The two home setup is great for large groups. Plenty of space to spread out, or gather together. Location great for area hiking. Looking forward to coming back with my group next year!

Hello, Mandy, we are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Log Retreat! It's good to know that this configuration worked for your group. We will certainly look forward to hosting you again.

Great location and beautiful homes for a large party. We loved using the dog park to watch the pups run around. Hot tub, fire place inside, and fire pit outside- this house had everything for a perfect ski weekend! My only negative was Railey vacations, they emailed our code to get in to the wrong email and then the code didn’t work for the 2nd property. Once that was sorted and we could get in it was a great experience!

Hi Lauren! We appreciate you taking the time out to leave us with your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience concerning the issue with the door code. It’s great to hear that you and your group had a great time at Log Retreat and we hope have the opportunity to rent to you again in the future! Madison, Railey Vacations

Great place for our 8th annual family vacation to DCL. Quiet, private and a bit secluded from the hustle and bustle! Age range 2 months to 73 yrs and there was something for everyone. Firepit was great for nightly s'mores. Kids loved the swing set/play structure. The yard allowed us to play croquet and frisbee golf. The tennis/basketball court was also used for kids and their scooters. The dog run was large and perfect for our dogs to run and exercise unleashed. Everything inside was in great shape. Our only regret was not being closer to the water (but we knew that when we signed up)! Would definitely return to Log Retreat!!

Wow! We appreciate you taking the time out to leave us a review and are so happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed your time at Log Retreat Lisa! We strive to create the best rental experience possible and love to hear when we’ve succeeded! Looking forward to seeing you here at DCL again in the future!

Great for Large Groups - Not Really Impressed with Condition

Reviewed on 2022-06-08 by Sarah Fronczek

We stayed there with several other families and we were pleased with the number of bedrooms and space to accommodate that many people. I was extremely disappointed in the lawn upkeep. The grass had clearly not been cut in awhile and was up past my ankles, which made playing with the kids in the yard very uncomfortable. One of our guests got a tick on his leg from walking with his kid around the playset area. The condition of the furniture throughout the houses was not great, very worn, throw pillows with holes, and one patio chair that is ready to break if someone tries to sit back in it. The grill at Log Mahal is missing a drip tray which caused it to make a huge mess when grilling. The TV in the living room on the main floor was broken, lines going up and down the right side of the screen and we couldn't figure out how to put anything on to watch, seemed there was no cable/streaming services etc. that would work. Not a huge deal as we don't watch TV very often on our trips, but it's nice to be able to put something on for kids when they need some downtime. We did enjoy the firepit and the kids loved riding their bikes and scooters on the large paved driveway. The temperature control in the house was not ideal either. The 3rd floor of Log Mahal was very hot so the air had to be turned down to help cool it, but then the people in the basement froze. I would consider renting again, but only with the assurance that the grass would be cut before our arrival, as that was the biggest disappointment.

Hi, Sarah. Thank you so much for taking the time to let us know about your experience at Log Retreat. We are excited to hear that the space both in and outside the home was exactly what your group needed, providing a nice balance between private and public space. A firepit is a wonderful thing, and so is a nice level paved driveway for riding bikes! I am going to forward your comments about the living room tv, missing drip pan, worn throw pillows, and broken patio chair to the homeowner. Our homeowners take guest experience very seriously, and I'm sure will make the necessary repairs/updates. The overgrown lawn, and difficult temperature control between floors I will forward to maintenance. We are very sorry you had these problems with your stay, but are glad to know you would stay again with assurances that the grass had been mowed before your arrival. We hope you will come to Deep Creek lake for another vacation. It really is a wonderful area, and we would love to host you again for a vacation that exceeds your expectations. -Susan, Railey Vacations

The log retreat was fantastic. we could have not asked for better accommodations and a place to stay. I recommend this to any large group of guys going to Deep creek. after golf each day we spent the next hours around the fire pit eating and drinking. also secluded with lots of parking.

The Log Retreat property was wonderful! We loved having a fire pit between the two houses and plenty of room in each house and on the property to spread out. Many books and crannies within each house to find a moment of quiet solitude. On the grounds, we enjoyed tennis, the oversized dog run, the large grounds for a great game of manhunt, and the nice hike down to the boat launch. We had a great week. We did have a clogged toilet one night - the company sent a plumber within 20 minutes and fixed the problem - that's service!! Thank you. We will be back!

I'm sorry to hear that a plumber was necessary during your stay, Nuala, but am so glad we could get them to you quickly! We're happy that this inconvenience didn't prevent you from having a wonderful getaway, and we can't wait to host you again in the future!
