selection of board games was fun. The view is stunning from the deck as well as sitting by the fireplace. I was looking for some time to destress and and certainly found the perfect respite at Glistening Waters. Can't wait to go back.

Robin, thank you for allowing us to host your first experience at Deep Creek! We are happy the property and services met your expectations! We hope you will come back again! - Seneca, Railey Vacations

Tranquility on the lake in the Woods

Reviewed on 2020-11-11 by Stephanie

The home is fantastic, nestled deep in a development where we watched deer, chipmunks and squirrels every morning. A gem of a location: close to Swallow Falls, McHenry and Oakland. The community pier was adjacent to the property which was convenient for daily access. Having stayed in quite a few rentals in the area, my family felt this was situated the best with beautiful water views while nestled in the woods. The open foyer flowed nicely into the living room creating a great spot for the kids to dance and play. The kitchen was surprisingly large with lots of utensils and plates for entertaining. This was the perfect rental for a family + grandparents. We thought it might be a little tight if there were too many little kids but for us (though we would have used the basement more if that was the case), it was perfect.

Thanks for this great review, Stephanie! We are so happy to hear that Glistening Waters was well-loved during your stay. Please don't hesitate to visit again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations

We had an incredible stay at Glistening Waters. The photos on the listening didn't do the property justice-- it is absolutely gorgeous, and perfectly serene. The property is at the end of the court, right next to the boat dock, and my kids spent hours climbing the rocks and exploring the shore. Sunrise over the lake was stunning, and you are just far enough form neighbors that you feel like you are in your own world out there. We loved having a hot tub and fire pit on property, and made good use of them throughout our stay. The home was welcoming, comfortable, and clean. Kitchen was well stocked with all of our cooking needs, and we loved having the pool table downstairs. It was really nice to have two different living areas too, so that the kids could have their own space downstairs when they wanted to. We could not have been happier with our choice to rent at Glistening Waters!

What a wonderful review, Kristin! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're so glad that your family enjoyed every second of your stay at Glistening Waters, and we hope you'll visit again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations
