Easter getaway
The cabin was perfect for my little family! I brought my 2 kids 11/12 here for an Easter getaway and we absolutely loved it!! Will definitely be coming back up before school starts up in the fall! The whole area is stunning and the setting for the cabin is very safe for bike riding and evening walks. This was my first time using vrbo but Michelle explained it all step for step and was very kind and easy to work with! Great hosts very accommodating!!

Misleading pictures
Living room furniture very uncomfortable and worn. Mold on outside deck. Cobwebs, dirty floors (Doritos under sofa), ladder climb impossible for anyone over 30, unsafe, very steep. Not handicap accessible, bathroom door not wide enough for walker. Owner was very belligerent. Didn't want to hear my assessment. She would stay there.

Snowed in at the cutest cabin ever!
We stayed at the Love Shack a few weeks ago during a winter weather advisory. We didn’t think it would impact our plans to visit different hot spots in deep creek because deep creek always get snow! Well, it was a lot of snow and winds so it just mad sense to hunker down especially since we had our two young daughters with us. The cabin was cute, clean, cozy, just PERFECT!!! We had a fire going throughout the weekend which just created such an ambience. We packed plenty of food and just kept cooking and baking. Our girls just loved relaxing and playing in the snow! The hot tub was wonderful! It was a perfect retreat for our very busy family. We needed this weekend so bad!

Love Shack
We have been going up to Deep Creek Lake every January for the last five years. The Love Shack is the best cabin we have stayed in. The kitchen and bathroom look like they have been recently renovated. Very clean and updated. The fireplace and leather couch made the living room very comfortable. The hot tub was perfect after snow tubing in cold and windy weather. The loft area was great also. We had a great weekend.

The perfect local getaway
What a great experience! My lady and I brought in the new year here and we couldn’t be happier with how things turned out. It started snowing on our way into town so we had the perfect excuse stay in and enjoy the space. The cabin seems simple and quaint from the outside, but the inside is nicely renovated and well-kept, complete with modern appliances and sleek fixtures. Kudos to the hosts for keeping the space updated/maintained. To bring in 2024 here was special and something that we'll never forget. We look forward to visiting this part of MD again in the near future.

Winter Wonderland
Our family of four had a wonderful stay in this gorgeous cozy cabin. Michelle was amazing and gave us so many recommendations! The hot tub and loft area were our daughter's favorite spots to hang out. The cabin is so close to town and Wisp. It was our home away from home, lots of laughter, smiles, and fun were had by all. Mother Nature treated us with beautiful snow making it a winter wonderland during our stay! We definitely will return for our next winter family trip.

Nice winter getaway!
We had an amazing winter getaway before Christmas with our family of 4 at the Love Shack. We loved the layout of the cabin, the hot tub was a big hit & our kids adored the loft area! We had a fire going almost the whole time, and cooked all our meals in the cabin. Everything was very clean and was stocked with everything we needed. Would definitely recommend!
