  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.
  2. Golf Area
    Refers to a selection of our properties which are the most conveniently located within or near a golfing community. Some homes under Lake Front, Lake Access, or Lake Area categories may also be considered a Golf Area property.

We rented Waterfront Links for Labor Day weekend with family and friends. Here are the pros: The house was a good size for all eight of us and could have easily slept one more couple. There are 5 king en suite bedrooms as advertised, which is convenient for 5 couples. Definitely not 14 guests as listed. There would not be enough room in the kitchen for everyone for that many! The location is great. Pretty neighborhood and the neighbors and their dogs were all friendly. It was a short walk to the cove with a dock slip which was great for the boat we rented for the weekend. The yard is spacious and we enjoyed grilling our dinner and sitting around the fire pit. Now for the cons: The house was not very clean. The upholstered furniture and carpets were dirty and badly stained and there were cobwebs in corners and some of the light fixtures. The kitchen wasn't terribly clean either. Unfortunately we were left with no cleaning supplies or garbage bags, so we were only able to clean minimally after ourselves throughout the weekend with basic supplies that we purchased at Arrowhead Market. The sheets and towels were very poor quality. Both were very scratchy and made us question how clean the comforters and pillows were. The mattresses are in desperate need of replacing. Some of the lights did not work. We did not use the indoor pool. The overwhelming chlorine smell reminded us of a hotel pool, which means it is clean (it was cleaned while we were there), but we found it and unnecessary amenity. Maybe it would be preferred for families with young children renting in the cold months. Overall, we did have a great weekend at Waterfront Links and appreciate that they allow dogs and have dock access, but it was overpriced for what it was. Maybe it would be better if it was updated a bit and cleaner. We would definitely rent another house in the neighborhood. Unfortunately we did not utilize the golf or tennis facilities, but appreciated that we had that opportunity.

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback regarding your recent stay at Waterfront Links over Labor Day weekend Deborah. We are pleased to hear that you found our property spacious enough for your group and appreciated its prime location within a friendly neighborhood. However we sincerely apologize for the cleanliness issues you encountered during your visit. Your comments regarding the state of the upholstered furniture, carpets, and kitchen have been noted and will be addressed with our housekeeping team and homeowners immediately. We strive to maintain high standards of cleanliness and regret that we fell short in this instance. Additionally, we appreciate your input on the quality of linens provided as well as the condition of certain amenities like mattresses and lighting fixtures. Your insights are invaluable as they help us identify areas where improvements can be made. While we understand that not all features met your expectations—such as the indoor pool—we're glad you enjoyed other aspects like grilling in the yard and having dock access for your boat. Your overall satisfaction is important to us; and we will take your suggestions into consideration as we work towards enhancing our guests' experiences in future stays. Thank you once again for sharing both positive remarks and constructive criticism; it is through feedback like yours that we can continue to improve. We hope you'll consider staying with us again or exploring other properties in our neighborhood in future visits. Madison, Railey Vacations

Beautiful Home but needs some TLC

Waterfront Links is a beautiful home and our family had a nice time. Pros: the golf course across the street the indoor pool walking distance to tennis and pickleball courts large backyard for family outdoor games and dogs to run around free of the goose poop. Cons: Poor upkeep of the home grill did not work called to get the AC on the kitchen sink faucet leaked onto the counter the hot tub was 70 degrees (took us two days to get it going and warm) Little things were broken like door knobs, lights in the home and pool, no chalk for the pool sticks.....etc. not really "lakefront" - quite a walk to the lake, especially carrying two rental kayaks. Waterfront Links is a beautiful home but does not meet the standards for a "Signature Collection" home as is.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Waterfront Links Marla. We are so glad to hear that you found our home beautiful and that your family enjoyed various recreational activities nearby—especially the golf course and indoor pool. However, we sincerely apologize for the maintenance issues you encountered during your stay. Your feedback regarding the grill not functioning properly, along with problems related to air conditioning and plumbing fixtures, will be addressed as soon as possible with our maintenance team, property management and homeowners. We also regret any inconvenience caused by the hot tub's initial temperature and appreciate your patience as we worked on resolving this issue. Additionally, we acknowledge your comments about minor repairs needed within the home and will ensure that these are addressed swiftly. We would like to comment on "lakefront" issue, per our website lakefront is described as 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. Thank you again for your feedback and we hope to have the opportunity to rent to you again in the future where I am confident we can provide a better rental experience. Madison, Railey Vacations

We had a lovely time at this house. The amount of room is deceiving from the outside. I slept upstairs and really had no issues with family in the downstairs making noise. It was a nice walk to the lake and the dock. Enjoyed the pool and hot tub tremendously!

Thanks for the kind words, Lori! We are happy to hear that the home was all you had expected and the amenities were well-equipped. We hope to have the chance to rent to you again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

Waterfront Links has so much potential but needs an overhaul and TLC. This is a beautiful home, but should not be a Signature Collection rental home as is. There were so many things broken and not working properly upon arrival. Some were more minor details like burned-out light bulbs and broken door knobs. Some of the laminate floor boards were sliding and lifting. My daughter even got a splinter from the floor. The grill did not work, so we had to call for a loaner. The hot tub was 70 degrees with a single pump and a weak jet stream. We had to wait 2 days to use the hot tub. The AC was turned off so the home was hot upon arrival and we had to call to have it turned on. The kitchen sink handle leaked and a broken chair was in the dining area. Cleaning could have been better but many things just need replaced. The pool guy came by and put chemicals in the pool. He turned on the water hose and left. We had to turn the hose off so that it didn't overflow. He didn't come back or tell us anything. This house has so much potential but has been let go. This being said, we still had a great week. The home is beautiful and we loved the big yard for games and our dogs. The boys loved having the par 3 golf course across the street. It was a bit of a walk to the lake, especially trying to drag two rental kayaks. An indoor pool was nice when it rained, even though the light inside the pool didn't work for night swimming. The kids also enjoyed the pool table and walking to the tennis/pickle ball courts. We do love all the amenities at Waterfront Greens.

Hi Marla! Thank you for taking the time to provide detailed feedback on your recent stay at Waterfront Links. We appreciate your insights and are truly sorry to hear about the issues you encountered during your visit. Rest assured, we take all guest feedback seriously and will address each of the maintenance concerns you have raised with our property management team. Your comments regarding broken items, cleanliness, and overall upkeep are duly noted, and we will work diligently to ensure that these issues are promptly resolved within the correct departments. We are delighted to hear that despite these challenges, you were still able to enjoy your time at our beautiful home and make use of the amenities available in the area. Your positive comments about the property's potential mean a lot to us, and we strive to meet and exceed your expectations in the future. Once again, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for an improved stay that reflects our commitment to providing exceptional service. Madison, Railey Vacations

House was nice for a larger group, including kids of various ages. The rooms were nice but there was nothing outstanding or great to report. Would have liked to have been able to use the indoor pool more but it was cold in the pool room no matter what Railey set the temperature to. Make sure to bring a Fire stick or Roku as the TVs aren’t truly Smart TVs . They are very dated. It was fine as a family vacation but would not go again to this particular house.

Hi Kelley! We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you did enjoy your time here at Waterfront Links. We will be sure to pass along your suggestions concerning the TV's for future improvements to the home as well as have our hot tub department assess the pool to ensure that it is working properly for future rentals. We hope to have the opportunity to rent to you again for a better rental experience. Madison, Railey Vacations

I booked this home due to it's location and the indoor pool. We were pleased with both of those items. However, I expected much nicer furnishings/mattresses. They furniture is very dated/run down. That was possibly the worst mattress I've ever slept on. It was extremely thin and the springs were poking through. For the price of this home, I expected much nicer quality interior.

Hi Matt. We appreciate you taking the time out to leave us with your feedback! We apologize for the inconvenience concerning the furnishings and bedding and will be sure to pass this along to the homeowners so that they can make future improvements to the home. Otherwise we hope that you and your group enjoyed the indoor pool as well as the location and to have the opportunity to rent to you again in the future for a better rental experience!

GREAT VACATION

Had a great vacation and, just as expected, the pool was a BIG hit with the kids (and adults, too)! Photos made the kitchen and dining area appear larger than they actually were in person, but it was fine. Some past rentals had been stocked with some spices and condiments, but I assume they've been eliminated for safety purposes (COVID) or perhaps this home just didn't provide. Not a big deal, but it would have been nice to have some basics (salt, pepper, oil) on hand already. The beds aren't super comfortable, but that comes with the territory in a rental - the fitted sheets don't fit well. We had a beautiful firepit night and the home was well-stocked with wood to keep it going for hours. The TV in the primary bedroom was missing a remote to control the smart TV capabilities. The house overall seems to be best suited for small families or a group of friends. The house isn't really waterfront...you can barely see the edge of the cove from the house. Great yard and lovely neighborhood. Would love to see a fenced in area for the dogs but HOA likely prohibits that. Had zero cell service (data) so could only make calls and send texts through Wi-Fi. Overall, the house was beautiful and we had a nice week. Might stay again with friends or other couples.

I'm glad to know that your group had a great stay at Waterfront Links overall, Jackie, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts about how your next visit can be even better than the last! For our guests' safety and to ensure the cleanliness of the home, we do not provide any food items. In "normal" times, some homeowners may choose to provide spices and other kitchen standards, but until we are safely on the other side of the pandemic, we are asking this to be put on hold. We hope you'll be glad to know that the owners of Waterfront Links recently ordered new mattresses! With this will come better-fitting sheets, too. Though this is a Lake Front home (i.e. you can go directly from the home to the water without crossing any roads), we do provide a disclaimer that not all Lake Front homes will have a lake view, as much of our shoreline is wooded. While many HOAs do prohibit the installment of fences, we've shared your feedback with the owners for consideration. Thanks so much for your review, and we hope to host you again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations

Interesting house, nice amenities. The pool area is nice. It actually has two full size refrigerators. We had problems with the AC while there. The kitchen area is narrow and small. Not a lot of pantry storage. There is a good 8 minute walk to the lake - its not really "lake front". If you expect to walk out the door and into the lake you will be disappointed.

We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Waterfront Links overall, Lisa. Our future guests will surely find your descriptions of the home and your stay helpful, and we thank you for taking the time to share.

Pool was great, especially for the grandkids. Glad it was a pet friendly house, since the dog is older and no longer able to stay at a boarding kennel. The propane tank ran out during the only use of the gas grill. I called before 10am the next day and was told a work order would be placed to replace the tank. By the time we checked out the next morning there was still no replacement tank. The air conditioner didn't cool the whole house sufficiently. The mattresses on all of the beds are very stiff. Very little pantry space in the kitchen, few bowls and no mixer. Overall our stay was good, but not great, Not nearly as good as other Railey houses we've stayed in, such as Beyond Bliss.

Thanks for your feedback, Robert! We’re so glad you enjoyed your time at Waterfront Links, and are happy to hear that your pup was comfortable, too! We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and some tips on how your next visit can be even better than the last. First, please allow me to apologize that your propane tank wasn’t refilled prior to your departure. We are always happy to refill propane, and I will check with our team on why this request wasn’t resolved promptly. Thank you for alerting us to this concern. We’ve also shared your feedback regarding the a/c with our maintenance team and will have this issue addressed ASAP. The homeowner was thankful for your insight on the bedding and we hope you’ll be happy to hear that new mattresses are on the way! They are also considering ways to improve the kitchenware.

My first time in DEEP CREEK and I had the pleasure of staying at the Waterfront Links. The community is still being developed and was very pretty. It was clean, cozy, and everything I imagined it would be. Only thing I ran into was when we first arrived whoever did the maintenance on the pool and jacuzzi, left the hose and water running. We were able to call and get immediate assistance. My 40th Birthday was a success. I look forward to staying here again or at another Railey home.

Waterfront Links is a beautiful well furnished home. We loved the separation of the levels so that my son and his family could have the entire upper level and we had the lower level since there is a master on the first level. We loved being able to spend quality time with my son and his family. Our grandchildren are 2 and 1 and we really needed this time with them to reconnect after 2020. The only negatives (and they are minor but should be noted for the owners) are the need to replace the silicone spatulas (they are very worn), the addition of a large cutting board, a knife sharpener and a grater. As I said, these are minor, but we did take note of them. Another negative, and this effected us more so than anything, was that the pool was not able to be used the first 3 days. Renting a house specifically for the inside pool and then not being able to use it for several days did not make Momma a happy camper. I realize this was not the owners, not the rental companies fault, but it was certainly a bummer to the grandkids.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience, Debbie! Your feedback is an invaluable component to ensuring quality for each of our guests. I'm so glad to hear that you had a wonderful vacation despite the few concerns listed here. We sure do hope to see you again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

Too long of a walk from house to dock - very tiring for our older family members. If they were at least able to SEE the lake from the house it would have made a big difference. Very disappointed in a home listed as “lakefront.” One BIG positive was the indoor pool. We used it every day and loved having that amenity available for our stay.

Hi Bonnie, so sorry the home didn't quite meet your expectations with the lakefront. By definition, Lake Front homes mean 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. So glad you enjoyed the indoor pool and please feel free to reach out to our wonderful reservationists if you'd like some assistance with finding another rental which offers a shorter walk to the lake and/or a closer view! - Jenn, Railey Vacations

This trip to your home turned us all into Lake Life people!! :) The community and ALL the SPACE -- was so very lovely! Especially during COVID -- honestly, it was social distance heaven. And we thought it was absoultely IDEAL to be in this inlet area. I am an open water swimmer, and we would get up most mornings .... I would go for a swim around the inlet area (w a buoy attached to me), the kids/other adults would do some stand up paddle boarding. Then we would go out on the pontoon we rented. Absolutely loved the inlet area -- felt so safe and fun. Would not have had same experience if we were on the main part of the lake. Loved the fire pit. Having a pool table was great too for evenings. LOVED the deck attached to the two bedrooms on top floor. (the adults took those rooms -- and we spent a lot of time reading and doing work out there). Loved the deck on first level too - ate breakfast there every morning and enjoyed the peacefulness and view. The short walk to the dock/boat slip was no problem, either. Again, appreciated all the space. THANK YOU!!!

We normally go to the beach for Summer vacation and stay in beautiful condos. This year due to all of last year's shark warnings, packed swimming pools and hot tubs... we decide to go to the lake. The home we stayed in was the best choice for us because it met our family's needs and wants to include added bonus of indoor pool and private hot tub. Kathy, a very kind and informative Railey rep helped us to book this vacation. She told me that once we come and stay we will always want to come back....She was absolutely correct... We are already booked for 2018 and my husband and two boys ages 11 and 7 and me wouldn't have it any other way.
