  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.

Description

DESCRIPTION:
Unwind and relax at Shadycrest Cove; a cozy cedar home located at the end of a tranquil cove. This home offers a 1.75 acre wooded lot and an inviting warm ambience as soon as you step inside. The gorgeous floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace is the perfect center piece for welcoming the entire family to life at the lake. A wall of windows entices you back outside to the expansive deck which is surrounded by the sounds of nature. It is a perfect place to gather and grill during the day or converse around the gas fire pit at night. After a restful night of sleep, begin your day enjoying a cup of coffee or tea on the porch swing while taking in the smell of morning dew. Continue the fun by challenging the kids to a game of billiards, darts, or one of 400+ video games on the retro arcade station. It’s easy to make memories at Shadycrest Cove. Conclude your rewarding day with a dip in the hot tub or roast s’mores around the stone fire pit while the kids play on the swings. Let the lake and the woods melt away your stresses and book your stay today!

This beautiful home had everything needed for a wonderful vacation in Deep Creek, MD. We walked into a VERY clean and well-maintained home. The beds and pillows were super comfy. We had plenty of thick towels in all the bathrooms. The kitchen was so well stocked with gadgets/pots & pans, dishes and utensils. We used the hot tub numerous nights (very clean) and enjoyed the game room in the basement. Location of the house was very close to stores, restaurants and Deep Creek adventures! Would definitely rent this home again if we are headed back to the area.

We are delighted to hear that you found our home exceptionally clean and well-maintained, as we strive to provide a welcoming environment for all our guests Erie!

We take pride in ensuring that our kitchen is fully stocked with all necessary gadgets, pots, pans, dishes, and utensils so that you can enjoy cooking during your vacation.

This property was great for a long weekend away with my family of five. The property was awesome. There was a fire pit, swings, hammock, hot tub, and large deck.. It was quiet and peaceful. There was plenty of space for myself and my family of 5. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, silverware, etc. The downstairs was great with darts, a pool/ping pong table, and card games and board games. The couches downstairs were very comfortable as well. It is a great place, but I gave it 4 stars for a few reasons. -The house is literally at the mouth of the lake. It is murky, shallow, muddy water. You can’t really fish because of it. Also, there is no swimming. In front of the boat dock is such a tiny place with no real-or safe-entry. The decor is simplistic, which goes with the cottage feel, but the bathrooms and bedrooms could use an update. Another thing to mention is they use down/feather pillows. If you are allergic, bring your own pillows. Because we didn’t have a boat, we had to drive everywhere as it’s not close to the main part of Deep Creek Lake. If I could give it 4.5 stars, I would. We really did enjoy our stay, but definitely rent a boat for easy access to all that Deep Creek Lake has to offer.

Thank you for your detailed review of the property Corina. We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you and your family had an enjoyable stay overall. The issues you mentioned regarding the lake access and decor updates are helpful to pass along to the homeowners for future consideration to improvements. We strive to provide a comfortable and well-equipped experience for all our guests, and your input helps us to continually improve. We hope you'll consider visiting us again in the future.

Shadycove was a wonderful place for our family to come together for summertime fun at Deep Creek Lake for a 4 day stay! Our children and grandchildren enjoyed paddle boarding, kayaking and fishing during the days while playing board games, fire circles and smores in the evenings. We are a foodie family and were pleased with the well equipped kitchen and large dining room table! We were able to gather around for breakfasts , lunches and dinners that were easily prepared with easy clean up in the large kitchen Shadycove doesn’t have a dock, but the access to the water was quite easy. The little children were so happy to greet the ducks every morning! We’d definitely enjoy future visit to Shadycove!

We’ve been going to Deep Creek for many years and this property is one of the best we’ve stayed in. It is only a few steps away from the lake and nestled on a quiet cove. There are so many amenities and so much to do -kayaking, fishing, ping pong, darts. arcade, pool, basketball, hot tub, fire pit- you name it! The house was pristine and the beds very comfortable. The kitchen is stocked with everything you could ever need including a waffle iron and Keurig. We loved the lake access as well! We booked a 2-day boat rental at a nearby marina! This place has it all and we will definitely be back next year!

Thank you for taking the time out to leave us a 5 star detailed review of your stay Tania! It's always a pleasure to hear that you found the amenities, location, and overall experience to be exceptional. It's wonderful to know that you enjoyed everything from the lake access to the comfortable beds and well-stocked kitchen.

It is just a few short steps from the lake, but you still get the feeling of tranquility and isolation with its peaceful surroundings. Our party of 8 slept comfortably in the house, and it had all of the amenities needed inside and out for an enjoyable stay. I will go no further in my future searches as long as this place is available. It's perfect!

This home has it all. Waterfront and secluded in a cove. It's tough to find your own place at deep creek but this place has plenty

This home had an immediate feel of comfort and Family. Our family of 9 had everything we needed, with the Kitchen, so well stocked with appliances and kitchen ware items. I have stayed in other rentals on the coast, with nothing else coming close to this house. We had a most enjoyable week and will consider this home again for future renting options. The communication with Railey met our every expectation.

Thank you for the kind words Joseph! So happy to hear that you found your home away from home here at Shadycrest Cove and that we were able to quickly communicate with you! We hope to have the chance to rent to you again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

House is beautiful and location is very convenient

Appreciated inviting appearance of this tasteful get-a-way home with privacy distance between houses. Upon entering, the mudroom was much welcomed for unloading and decluttering the living area of daily incidental apparel/equipment. As birding enthusiast, we were thrilled by the daily appearance of the resident Osprey and Oriole serenades. With multiple bedroom options, we took advantage of the luxurious Master Suite. The well-equipped gameroom enabled us with friendly competition leading to the day's end relaxing in the hot tub listening to the Tree Frogs and other night sounds. Shadycrest is highly recommended for any outdoor lover - we're hoping to return!!

Hi Darline! We appreciate the great review! The Railey's staff and homeowners strive to provide the best rental experience possible and we love to hear when we've succeeded!

Our stay was fabulous. The house was well appointed, was exceptionally clean and tidy when we arrived, and we loved that it felt more secluded than many other properties on the lake. We thoroughly enjoyed a girls weekend getaway and plan to be back next year.

Relaxing first time trip to Deep Creek Lake

We really enjoyed staying at Shadycrest Cove. The amenities and size/layout of the house were just right for our family of four. Despite the bad luck with a full rainy day and some cold weather (20's and 30's), we had a wonderful time building campfire's, soaking in the hot tub and playing board games. I would say the only problem with visiting the first week of November is that many restaurants and attractions in the area are closed during the week. With that said, we found plenty to do both inside and outside of this home which was a nice change of pace for our always on the go family.

I’m sorry to hear that some of the restaurants and attractions you were hoping to visit were closed during your stay, Robert! If you are ever interested in recommendations, our team is happy to oblige. Closings and uncooperative weather aside, we’re so glad to know that you thoroughly enjoyed your stay at Shadycrest Cove and we hope you’ll visit again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations

Outstanding Vacation Spot in Deep Creek!

I've been going to Deep Creek every summer for years. We've stayed at some good places but this one stands out as the best!The entire house is well kept, clean and spacious with plenty of room to eat, sleep and spread out. The views are beautiful from inside thanks to the huge windows, or outside relaxing on the deck. Did I mention that it is FULLY LOADED with a huge outdoor deck, gas grill, hot tub, outdoor swings, fire pit, pool table, and an arcade table with plenty of old school 80's video games like Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Dig Dug, and many more!The lake and dock for swimming or fishing is only a few steps away. Easy access and so convenient. This is a vacation home you don't want to miss!Lastly, I need to comment on some past reviews. All TV's in the house are wired with Cable TV (some past reviews said that the basement TV did not have cable, but it does now) and also the Master Bedroom where I stayed does have shutters for those who like to sleep in (again, some past reviews stated that sleeping in was difficult, but shutters have now been installed).All in all I rate Shadycrest Cove 10 out of 10 stars! You can't go wrong!

Thanks so much for this awesome review, Kevin! We are thrilled to hear that Shadycrest Cove offered everything your group needed to have a fantastic vacation and more! We sincerely appreciate you speaking to past reviews, too, and highlighting the welcome changes that the owners have implemented. We hope to host you for the years to come! - Lainey, Railey Vacations

A True Gem in Deep Creek!

We have stayed in several different locations over the years in Deep Creek but this house far surpassed our expectations! It has everything you could want or need for a family or adult vacation! The house is lovely and clean with tons of extras. We didn't know what to do first between the hot tub, pool table, arcade, fire pit, fishing/swimming dock, swings, etc. We enjoyed meals outside on the large deck and slept like babies in the cool, quiet lower level. Even our large TV in the basement had a full range of cable channels but we were having too much fun to stop to rest! The owners really thought of everything a family would want to make a vacation fun and effortless. Our kids could have stayed and played all week. This house is perfect for a getaway - you will not be disappointed!!!

I am so glad to hear that Shadycrest Cove offered everything and more for the perfect vacation! Come back and relax again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

The house was very clean and well taken care of. The only downside was the TV in the basement did not have a cable box and you could not connect it to the internet to use streaming services. This wouldn't have been a big deal except 4 of the 7 days we were there it was cold and raining so we spent more time at the house than anticipated. Having only one working TV with multiple adults and children was difficult with having to be inside so many days.

Thanks for the review, Andrea! We're glad you otherwise had a great time and we'll be sure to take a look at that TV situation for future guests. Please come back and visit us again! - Jenn, Railey Vacations

We had a lovely stay at Shadycrest Cove. Beautiful views of the lake, gorgeous fireplace. Kitchen and master bath look recently remodeled and had everything we needed for our long weekend. Close to stores and activities. They have a pool table and AMAZING arcade game in the basement. The hot tub was nice and had a pretty view as well. Too cold for the outdoor firepit and swings. Love the setup of the house. Only improvements - the basement in tv didn't have a cable box - so that is much needed and some blinds for the high windows over the master bed. If you like to sleep in, pack a sleep mask.

We loved our time away at Deep Creek! The cabin was beautiful and had everything we needed for our week at the lake. Our cabin had a basement with a pool table, ping pong table and arcade games which were so fun for out teenagers. We did have an issue with an alarm that wouldn't stop beeping but the team at Railey took care of it for us. We also had a flat tire on our rental car during our stay and the team at Railey helped us find a tire company to fix our tire. Our family can not wait to come back to this gorgeous place. Would highly recommend.

I'm sorry to hear about the alarm and the flat tire, Meagan! I'm happy to know that our team was able to lend a hand in resolving these issues for you. More importantly, I'm glad these hiccups didn't prevent your group from having a wonderful time at Shadycrest Cove! Thanks for taking the time to share your review.

We had a great stay! The house was clean and plenty of space with lots of games, pool table/ping pong table, and hot tub. The 3 levels provided privacy and allowed for gatherings in different areas of the house for our family members. Easy drive to ski resort. I would definitely stay there again. Only 2 minor comments - a snow shovel would have been very useful. Also, instructions on how to get the main and lower level showers to work would have been helpful - luckily we found what we needed with google :)

Hi, Lisa! We are happy to hear your family had a great time staying with us at DCL and that the property met your entertainment and privacy needs! We apologize for not having a shovel at the property during your stay. We have since addressed this, as all of our properties are supposed to have a shovel.
