We had a second visit to the inn and it was even better than the first! We were greeted like old friends, our room was decorated in a charming lake theme, and was very clean. There are two restaurants within walking distance of the hotel and both have delicious food and excellent service. I would recommend the western omelette at Little Sandy’s Restaurant—quite possibly the best in the world or at least the 5 countries I have tried! The Rowdy Rooster has a great atmosphere and some awesome Buffalo chicken dip! Although we stayed as a stopover on a longer trip we plan to return and check out all that the area has to offer, and of course we will stay at The Garrett Inn when we do!

Excellent staff, very pretty and unique place to stay! I loved how the rooms were cozy and decorated, and how it was located right off 219. Could hear the highway noise at times, but not bad with the AC Unit running. Very clean, and the staff made everything so easy! Highly recommend!

We headed to Deep Creek Lake for a quick getaway and we were not disappointed with this hotel. On the outside it looks like an older 1950s-style roadside motel. However, on the inside the rooms are beautifully renovated, clean and spacious. The room came with all of the amenities including a small refrigerator, microwave and coffee station. Did I mention how clean they are? And the price was phenomenal for a summer stay at the lake. Five stars and we will definitely be back!
