Experience the best of Deep Creek Lake at this three-bedroom home in McHenry, an expansive escape with rolling lawns, sweeping views from the wrap-around porch, and a private, stocked fishing pond perfect for summer enjoyment.
Conveniently located just two miles from the northern shores of Deep Creek Lake and only a mile from the back slopes of Wisp Resort, this home is close to an array of activities, including whitewater rafting, boat rentals, wedding venues, county fairgrounds, ski slopes, and lakefront beaches.
The covered front porch, adorned with classic wood rocking chairs, invites you to relax and soak in the charm. Inside, the home is fully equipped with all the comforts and essentials you need. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and ample cabinet storage, while the dining table comfortably seats up to eight. The living room offers plush sofas positioned in front of a flatscreen TV, making it ideal for family gatherings and movie nights. On chilly evenings, the gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance. Glass doors lead to the other side of the wrap-around porch, where you can enjoy additional seating and stunning views of the pond. Sip your morning coffee or evening cocktails while observing the blue heron, deer, and other wildlife that frequent the area.
The outdoor spaces are equally inviting, featuring a firepit surrounded by Adirondack chairs, a gas grill for summer barbecues, and a patio with a fire table and cushioned seating. Challenge each other to a game of cornhole with the set provided. End your evenings in the ground-floor game room, equipped with a pool table, a dartboard, and another TV area with a wood stove. When it's time to turn in, you'll find one bedroom on the ground floor and two more upstairs, with a full bathroom on each level for added convenience.

The property was just as advertised. It was comfortable and we enjoyed the numerous outdoor areas. The location was convenient to the activities that we wanted to do ( rented a pontoon, horseback riding, kayak rental) Would return to this property.

Peaceful getaway in Deep Creek
This was a wonderful house and perfect for a long holiday weekend. Situated in a quiet and scenic development, the house was well appointed and equipped for our family. We were also so happy we could bring our dog, who also enjoyed seeing all of the wildlife. I definitely recommend this property and plan to rent it again myself!

Gleanings Pond, McHenry
We very much enjoyed our stay in the house at Gleanings Pond. We've stayed in the Gleanings neighborhood before, and it remains really nice and quiet. This house was well appointed and with some of the most comfortable furniture we've ever had in a rental house. The outside was pure pleasure, and the location was great for what we wanted to do.

A wonderful retreat for my family and furry girl
The house exceeded our expectations! We had a fantastic time enjoying the beautiful and peaceful landscape. The house was very clean and exactly like the pictures. We enjoyed visiting the Swallow Falls and Deep Creek lake. We were able to watch all the fireworks from the backyard while grilling and playing. Perfect for our dog to run and play safely. We had a fabulous time! Look forward to next year. Thank you for letting us stay at your home!

Great Reunion site
We had two families and we were able to have the kids relax and run around the property and enjoy our weekend. The property is laid out great that we had time together and still to be separated at night.

Arrival day.
This property was nice however, a few things that I would suggest. I suggest that the day of arrival, someone needs to go and check the property. There were many dead bugs in the house. Also the house was very cold. I suggest that the heat or air be turned on the day travelers arrive.
