The house was clean and the host/management company was responsive. The location is very close to the slopes. When we arrived at the property the toilet started leaking, we called the maintenance company's after-hours line but no one responded. We called again the next morning and they had someone out to fix it within a few hours. Although they did not fix the problem the first time and we had to call back to have them send someone else out they did fix it eventually. Our only issues were the trash bins were not big enough and we had nowhere else to put all the trash and they did not have sheets and pillowcases for every room. Overall it was a good stay and we would come back again.

Thank you for your feedback Alissa! We sincerely apologize for the inconveniences concerning the toilet, trash, and sheets. We will be sure to have our maintenance department ensure that it is repaired for future stays. In the future please do not hesitate to call into our office and we can quickly send out a housekeeper to bring more sheets and pillowcases for your stay. Otherwise we are pleased to hear that you and your group had an enjoyable time here at Walk About Chalet and we hope to have the opportunity to rent to you again in the future!

Perfect Winter Getaway

This house is perfect for large families or groups! It is conveniently located steps the family friendly Wisp Skiing Resort. It was snowing during our stay and we never had an issue with the roads being cleared for driving. It’s great to have the option to walk or drive to the mountain. After a long day on the mountains this house serves as the perfect retreat to unwind. We appreciated the many accommodations including a washer and dryer, multiple tv rooms, pool table, grill,hot tub, and wifi. The Mountain View’s are breathtaking. We will definitely rebook for next season!

Wow thank you for a great 5 star review Maggie! The Railey’s staff and homeowners strive to provide the best rental experience possible and we love to hear when we’ve succeeded! We appreciate the review and we hope to have the opportunity to rent to you again in the near future! Madison, Railey Vacations

The Property has everything you need for a weekend getaway. The property is spacious, has on-site extracurriculars (hot tub, pool table, deck, grill, games, etc.), and most importantly is located steps away from the ski resort. We will be coming back!

Hi Nigel! We love to hear that you and your group had a wonderful time with us and made sure to take full advantage of the amenities the home had to offer! We are looking forward to seeing you again in the near future! Madison, Railey Vacations

Walk About Chalet Golf Weekend

Reviewed on 2022-10-20 by Geary

Appreciate the level of personal information requested for rental purposes but a bit over the top in my opinion. Emergency contact by Railey the day of move in was very disappointing and confusing. I was on golf course at RockyGap and I as not monitoring communication - that was my fault but was not expecting you guys to be offering alternative location the day of our move in. Did you only find out about deck issue the day of our move in? Why wasn’t that revealed sooner? The original code provided was not operational when a couple of guys arrived. However, appreciate you providing new code asap and entry was successful. Assuming that was your attempt to prevent us from moving in? The whole deck issue and not being safe, is what it was. But we all were disappointed that we couldn’t use the hot tub - or back deck for that matter. Appreciate the maintenance guy moving the grill to front deck so that we could utilize it. The pool table is way past needing face lift - not level at all, pockets fall onto floor, sticks do not have tips on them and several bumpers are ‘dead’. Plenty of cooking utensils but short on forks. Will definitely not rent the place again as it is outdated and overpriced for current shape it is in.

Thank you for taking the time out and giving us your feedback Geary. We are so sorry to hear about your experience with us at Walk About Chalet. We will be sure to pass this along to the homeowner for future upgrades to the home as well as our Guest Experience department to remedy any issues. We hope we have the chance to rent to you again in the future so that we can provide a better experience!

Overall we were pleased with the space and utensils. The place was not cleaned to reasonable standards meaning alot of dust on common furniture in bedrooms and dog poop on one of the balconies. Some of the light fixtures and ceiling fans did not work, but overall it met are needs. Family time is what we were there for and we had a blast.

Hi Keith! We appreciate your feedback and sincerely apologize for the appearance of the home upon arrival. We strive to provide the best rental experience possible, however we are only human and sometimes we do miss our mark. Please feel free to call us in the future with any issue you may have and we will send out housekeeping or maintenance to remedy these issues quickly.

It's sometimes difficult to find a great place to stay with a larger group. We are so excited to hear how well the home and the layout worked out for yours.

Great location proximate to Wisp and to the lake. Really great layout for our two families totaling five adults and five kids. But so much was dirty or in disrepair, it was frustrating, especially for the price. Two toilets flush so weakly that they could not get a single piece of toilet paper down. At least one shower head was missing. The coat rack was mounted to drywall without attaching to a stud, causing it to fall out the instant we hung coats on it. The tea kettle in the cupboard was coated in grease. The arm that holds the hot tub cover was precarious - not fully attached to the base. So many items in need of repair, and the cleaning crew needs to move the furniture when vacuuming once in a while.

Hi there, David - I’m very sorry to hear about the disruptions you faced while staying at Walk About Chalet and have shared these comments with our team for review. While our team does their best to bring every rental to tip-top shape for each reservation, we are always happy to revisit the home to ensure your comfort. For future visits to Deep Creek, please know that you can always give us a call within 24 hours of your arrival should any aspect of the maintenance or housekeeping be found unsatisfactory; we’re happy to send someone to accommodate right away. Our team is able to make repairs and clean freely, but any replacements or deep cleaning must be approved by the homeowner, and we will be sharing your review with the owner for use when making updates. Thank you so much for taking a second to share your experience with us, though we regret that it was anything less than exceptional. We hope for the opportunity to remedy any lingering disappointment with a fantastic DCL getaway in the future. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

We had so much fun at Walk About Chalet! The large kitchen, dining room, and living room allowed for everyone in our large group to hang out and eat meals together. The kitchen was well stocked with all of the equipment and utensils you could need. We also enjoyed the privacy of everyone having their own separate bedrooms with plenty of bathrooms, so no one felt cramped or crowded. We did not go skiing, but the proximity to Wisp Resort is a huge plus. We could see skiers coming down the mountain from our view on the back patio. We recommend this place and would stay here again!

We’re glad you enjoyed your stay at Walk About Chalet, Brenna! Thanks for taking a moment to share your experience with us. We hope you’ll visit Deep Creek again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations
