About this property

If you and your family are ready to experience an authentic Deep Creek getaway, then the delightful lakefront home Ski Shore is the perfect choice! Located on a quiet cove on the southern end of the lake, this area is ideal for taking a peaceful stroll in the evenings or just enjoying being away it all.

Hardwood floors and wood accents create the perfect cabin-style ambience throughout the main level. It is easy to imagine gathering with loved ones in the great room to watch a favorite movie on the Blu Ray or curl up in front of a crackling fire in the massive stone fireplace. During the summer months, central AC will keep you cool.

The eat-in kitchen is well equipped whether you are whipping up a quick picnic lunch or making a big homestyle breakfast.

The main level also offers a full bath with a shower only and two of bedrooms both with queen sized beds. Decorated with your comfort in mind, you will wake up refreshed and ready to tackle new adventures!

Head down the spiral staircase to find the family room that expands your living space. You can watch TV while the kids can break out the board games or play foosball. There is also a bedroom with a queen bed and a full bath on this level.

Head outside and let the real adventure begin! The partially covered deck overlooks the lake and will become your own private outdoor oasis. Each morning, you can take in the gorgeous views as you unwind on the deck with a cup of hot coffee.

Summer days were meant to be spent in the water and your private dock allows you to do just that! Rent a boat or just pass your time idly swimming and playing in the lake. The dock ladder is an added plus and a true convenience for getting in and out of the water. Bring a boat, or rent one locally, to cruise quiet coves and miles of shoreline.

The back patio has a built-in fireplace that is ideal for toasting marshmallows on crisp mountain nights. After the kids go to bed, you can stargaze and relax in the bubbling outdoor hot tub.

Ski Shore is off-the-beaten-path yet still within a ten to fifteen-minute drive from favorite attractions, restaurants and shops. There is something for everyone in your crew! Nature lovers can explore the area's eight state parks that have hiking trails, abundant wildlife, cross country skiing and more. The adrenaline junkie in your group will enjoy white water rafting at the Adventure Sports Center or soaring through the air on the zipline at Monkey Business Adventure Park. For those that prefer a more leisurely pace, there are lots of antique shops in Oakland's historic downtown along with great diners and museums.

The lake is calling your name, so reserve today to begin planning your next Deep Creek escape at Ski Shore!

Fall

The house was clean. Nice view of the lake, nice fire pit and internal and external fireplaces. Better directions regarding location of circuit boxes would have been helpful. The hot tub kept cutting off with a message stating maintenance needs. The company responded quickly to get someone out but it continued to happen even after his visit which was frustrating.

Long weekend

The property was clean, comfortable, and exactly as advertised. Owner's/managment company was very responsive, and happy to help. Loads of great activities nearby but we mostly chose to relax in the hot tub or simply sit and enjoy the views of the lake and a warm fire.

Ski Shore

Great property! Loved hot tub Few key points: Steep decline and incline to and from the lake, house is in residential area and neighbors next door have dogs that bark constantly and are close to house . Pack extra of everything, no spices, paper products, etc that are usually left behind. There is an additional charge if you want to check in early as well.

Ski Shore Review

Overall it was an enjoyable experience at Ski Shore. The online description was accurate and my family and I enjoyed the outdoor areas immensely. That being said there were a few minor annoyances. One bed did not have sheets which we did not notice until nighttime. When I called the next morning the sheets were delivered by the end of business that day. One of the lamps in the master bedroom does not work. Also there is no pull chain on one of the living room fans, and when you turn on the light the fan is constantly on high. These items were not corrected during our stay after I reported them. There’s no cutting board or measuring cups or spoons in the kitchen. I liked the the company provides dish soap and dishwasher pods to get you started. Overall we had a great experience at Ski Shore.
