Deep Creek Family Trip

We stayed for a long weekend at “Almost heaven”. We really enjoyed the location- just a walk across the street to enjoy the dock and small beach area! (We brought our kayak and paddleboards and were able to just walk them over to get on the lake!) The location is great for a trip to the state park and close to town for necessities. We also enjoyed a fire out in the beautiful fire pit! The house was plenty spacious for our family trip (8 adults and 2 kids)Kathy was very prompt to respond to any questions!

Lake stay 2025

The house and property were very nice, they definitely need to install more air conditioning units on the middle and bottom floor. Other than that it was a great place to stay!
