Amazing home for a perfect getaway

We just returned from an unforgettable stay at a beautiful home in Deep Creek, and I can’t say enough good things about it! The house was absolutely stunning—immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. From the moment we walked in, we could tell how much care had gone into maintaining and preparing the space.One of our favorite parts was sitting out on the spacious deck—it was so peaceful and quiet, with a cozy fireplace and a TV that made it perfect for unwinding and enjoying the fresh mountain air. The location was also perfect—an easy, quick drive to everything Deep Creek has to offer, yet tucked away enough to feel like a private retreat.The amazing game room was another highlight, complete with a fitness area that made it easy to sneak in a workout or just enjoy some downtime. This home truly had it all.It was the perfect blend of luxury and comfort. We’re already talking about when we can come back! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, clean, and gorgeous retreat in Deep Creek.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review Haley! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you had an unforgettable stay at our home in Deep Creek. It warms our hearts to know that you found the house stunning, clean, and beautifully decorated—our team works hard to ensure every detail is perfect for our guests! We're glad you enjoyed relaxing on the spacious deck; it truly is a special spot for unwinding while soaking in the fresh mountain air. It's fantastic that you appreciated both the peacefulness of the location and its proximity to all that Deep Creek has to offer. The game room is definitely a highlight! We're delighted that you took advantage of both the fitness area and downtime options available there. Your recommendation means so much to us, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for another luxurious retreat whenever you're ready! Madison, Railey Vacations

Exceptional Rental

I recently stayed at A Hidden Gem with my family, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a more peaceful and convenient getaway. It was located amongst tall, beautiful trees. The property felt like a private retreat. My family specifically loved waking up in the morning and enjoying a cup of coffee on the massive porch filled with many rocking chairs listening to the quietness of the bird and leaves. We also enjoyed a nice movie night on the back deck with the wood burning fire underneath the tv, and enjoyed playing all of the games that the home had to offer. We were just 7 minutes away from Whitewater Rafting and Wisp Ski Resort. We also enjoyed a nice dinner at UNO which was an easy 15 minute drive. Our family made wonderful memories in this spacious and clean home. We will definitely be back soon and recommend to everyone!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Ashley! We’re happy you and your family had such a peaceful and enjoyable getaway at A Hidden Gem. It sounds like you made some truly special memories together! We’re glad you appreciated the beautiful surroundings—there’s nothing quite like sipping coffee on the porch while listening to nature! It’s also fantastic to know that you enjoyed movie nights by the fire and all the fun games we have available. It’s great that our location worked well for your adventures at Whitewater Rafting and Wisp Ski Resort, as well as your dinner outing at UNO! We can’t wait to welcome you back for another stay soon. Thank you for recommending us; it means a lot! Madison, Railey Vacations
