Pleasing whimsical touches and artsy accents are abundant in this lakefront cottage jewel. Soft greens and powder blues adorn the interior and blend seamlessly with the lush natural setting of "Whispering Pines." The downstairs hearth room, just off the kitchen/dining area, has a splendid - no, make that spectacular - view of Deep Creek Lake. A private, lit walkway takes you right down to the docks and the water's edge. A generous outdoor patio is as perfect for entertaining friends as it is for memorable moments with family - plan on having many! The home is conveniently located within minutes of the State Park and could be the perfect place to gather for your next family reunion or company retreat!

Nice , 4 bedroom house right on the lake. Washer/dryer was good. Fireplace was nice on cold days. Full kitchen was supplied with all needed utensils. Beds were not as comfortable as we would have liked. Different floor levels were a little cumbersome to get used to. Overall a nice, comfortable stay!
We had a very nice Thanksgiving weekend. The house was perfect for our family. Beautiful view, close to stores and restaurants and we really enjoyed the hot tub.
A great location on Deep Creek with a great outdoor space and easy access to the dock. Check in was easy, the place comfortably fit our group and there is plenty of parking.
Right on the lake, comfortable and relatively clean.
We stayed at this property during Labor day week-end. The house was as it looked on the pictures, except that two of the 4 bedrooms do not have windows, which I don't think comply with fire safety laws. We asked the kids to keep their door open at night since it was their only escape way in case of fire. The kitchen had plenty of dishes and utensils. The house was a bit dated but homey. It looked clean at first glance, but there was lots of dust under the furniture and sofas (as often seen in vacation rentals). We liked the hot-tub (clean) and the immediate access to the lake. Overall, we had a good experience and would return.
The house had a great location, the owner was great to communicate with and the house had all the amenities we needed to have a wonderful trip. We will definitely stay here again in the future overall wonderful place!
The house has a lot of cute character and it was the perfect size for two couples. The steps down to the dock gave us quite the workout carrying our kayaks, but the location and access can't be beat. We absolutely loved our stay there! Neighborhood is gorgeous and everyone we talked with was wonderfully friendly.
Wispering Pines was a quaint and peaceful place to stay. While the walk down to the docks contained a lot of stairs, the lakefront location was perfect for our family’s needs. Kids enjoyed swimming off the dock and the hot tub. Adults enjoyed the separate sitting rooms and plentiful spaces for relaxation. Secondary rooms were small and became hot with doors closed but they did the trick. We enjoyed the books and games provided. Overall a very nice house!
The house was situated in a perfect location, convenient and secluded, and right on the lake!
The house was quirky and full of character, which we loved! The built in games and hot tub were a hit for all.
Thanks for a great stay!
We truly enjoyed our 4 day stay during the beautiful Fall season. Our weather was fantastic and we loved sitting by the lake and using the fire pit and hot tub! We hiked New Germany State Park, Big Run State Park, Herrington Manor State Park as well as Deep Creek State Park. We enjoyed it all!!
The property is located perfectly inside of Deep Creeks inlets and had such amazing views. Check in/out was simple and straightforward. The hot tub was awesome and took advantage of the great views! A+++ loved our stay, wish we could’ve stayed longer.
Great place to spend a holiday with friends & family!
Our holiday stay was a pure delight. The charming fireplace added a cozy touch, perfect for chilly evenings, and the private beach was simply breathtaking.
Additionally, Scott was incredibly responsive, ensuring that any questions or concerns were addressed in a timely manner. Highly recommended for a peaceful getaway.
Quiet in the winter. Lots of space to spread out. Hot tub is nice and the kids enjoyed the frozen lake.

About the host
Hosted by Scott Heinrich
Shawn and I grew up nearby and have always dreamed of owning a place of our own at Deep Creek Lake. We currently live in North Carolina but love our frequent trips back to the Lake! Hope you enjoy it as well. This is a great place to "hide away" and to do business. Also, you can find Shawn's favorite past-time on Etsy. We love to travel the world for business and pleasure. Enjoy our home!
