  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.

Great stay - comfy and cool. OUTSIDE: Deck space was gorgeous Back yard setting, fire pit,and access to lake were all great. (It's NOT as steep as pictures on web site seem to appear; yay) Great dock and lake access - couldn't be beat (need to tighten some cleats). Excellent parking !! INSIDE: Clean, spacious, and beautiful bedrooms, baths,and living areas !! Very nice having two fridges and dishwashers! The Bluetooth sound systems were a cool feature (The neighbors connected and blasted us a few times until they figured out it wasn't their system!) It was sweet having so many burner options AND an outdoor grill. We used them all. On 'chili night' I had four pots going simultaneously (chili for 25) while also roasting the tomatoes and chilis on the grill! [But that dangerous stove needs fixed or replaced, please, if not done already.] EVERY issue we called in about was addressed in reasonable times. Great job, Railey and property manager. [Hopefully the outstanding bed issues can be fixed for the next guests ...]

Mark, we greatly appreciate your thorough review and are so glad it sounds like overall your group had an outstanding time! We always pass along guest feedback to our owners for consideration of future improvements and will be sure to mention the dock, stove, and beds. Happy to hear our staff was promptly responsive to all your needs throughout your vacation, we do try our best to address each inquiry and appreciate feedback when it was a job well done! We hope you'll be back for another visit at Absolute Delight again soon. - Jenn, Railey Vacations

Great location!!

Reviewed on 2022-07-12 by Lynn

This house was a great location on the lake being located on a relatively quiet, small inlet which made it easy to paddleboard or kayak. It was a good location to get ice cream, go to Honi Honi or Pizzaria Uno. Getting to the lake from the house was a gentle slope and not a far hike or steep steps which is the case with a lot of the houses on the lake. It is conveniently located to two fuel stations for your boat which turns out was necessary in our case as we ran out of gas in the middle of the lake since our gas gauge was not working but that makes for great memories. We had a great time at this house!

Thanks so much for your review, Lynn! Sorry to hear your group ran out of gas in the middle of the lake, but glad to hear it was easily remedied with quick access to the nearby fuel stations! So happy to hear you all had a great time at Absolute Delight and we hope you'll be back to visit us again soon! - Jenn, Railey Vacations

The layout of bedrooms and bathrooms maximized the use of the bathrooms (either private bath or shared which was great). Deck, patio, fire pit, and grill were used the entire weekend! The ability to connect to the indoor and outdoor speakers added to our atmosphere. Path to lake as well as private covered picnic table next to lake was great (also solar lights within trees). Kitchen was beyond stocked with silverware, dishes, pots/pans, 2 coffee pots, 1 keurig, 2 refrigerators, 2 ovens, and 2 dishwashers. CABLE TV in the main living areas (including kitchen) and bedrooms - seems silly but most homes require you to sign into a streaming service. It's nice to start or end the day relaxing in bed with CABLE (tons of channels too).

We’re glad you enjoyed another fun and relaxing stay at Absolute Delight, Stephanie! Thanks for this detailed review. We hope you’ll visit again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations

Great time at Absolute Delight

Perfect spot for our group of 14- it was a repeat visit and there will be more! Kitchen stocked to perfection including two refrigerators and 3 ovens; hot tub was lovely; wood fireplace in great working order. Railey was very responsive to our calls. Only negative is that the wood provided is very new (not seasoned) so we did have to provide a lot of our own to get the fire going. Not a big deal, there is plenty of wood around to buy, even a wood vending machine- who knew?!

We’re sorry to hear that you experienced some issues getting the fire started, Maryanne, but are so glad to know that this disruption didn’t prevent you from having a fantastic time at Absolute Delight overall. Thank you for staying with us! We can’t wait to host you again! - Lainey, Railey Vacations

Annual Family Christmas Gathering

Reviewed on 2021-12-20 by Weldon

Absolute Delight accommodated our group of 19 for overnight stays and our group of 24 for dinner and full day of family gathering time. The kitchen is well-stocked and the location is convenient for grocery, theater, restaurant on a rather busy section of the lake area. The house did provide for easy handicap access with only one small step to be overcome for wheel chair entry. However, the restrooms on the first floor were not as easily accessed with the wheel chair. Furnishings and layout presented some wheel chair challenges, which were all over-come. We enjoyed our two nights in Absolute Delight.

I’m so happy to hear that Absolute Delight accommodated your group well, Weldon! While we’re glad the accessibility obstacles were able to be overcome, our wonderful reservationists would be happy to assist you in finding a rental that eliminates these obstacles altogether for your next visit to Deep Creek. When you’re ready to begin planning, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us so we can ensure your next getaway is fun, safe, and worry-free. Thanks for allowing us to host you, and we hope to do so again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations

The location was wonderful and access to the lake was so easy! We were able to kayak most of the day. Plenty of seating for 18 people in the dining area and also outside. 2 fridges in the kitchen was great! Cubbies by the front door were so convenient for storing bottle water, pop and household items. We plan on repeating our stay next year.

We're so glad that Absolute Delight offered everything you needed for a great stay, Georgia! We can't wait to have you back again next time. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

Beautiful location & 2 refrigerators & 2 dishwashers were very appreciated. If that was listed in the house description it would have put our minds at ease prior to arrival. The house was great for the amount of people we had however normal maintenance is needed.

Thanks for the suggestion, Cindy. We have the listing updated to reflect the correct number of appliances. Please come back and see us again soon! - Jenn, Railey Vacations

Overall, the home was great! However, we have learned over the years that we really prefer a quieter, more private section of the lake, as well as a pool and community amenities.

Absolute Delight was absolutely delightful. The location on the lake is quiet and the kids could play in the water without a lot of boats going by. The beds upstairs were brand new and super comfortable. The dining room table held 14 people, exactly the number in our party. We enjoyed the fire pit and spent a lot of time on the back deck. We had a great week.

4th year at Absolute Delight

Reviewed on 2019-01-22 by Nancy

This is our 4th year at Absolute Delight over Dr. Martin Luther King Birthday weekend. The lakefront property is a great location for Deep Creek State Park, movie theatre, grocery store, other state parks, and ski resort. We love staying here, but we may be outgrowing the house. If it only had a sleep sofa on the second floor in the loft game room we would be able to accommodate most of our group in beds. Even though the literature describing the house says that they provide blankets for the beds, they do not. Because we are renting in the winter everyone has to bring their own blanket. Rather inconvenient. The house has a well stocked kitchen, which we really appreciate, since we are cooking meals for 20 people. The driveway is quite steep, so you must have a 4 wheel or all wheel drive vehicle to access or exit the property. Railey Mountain Lake Vacations does an excellent job of keeping the driveway cleared and salted.

Thank you for the feedback, Nancy. We'll be sure to check the verbiage on blankets vs. what's actually accommodated in the home for accuracy as we certainly don't want to misadvertise what's provided. We're so happy you've otherwise been enjoying the last few years at Absolute Delight and hope you'll be able to continue to accommodate your group here but if you need larger accommodations, please don't hesitate to contact one of our Vacation Specialists to assist you! - Jenn, Railey Vacations
