About this property

Ever After | Lakefront, Hot Tub + Dock Slip

Your fairy tale vacation starts at Ever After! This lake front home promises a memorable vacation experience. Three floors of living space plus a separate carriage house with a 120 inch home theater and an oversized game room makes this property stand-out from the crowd.

The main level offers a central gathering area with an open floorplan that is ideal for entertaining. Hardwood floors and cathedral ceilings combine with views of the lake through the treetops to create a bright and inviting atmosphere. Acting as a central hub, the spacious great room is where everyone will meet up throughout the day to make plans for everything from skiing and boating to hiking and biking. When the sun goes down, the wood burning, native stone fireplace provides a cozy backdrop that is hard to resist on cool mountain nights.

Share family-style meals together at the expansive handmade dining room table with seating for up to eighteen. The well-equipped kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. You can also dine outdoors as you enjoy the view from the adjacent wrap-around deck. It is partially covered, so you can use it rain or shine.

Two spacious bedrooms are located on the main level. Each has a king bed with a flat screen TV and Blu-Ray/DVD player.

Upstairs, the loft is a place where both kids and adults can hang-out, watch TV or just relax. Additionally, it is a sleeping area with a queen sleeper sofa. A generously sized primary suite is located on this level with a king bed and private bath with Jacuzzi tub. Above this is a large 4th floor primary suite, also with a king bed and private bath, giving you a separate space where you can catch up on your rest.

Head to the lower level family room when you want to kick-back and watch the big game on a 65 inch TV. Just outside on the lower deck, you will find the bubbling hot tub where the weight of your worries will fade away. Three additional bedrooms, one with a king and two with queen beds, are on this floor. Surrounded by tasteful decor, it will be easy to get your beauty sleep each night when you retire.

Offering two levels of entertainment, the carriage house boasts a 120" movie theater screen with a Blu-Ray DVD player and surround sound. This is how classic movies and major sporting events are meant to be watched! Upstairs, you can rack 'em up on the pool table or find out who is the best at fussball. You can also relive your childhood or introduce a new generation to the 80's with a classic stand-up 60-in-1 arcade game.

Lakeside, the fire pit is only steps away for roasting marshmallows and sharing stories. Just beyond that is the idyllic gazebo where afternoon picnics are a must. For time on the lake, bring your boat or rent one from a local marina and get ready for on-the-water fun! Spend sunny days swimming, fishing, and tubing with your favorite people, then just pull into the dock slip and you're back home.

The convenient location puts you in the heart of area activities. Within less than one mile, you will find some of the most popular restaurants along with a well-stocked market. Within ten to fifteen minutes you can visit the Discovery Center at Deep Creek Lake State Park, ski at Wisp Resort, or hike at Swallow Falls State Park. Each season offers exciting adventures for outdoor enthusiasts.

Make treasured vacation memories with your favorite people at Ever After!

For your convenience, this home offers free WIFI and electric vehicle charger.

Great Family Weekend!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family of 8 truly enjoyed staying at this property for our annual vacation. It is huge and spread out over 4 floors, so you can really separate when needed. The guest/game house with theater room is an added bonus! Even though the weather was terrible and we weren't able to use the fire pit or dock/lake for swimming there was still plenty to do. A great hiking trail, pontoon boat rental and brewery with trivia on Thursday nights were only a few minutes away. Can't wait to come back during the warmer summer months. Thanks Taylor Made for a great place to stay!

Ever After--- Needs Improvement

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Taylor Made tried the best to make it a good experience, but please tell the owners we will never come back because of the condition of the place-- dirty carpets, outside deck covered in spider webs, not swept at all-- easy stuff to handle-- but for the price, we had to clean the floor with a mop-- and they came up very dirty. Also-- the dishwasher stopped working day 3-- with 3 grandkids, 11 total-- this was never fixed, although you tried-- I think the owner just wanted to go as cheap as possible-- whatever-- we made the best of it, but will never be back. I know you tried, but it takes the owner recognizing that investing a little bit of money will actually make more-- I have a number of rentals and always works that way.

Girlfriends’ Reunion

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our group of high school girlfriends and spouses have been meeting annually at a different location every fall for the past 16 years.This year we chose “Ever After” as our reunion site and it did not disappoint. The home was very comfortable for our group of 11. Please note that all rooms do not have private baths and some rooms share bathrooms. There are a lot of activities in the area around Deep Creek Lake with several state parks and historical sites close by as well as grocery stores and shopping. In spite of some rainy weather remnants from hurricane Florence during the week, we had plenty to do and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ever After is very roomy but could stand some upkeep with hot tub and tv’s. There needs to be a TV in the carriage house in the room where the futons are for anyone sleeping there, the correct TV I’d in the next room

Great Location on the Lake

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There was a trail from our property to the dock, but our actual dock space was 2 houses over. Would have never realized that from the maps we viewed ahead of time. The house had a strange smell from arrival for duration of the trip. with the huge table and benches, I think it needed a good scrubbing. When we arrived the kitchen counters and table had not been wiped. The oven did not heat correctly, the dishwasher did not release the soap, it took us a few days to figure out to just add it to the main compartment, the fridge doors in the kitchen had broken shelves which took away from out main storage fridge. The decks and outside area needed a good hosing. The carriage house was listed with a tv room, but that room was empty with no furniture or tv. The theater room was however there. I would say it was a nice house but could use some new appliances and a thorough cleaning and a powerwash outside.

Fabulous house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was fabulous! We were told house was a flat, shirt walk to the dock. Our dock was not even in front of our house. We had to walk in front of neighbors to our right, down a slope, to get to out dock! Very misleading! My sweet 84 year old Mom who paid for the house would only go down once a day! The movie house was super fun! Great bedrooms! Awesome outside table for 16!

Ever After review 7/8/2017- 815/217

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a very relaxing, enjoyable week while staying at Ever After the week of 7/8/17 to 7/15/17. Our check in was delayed because the prior tenants did not check out by the designated time. They also apparently left the house a mess, with trash through out the property. The cleaning personnel did a good job but they were not able to clean the multiple carpet stains caused by the prior occupants. They rental agents were very responsive to our service needs and checked back to make certain we were satisfied. I kitchen was well equipped with the exceptions of adequate serving dishes, the plastic bowls are too flimsy. We would also like to have had kayaks available for renters use. We have already reserved the property for next year.

Did not get a chance to experience any activities due to weather, but we did not feel as though we missed out, the house was more than enough for my friends and me.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was amazing and clean. The only bad things were the restocking of the firewood, only 3 bundles a day, and cleaning of the hot tub the second day of being there. The hot tub was drained and the water sat and smelled up the entire basement area and we couldn't use the hot tub till the next day.
