  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.

This house size-wise was perfect for us. However the quality was poor. Shower doors falling off in 2 bathrooms, sauna did not work, outside on deck was filthy. I realize it is outside but there were cobwebs around every light, vegetation growing in gutters, infestation of gnats coming out of the corner trim boards on the house among many other places made it hard to even sit out there. A faucet in an upstairs bathroom leaked when you turned it on. All in all for what we paid for a weekend, it did not come close to meeting expectations. We are a big crew that has traveled every year labor day weekend for the past 30 years and I can say we will probably never rent this place again.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay Jim. We are pleased to hear that the size of the house met your needs; however, we sincerely apologize for the numerous issues you encountered during your visit. We will be sure to address these maintenance problems, including the shower doors, non-functional sauna with our staff as well as the homeowners. We also sincerely apologize for the concerns with the cleanliness of both indoor and outdoor areas and will be sure to alert our housekeeping staff. We appreciate your loyalty over 30 years of Labor Day weekend travels, and it is disheartening to know that this experience did not meet your expectations or ours. Please be assured that we take these matters seriously as your feedback is invaluable in helping us enhance our services for future guests. Should you consider giving us another chance in the future, we would welcome the opportunity to provide a much better experience. Madison, Railey Vacations

Although spacious and well appointed, the interior and exterior cleanliness of the house was not satisfactory. The rental cost was more expensive than the property deserved, especially with an inoperative large screen TV for the entire week

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at our property Tom. We sincerely apologize that your experience did not meet your expectations, particularly concerning the cleanliness of both the interior and exterior of the house. Maintaining a high standard of cleanliness is a priority for us, and we will address this matter with our cleaning team to ensure it is rectified moving forward. We also appreciate your comments about the rental cost in relation to the amenities provided. Regarding the large screen TV, we regret any inconvenience caused by its inoperability during your stay. We understand how important such amenities can be for our guests' enjoyment, and we are currently investigating this issue with our IT department to prevent future occurrences. Your insights are crucial in helping us improve our services, and we hope you might consider staying with us again in the future so that we can provide you with a more satisfactory experience.

Nice place but all we smelled is sewage the entire weekend. Looks like the septic tank was leaking. Walls had a ton of spill marks not very clean looking. The mattresses and furniture were uncomfortable and worn out

We appreciate you taking the time to leave us with your feedback, Amy, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during your stay with us. Our Railey staff strives for a 5-star clean with each stay, however, we are only human and sometimes we do miss our mark. In the future, please do not hesitate to call our office and we will quickly send out a housekeeper to remedy the issues with the walls. We will also be sure to pass along this information concerning the sceptic tank and mattresses to the homeowners for consideration of future improvements to the home. I hope that you and your group had an otherwise good experience during your stay and that you'll allow us to host your group again in the future. I'm confident we can prove ourselves a favored vacation spot if given another chance! Madison, Railey Vacations

Nice property. Main focus was family togetherness. Kitchen table was perfect for our party. Notified of hot tub down on way. Other didn’t heat beyond 96. No hot tub key upon arrival. Communication with Railey representative was suboptimal and customer service lackluster, hence lack of eagerness to call to just get disregarded again. Had to leave and drive to go get key. House had potholes drive way in and some wear (metal hook MacGyver-ing) chandelier over kitchen table etc. nice location and again goal was family and venue so 4/5 stars

Hi Bryan! Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the lack of communication on our end in reciprocating the issues with the hot tub and want to let you know that we take your experience very seriously. In the future please do not hesitate to call back and ask for another representative so we are able to further assist you.

The house was great. Bigger than expected. Great for large families and multiple families. Close to activities and stores. Yet private. Would stay there again. Only thing you need to bring is a roku or similar. We are spoiled with smart tvs/apps and the house had an abundance of tvs with cable/direct tv. But no ability to watch Disney plus. But it wouldn’t defer me from staying again!!!

Thanks for taking the time out to leave us a review Angela! The Railey's staff and homeowners strive to provide the best rental experience possible and we love to hear when we've succeeded. We hope to have the chance to rent to you again in the future! Madison, Railey Vacations

THE HOUSE LAYOUT WAS GREAT FOR MY GROUP OF SENIOR LADIES. THE VIEW OF THE LAKE THRU THE FALL FOLIAGE WAS CALMING AND WORTH EVERY MINUTE SITTING ON THE LARGE EXPANSIVE DECKS. PARKING 8 CARS IN THE IRREGULARLY SHAPED PARKING AREA IS DO-ABLE WITH CAUTION. THE INTERIOR OF THE HOUSE WAS CLEAN. THE KITCHEN IS LARGE AND DEFINATELY A MULTI-BUTT KITCHEN. IT HAS MOST EVERY SMALL APPLIANCE, FOOD PREPARATION EQUIMENT, GLASSES, BOWLS, PLATES ETC. NEEDED FOR LARGE PARTIES. THERE IS A BUTANE FIREPIT ON THE UPSTAIRS DECK OUTSIDE THE DINING ROOM, AND BOTH FPs IN THE HOUSE HAVE BEEN CONVERTD TO GAS.

This house is amazing! We’ve rented here many times. There’s a beautiful view, so much room to relax, play games, visit, make large meals and sleep comfortably. Maintenance is quick to respond if there is any need but we’ve very rarely needed anything! We’ve felt very lucky.

Fantastic to hear Lisa! Thank you for the great 5 star review! We are glad that you and your family took full advantage of all the home had to offer and had a wonderful time together! Please come see us again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

Our extended family had an amazing time at Journey’s End! We had three generations stay for the week and created memories that will last a lifetime. We really appreciated how spread out we could be (especially with each bedroom having its own bathroom!) while still being able to gather in the huge kitchen and living room to catch up, share stories, and laugh. We spent a lot of time out on the lake, at the fire ring by the shore, and out exploring the beauty around Deep Creek. We absolutely loved the home and cannot wait to come back!

Adam: It sounds like your family get together was just perfect! Thank you for letting us know what a wonderful stay you had at Journey's End. We are so happy to hear the home provided the layout, outdoor areas, location, and amenities for your large group to just focus on making special memories together. We are as excited to hear you're planning a return visit. Please contact us to make the arrangements when you decide on a date. We can't wait to host you again. -Susan, Railey Vacations

This home was exactly as pictured and described. Kitchen was well stocked and the house was roomy for all. Our extended family (13 adults and 3 babies) appreciated the double appliances! The walk down to the dock was nicely done with steps, so easily managed by all. The deck was enjoyed as some of it was shady all day. Every bedroom had its own bath which was a great feature.

There were more activities than we could possibly have done in the 6 days were were there, so plenty of reason to come again - hopefully the water will be warmer (and cleaner?), and the weather warmer next time! We loved walking and hiking around, time on the lake, horseback riding, and white water rafting. But also just loved hanging out at the super comfortable house and playing games! Nice big open kitchen and dining area. House and dock needs a little TLC but is lovely overall.

Thanks for your review, Linda - we're so glad you had a great time overall! We will share your comments regarding the upkeep of the home and dock with the homeowner as written here, but if you would like to provide additional details, please feel free to give us a call.

House was amazing. Lots of rooms, bathroom, pots and pans, utensils and a nice deck. Everything was amazing except when we rented it, there were no docks so we were unable to have any fun at the lake (even though the temperature was around 80 degrees). Found out that they dock is only guaranteed after Memorial day weekend. Every other houses near us had a dock except this one so if we had a dock I would have given a 5 star. But other than that everything is nice. We would definitely rent it again but only when the dock is available. Thanks.

I'm so glad to hear that you were able to enjoy a relaxing stay overall, Pratik. We can't wait for your next visit - see you then! - Lainey, Railey Vacations
