About this property
Spacious and cozy home with gas fireplace, boat dock, and lake views
Almost Heaven is a veritable fisherman’s paradise! With a dock providing lake access, you’re free to bring your boat to this fabulous, family-friendly vacation home with breathtaking views of beautiful Deep Creek Lake. Located in the sought-after Glen Cove neighborhood, this four-bedroom, three-bath house is the perfect place for your family to stay while enjoying everything this area has to offer. In addition to kayaking, swimming, boating, jet skiing and – of course – fishing on the lake, you’re close to some of the area’s best skiing and snowboarding, hiking and mountain biking trails galore, family-friendly adventure parks and arcades, museums, eateries, shops and more. Fun for the whole family!
Almost Heaven features an open floorplan that invites your family to spread out. The ground-floor level features a fabulous living room with a fireplace perfect for cozy fall and winter evenings – enjoy a movie on the smart TV, or surf the web on your device courtesy of the free Wi-Fi. Feel like taking in some fresh air? Step out to the patio to take in the fabulous water view a perfect way to relax after a day of hiking or skiing! Just steps away, a surprisingly spacious eat-in kitchen boasts all the major as well as a microwave, Keurig machine, blender and toaster. The cabinets are stocked with all the dishes, cookware, flatware, gadgets and drinkware you might need. A full bathroom complete with shower/tub combo offers extra convenience, as does a washer and dryer (no need to look for a laundromat).
There’s a second full bathroom with shower/tub combo on Almost Heaven’s upper level; both are stocked with plenty of fresh, fluffy towels. This level is home to a deck that runs the length of the house and offers incredible lake views. You can access the deck from both the upstairs living room and the primary bedroom, which is furnished with a sprawling king-size bed. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are furnished with beautifully made up queen-size beds, while bedroom 4 is perfect for the kids thanks to its set of twin-size beds. All four bedrooms and both living rooms feature smart TVs, so there’s no arguing over what to watch.
Almost Heaven on Deep Creek Lake keeps you close to everything while letting you feel miles away from civilization. Book your stay today!

About the host
Hosted by Kathy Thayer

My husband and I have been vacationing with our family in Deep Creek Lake for over 35 years and we love it here, so we decided to buy a house here and use it for a vacation rental.
Why they chose this property
We love this neighborhood because it's quiet and very kid friendly. Also we have the best neighbors with a very safe atmosphere.
What makes this property unique
We have a lot of parking space on a pretty level lot. We also have a nice spacious yard to play in with a large firepit. We also have a nice community beach area just steps from our house where you can take your lawn chairs and sit by the lake.
