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.

Great location and home layout but the home shows significant wear and unkept maintenance. Would like to visit again if the home is upgraded to justify the high end price.

However, we sincerely appreciate your comments about the wear and maintenance of the home. Your insights are invaluable, as they help us identify areas where we can improve our offerings. Please rest assured that we take such matters seriously, and we are actively working with the homeowners and property management staff on enhancements to ensure that our homes meet high standards of quality. We would love to welcome you back in the future once these upgrades have been implemented, as it is important to us that your next visit justifies your expectations in terms of both comfort and value.

This rental was spacious and adequate for the amount of people staying. Surface areas/tubs/toilets seemed clean. Many cobwebs inside and covering the outside of the deck. It is in the woods so of course spiders are expected but it was a ton and did not seem cleaned in awhile. More than 2 weeks.(After our one week stay, it was still cleanish outside) Housekeeping should just look up and do a sweep around with the rest of the cleaning. Broken outdoor screens leaning on porch, broken/old items in the corners near hot tub and on upper deck. Outdoor chairs filthy and older. Deck with loose screws and chipping paint- be aware if no shoes on or kids. Watch the dining area rug, a nail at the corner sticking out, cut our foot. Moss covering roof and gutters full of debris. Steps down to front door need straightened/repaired, could be dangerous for some people. We cleaned all of the outside slider windows upon arrival due to the dirt covering this area, and to improve our view with seeing outside. Needs updated cooking pans. If you use a particular pan for frying, bring it. TV remotes need batteries. Downstairs tv not working. Beds are fair/firm. Trundle bed downstairs appeared to have brown human waste stains. Ceiling fans covered in dust. Cobwebs on lights/ceilings- one went from the tv up to the loft...we went through removing these. Sheets and towels are delivered and clean/adequate. 2 Keurigs. Comforters/extra pillows could use updating but were okay. Indoor feel and coziness/decor/view was nice. Nice lake location. Woodsy and good firepit. Washer/dryer/dishwasher worked well. 2 sinks in the kitchen. Bring an ice cream scoop. Great dishes. Sauna is great and hot tub was large and clean. House just needs an updating in some areas and occasional outdoor cleaning for guests. Other recent reviews have said similar. Railey was quick to assist with fixing one broken toilet. Overall a nice home on the lake just could use some updates.

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback regarding your recent stay Diana. We appreciate your insights as they help us improve our services and ensure a better experience for all our guests. We are pleased to hear that you found the rental spacious and enjoyed its beautiful lake location along with the amenities such as the sauna and hot tub. Your comments about the cleanliness of surface areas upon arrival are also appreciated. However, we sincerely apologize for the maintenance issues you encountered during your stay. We take your concerns seriously regarding cobwebs inside and outside the property, as well as broken outdoor screens and other items that detracted from your overall experience. Please rest assured that we will address these matters with our housekeeping team to ensure a thorough cleaning process moving forward. Additionally, we acknowledge your points about safety hazards such as loose screws on the deck steps and protruding nails in the dining area rug and will alert our maintenance department to address these issues as soon as possible. Your suggestions regarding updating cooking utensils and bedding have been noted as well. Thank you once again for bringing these matters to our attention while also highlighting aspects you enjoyed during your visit. We hope to welcome you back in the future so that we can provide an even better experience. Madison, Railey Vacations

Overall the house got the vacation done, but our experience could have been better, cleaner, and nicer. the location was great, the space in the home was appreciated, and the amenities were well used. Sadly the beds were uncomfortable and obviously old and outdated bed spreads. The decks and outdoor space was dirty upon arrival and required a few hours of cleanup. The bedroom suite in the basement had handprints and residue on the walls. The beds and pillows were very old and worn. We couldn’t get the temperature in the house to go lower than 73. There were no views from the deck (very wooded) but this did not bother us. Overall it seemed like a “party house” rather than a vacation retreat. Will not book again. I am only giving three stars because the location, amenities (sauna, dock, pool-table, hot tub), and spaciousness were a plus.

Hi Susan! We appreciate your detailed review and are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the location, amenities, and spaciousness of the house. However, we apologize for the issues you encountered with cleanliness, comfort of the beds, outdated bed spreads, and temperature control. Your comments regarding the condition of the decks, outdoor space, basement suite walls, and worn-out beds and pillows will be addressed and passed along to the correct departments as well as the owners to ensure that the correct measures are taken to remedy these issues. We strive to provide a relaxing retreat for our guests and it is disappointing to learn that we fell short in some areas during your stay. Your feedback is invaluable to us as we work towards improving our property for future guests. We understand your concerns about the overall atmosphere of the house and will take this into consideration moving forward. We regret that you do not plan on booking with us again but hope that you may reconsider in the future as I am confident we can provide a better rental experience. Madison, Railey Vacations

This home built in 2012 appears to have had no outside maintenance in many, many years. Just about everything needs stained, cleaned, repaired. The front walk is actually hazardous getting to the house, especially when it rains. Poor light in every room except the kitchen, Every room! Decks were filthy, as were all outside furniture which appears to have weather many years of winters without repair, cleaning, or replacement. It is apparent that the owners would never want to stay here themselves.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your recent stay Harlan. We sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced during your visit and we are truly sorry to hear about the lack of outside maintenance and cleanliness that you encountered. Rest assured, we take these concerns very seriously and will be addressing them promptly. Your safety is our top priority, so we will make sure to assess and improve the front walkway to prevent any hazards. Regarding the poor lighting in the rooms, we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We will look into ways to enhance the lighting throughout the house to create a more comfortable environment for our guests. As for the decks and outdoor furniture, we apologize for any inconvenience caused by their condition and will work diligently to clean and repair them as needed. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we thank you for sharing your experience with us. We hope that you would consider giving us another chance in the future to provide you with a better stay.

Great house with a very nice large hot tub! Very close to the ski area (5 min drive). The house is very well stocked and has beautiful lake and forest views. The two gas fireplaces work very well and are very easy to turn on. We enjoyed the house in winter but the summer stays would also be very nice.

Thank you for the kind words Lina! We are pleased to hear that you were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery here at Deep Creek and that the location and amenities were the perfect combination for you and your group! Please come see us again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

The house was great. We enjoyed our stay and would rent again. The location was close to everything. There were two things I would recommend. First, update the pots and pans. Second, we were there the first cold weekend of the season. There are two furnaces. The main floor furnace was not working. I reached out to the rental company twice. They stated they were coming, but never showed.

Thank you for taking the time out to leave us with your feedback Michele! We will be sure to pass along this information to the homeowners for future improvements to the home, and we sincerely apologize for the miscommunication with our staff. Otherwise we are pleased to hear that you and your group had a lovely time and we hope to see you again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

A beautiful home situated near Wisp along Deep Creek Lake with lakefront and boat slip access. Spacious home for large or multiple families with plenty of amenities to keep everyone occupied. The house is kept very clean and had no issues with any of the appliances. The hot tub is delightful, clean and spacious. The sauna and 2 gas fire places are a welcoming treat. Would highly recommend this house for anyone’s next vacation!

Thanks so much for the kind words, Joyce! We truly appreciate you taking the time to leave your review and that it's all kind words for both Wilderness Lodge and the Railey Vacation staff.

The location was great- a fabulous part of the lake, but the house itself needs some work, Dock situation was odd. Overall a good stay. The location was ideal and great lake views from the house. The decking was wonderful, although was not set up for guests when we arrived- was filthy and the furniture unusable because of cobwebs. Railey was quick to respond to needs and rectify any issues we had. The house itself was comfortable but needs more lighting, particularly in the bedrooms. Overall was a good stay, but we will continue to look for a house we'd like to come back to year after year.

Hi Kevin! We appreciate your feedback and are pleased to hear that you and your family had a good stay with us! We do sincerely apologize for the inconvenience of the outdoor furniture but are happy to hear we were able to quickly help! We hope to have the opportunity to rent to you again in the future!

Nice property, great location - 5 mins to just about everything fun to do in the Deep Creek area. Lots of fun stuff at the house too, pool table and gaming consoles were appreciated when the weather got a little rainy. Well set-up for a family, with plenty of room to spread out - the multiple bathrooms and sleeping options are nice. The driveway and property down to the lake are quite steep, so careful with any younger kiddos. Overall - had a great time and would recommend this property if you're interested in visiting Deep Creek in any season.

Hi Izaak! Thank you for taking the time out to leave us a review. It's great to hear that the home, layout, and amenities all came together for an awesome rental experience! We hope to see you again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

My family stayed at the Wilderness Lodge, and we loved it! It looked exactly how it was represented. My son packed his PlayStation, but never had to unpack it, because there were 2 PlayStations already at the house with lots of games. They had a closet full of games for us to play with the kids. Overall the house was very comfortable and we look forward to booking again soon.

Monique, we're so pleased to hear that Wilderness Lodge was such a perfect fit for you and your family. It's great to know that the amenities were a big hit, and we can't wait to host you again for your next vacation here at Deep Creek. Jenny, Railey Vacations

Lovely vacation home for our family. We were there in early May. The home is beautiful and the views of the lake were fabulous. The home was so clean and the kitchen well stocked. There was plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the amenities. The switchback driveway is steep but also noted in the description of the home. We would definitely rent this home again.

Hi, Barry. We are so happy to hear how much you and your family enjoyed Wilderness Lodge. Spring is a lovely time to visit DCL. Everything is blooming and greening up. It's nice you were able to experience that, and excellent views of the lake which abound in this home.

We’re so glad that you had a wonderful time, Susan! Because the driveways (and general terrain in the area) can be challenging even in the summer months, we do recommend that our guests bring 4WD/AWD vehicles whenever possible.

The dock is very nice but the location is quite busy - making for lots of rough waves. The driveway and walk from the house to the dock are both very steep and treacherous. Overall a great house!

We had a wonderful week at Wilderness Lodge and would definitely rent this property again. The view of the lake through the trees from the deck and many of the rooms is gorgeous. There is easy access to the dock for swimming and boating. We also enjoyed the fire pit. Inside the house, the furniture and decor are tasteful and comfortable. This is the best stocked kitchen in terms of every imaginable kind of pot, pan and utensil that I've found in any rental home or airbnb - I was even able to bake here - and there are plenty of dishes and silverware. The lower level bedrooms and baths gave us enough room to host our grown kids and partners during the first half of our stay, and there is a nice children's room and extra fold out sofas we didn't use. But because the master bedroom is on the main floor, the house did not feel too big for a couple once they all left. Finally, a shout-out to Railey! We stayed at a Deep Creek Lake house last summer with another big rental company and left a one-star review due to multiple issues including cleanliness and communication. Every one of our interactions this summer with Railey was positive. The people who answered the phones were polite, friendly and (promptly) helpful. The house was exceptionally clean and orderly on our arrival. Having a good relationship with the management company really enhanced our stay.

Andrea, thank you so much for taking the time to write such a nice review regarding both your stay at Wilderness Lodge and your interactions with our staff. It means a lot to us that you took the time to do so. We're so happy to hear it was a great vacation and we look forward to hosting you and your group again in the future! - Jenn, Railey Vacations

Home was lovely and the perfect size for our family. We had issue w the ovens and sauna. Repair team was sent out twice. Oven issue was resolved, but sauna was not able to fixed during our stay, which was disappointing as it was one of the reasons we rented this particular property. Railey staff were extremely helpful and professional when we called.

So sorry to hear about the troubles during your stay, Carol, and that the sauna ultimately couldn't be repaired during your stay. Please know we always do our best to repair items as quickly as possible so as not to impact your stay negatively, but occasionally it's not possible depending on what's needed for the repair and the timeline in which we can receive those items.
