  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.

The house was plenty big gif out family of 16. There were mice but it is difficult to get rid of mice in the woods. Also there was no lighting in the back yard on the stairs which was a bit of a hazard. The house is on a quiet cove.

Hi Anna! Thank you for taking the time out to leave us with your feedback!

Our second stay at Rother's Cove was as nice as the last. We love the privacy and calmness of the property. Plenty of space for all to spread out and relax. Big kitchen table and back porch tables for all to eat together. The private dock for our boat and small stony area to leave our paddleboards and kayaks is ideal. Although it's very private it is only 10 minutes from some of the restaurants.

Thanks so much for your review and continued visits, Gail! We truly appreciate it and are happy to hear Rother's Cove continues to be an ideal vacation spot for your family. We hope we'll see you for many more years to come! - Jenn, Railey Vacations

We rented this home New Years weekend 2022 with family and friends. It started off rocky because as we pulled up to the property I received a text saying the furnace wasn’t working. I was frustrated at first but the property had a beautiful fireplace burning in two rooms plus space heaters. We were given the option to get a full refund if we decided to cancel due to no other properties available but once we got into the home it was warm and cozy. The space was perfect plus it was well equipped with kitchen appliances and dinnerware. There are some minor maintenance issues but other than that the property was perfect and we had a wonderful time.

We appreciate you taking the time out to leave us a review Samantha! We are so glad to hear that you and your group had a good experience with us and were so understanding to the heating issues. We hope to have the opportunity to rent to you in the near future! Madison, Railey Vacations

Great family vacation spot

Reviewed on 2022-08-15 by Gail , EXTON, PA United States

Loved being on this quiet little cove in a very quiet community. Fairly flat yard out to the dock. We rented kayaks and paddleboards which were fun to use in the cove and beyond. Loved having a hot tub under a roof. The main room is great for a family gathering . Plenty of space to hang out and eat. Some things are a bit dated but the feel is more of a cabin in the woods than a super modern home. It would be nice if there was better lighting in the bedroom off of the deck. A table lamp next to right side of the bed and over the game table. The basement smelled musty despite the use of a dehumidifier but we weren't down there much. There were several small frying pans and it would have been nice to have a nice big nonstick one. Also there are tongs for the grilll but not a spatula. The plastic spatulas for inside did not have long enough handles so it made grilling VERY hot. The grill itself had not been cleaned but we didn't use it until the 3rd day so we did not report it. Next time we will check on the first day and call for maintenance. Overall a great experience!

The glowing trees inside are what initially caught my eye, but truly this entire place was nothing short of awesome. With a heavy snowfall we made very frequent use of the hot tub, sauna, and fire pit. Lovely area and view, and so much space inside to relax and have fun! The host had someone out to fix an issue with the sauna in under 2 hours, so they're very helpful and responsive. We'd definitely recommend this place and would stay again!

The house and the back yard are very spacious. Great for family with small kids. Our kids love to swim at the small tucked in private area of the lake.

We're so glad your family had fun at Rother's Cove, Xiu! Please come back and enjoy Deep Creek again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations
