  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.

It's OK, very pretty view. Since the location is close to the road, it's a little bit loud at night with the trucks downshifting.

Thank you for your feedback Alyson. We are sorry to hear about the inconvenience with the noise of the trucks. However we are glad to hear that you were able to enjoy the beautiful views here at Deep Creek and please come see us again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

We so enjoyed our time together as a family at the Ambiance house. It does need some updating and cleaned a little better but on the whole we enjoyed our time there. We had reception problems with the internet the first day but they fixed it right away. Called for wood for the fire and they also dropped some off to us immediately. I was very pleased with that. We loved the location and being right on the lake. Found everything we needed. Hopefully next time we come down we will get better weather so they family could venture out a little but it was great! I have already recommended it to another family. Thank you.

I’m glad to hear that your family had a great time at Ambiance, Diana! We’ve shared your suggestions for improvement with our housekeeping team and the homeowner to ensure that your next visit to DCL is even better than the last. Thanks so much for your review and for recommending Ambiance to others! We hope you’ll visit again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

We really enjoyed our stay on this property! The views were amazing. The location was great - right on the beach, close to the State Park, shopping and mini golf. The rental company was very responsive and helpful. The house worked out great for our multiple families, each taking a different floor. The furnishings were nice and the kitchen was fully stocked. There were a bit of minor items that need repair but the realtor was quick to respond to any immediate needs. The outside of the house is in need of some TLC.

Hi, Terri - thanks for your review! We’re glad to hear that you had a great time at Ambiance overall and appreciate your feedback regarding the aspects of the home that you feel could be improved. We’ll share your comments with the homeowner for consideration during future upgrades; if you would like to provide details about which specific items need repairs and/or exactly how you feel the outdoor area of the home could be improved, please don’t hesitate to give us a call.

Great location but needs updating

We love Ambiance and have stayed many times throughout the years. Great location, beautiful view of the lake and spacious. However, it desperately needs updating of the outdoor furniture. The picnic table is falling apart and there are only broken plastic Adirondack chairs to sit on outside. It needs a new outdoor dining set, 2 chaise lounge chairs for the porch and a proper fire pit with chairs. The new beds this year were wonderful! It could really be great with outdoor furniture upgrades

Thanks for your review, Margaret. We’ll be sure to share your comments regarding the outdoor furniture with the owner for use when upgrading the home. As someone so familiar with the property, your feedback is greatly appreciated. We’re glad to know that you had another good stay at Ambiance overall and look forward to hosting you again in the future. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

Home is in need of renovations- very dated, carpet is stained terribly- walls have cracks in them and need repaired an painted- the bones are nice- good layout and location- home is very close to the main road- lake view and back yard are gorgeous- would not choose this home next time. Oven and fireplace did not work- did not have a fire pit.
