About this house rental
Nestled on the shores of Deep Creek Lake, Wispering Waters is an ideal choice for your next getaway with family and friends.
Ideal for gathering with your favorite people, the main level has an open floor plan with scenic lake views and plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Cathedral ceilings, a wall of windows and gleaming hardwood floors are just a few of the highlights. Gather around the glow of a crackling fire in the great room to swap stories about your day at Deep Creek or watch your favorite family movie on the Blu Ray DVD player.
The chefs in your group will be delighted by the granite counters, ample cabinet space and stainless steel appliances in the kitchen. With seating at the kitchen island and at the dining table, you can easily sit together to share meals when you're not trying out local restaurants. On sunny summer days, take advantage of the adjacent deck with a gas grill and host an afternoon BBQ.
Furnished with your comfort in mind, two bedrooms are located on this level. Each is outfitted with a queen bed and TV. After a long day of hiking, biking or skiing, you can rest up and get ready for another day filled with adventures.
Upstairs, you will find a private primary suite with a king bed and a TV that gives you a separate space when you need a little quiet time. A soothing soak in the oversized jetted tub will leave you completely relaxed and refreshed.
Head downstairs for fun and games in the family room! A pool table and a wall-mounted TV will keep you entertained. The wet bar is complete with a mini-refrigerator, so you can keep snacks and drinks handy. Two bedrooms, each with two twins and a TV, round out the sleeping quarters. For your convenience, a full bath is also located on this level.
Overlooking the lake, the upper level deck will bring you hours of enjoyment. Sip your morning coffee on misty autumn mornings or soak up the summer sunshine surrounded by beautiful scenery. A short walk (some stairs) leads to your shared dock and boat slip, so be sure to bring your boat or rent one at a local marina. Swimming and fishing are favorite pastimes when you're not exploring the lake's quiet coves and miles of shoreline.
Centrally located, popular area attractions, activities and restaurants are within a five-minute drive. Wisp Resort offers four seasons of fun with options that include ziplining, mountain coaster rides, Segway tours, snow tubing, ice skating, skiing, and much more! Atop Wisp Mountain, you will find the Adventure Sports Center International where you can take a thrilling white water tour or try your hand at rock climbing. Drive just a few minutes further to discover area state parks. You can hike to a scenic waterfall, learn to cross country ski or watch naturalists feed birds in the aviary.
Choose Wispering Waters for your next family vacation and look forward to making lasting memories with your favorite people.
For your convenience, this home offers free wifi. Wispering Waters offers a membership to the Community Aquatic Recreation Complex (CARC). You can enjoy the indoor pool and fitness facilities during your stay. Get more info.

We decided to stop in Deep Creek to decompress on our way home to Ohio after an unfortunate family trip to Maryland. We booked Wispering Waters last minute based on the description on VRBO and it turned out to be exactly what we needed. The property was clean, easy to access, and a great location. We will definitely consider Wispering Waters again.

Our stay was quite pleasant, except for the steps to the dock area(very dangerous). I would notadvise renting if someone is handicapped! Overall the rental was very clean and supplied as stated.

We had a great time at this lovely property. It was a 2 minute drive to wisp resort which is why we booked this property. The size was perfect for 10 people. We really enjoyed the hot tub and views of deep creek lake. Would rent again.

The house was perfect for all of us. The view was stunning and the house was stocked with everything we needed. It was a bit of a pain walking to the side of the house to get firewood for the fireplace. I would definitely recommend a better bbq outside and an outdoor heater on the deck would have been awesome! The hot tub was low on water and was dirty but I called and Chad was out within 20 minutes to fix the problem. Very professional! Overall stay was nice. The driveway was way steeper than the listing described but we managed. Thank you for a great stay! We will definitely be returning!

This place had everything! Even s’mores sticks by the fire pit. We loved it! Perfect for 2 families. We even saw bear. Renting the pontoon boat for the week made it a perfect vacation with teens!

The house is in an amazing location overlooking the lake. Convenient location and easy to find. Parking not an issue at all. Plenty of space for 5 cars. Inside the house is very nicely laid out and the kitchen is very well stocked with appliances and cooking utensils. Hot tub was amazing. We enjoyed our stay immensely.
I would say the house is perfect for 8 people. Yes it has 5 bedrooms and all are super convenient, but overall the size of the living space is very small. The basement is pretty tiny. Once you open the ping pong table, there is not much room to move around. Also the grill was not very useful. Even though fresh propane was left for us (thank you) the grill itself is a cheaper model and wouldn't heat up over 350 degrees. That is not very hot for trying to cook a steak. We managed using skillets and oven, but it was a slight disappointment. I didn't bother to call, because we were content with using a skillet.
Overall, we loved our stay and the property. Would definitely return when the weather is warmer. Thanks again!

Our 2nd year at Wispering Waters - 3 generations, 10 people from age 2-65. We love the house and the location! Some attention to details from Maintenance was lacking this year; and the response from Maintenance after 3 calls was very disappointing. Hopefully this is a isolated issue and doesn’t continue

very steep driveway, 50 yards of steps downhill to water without a handrail which is dangerous and slippery, titled steps and rocky separation between dock and retaining wall which is accident waiting to happen, inside clean and rooms were in good condition as displayed on website. Good location, close to everything.

We rented this property for New Years weekend and it was amazing. The property, the location, amenities, etc. were great. The only issue was that the listing referenced 5 parking spots; however, even with 4WD trucks, the driveway was way too steep to use, leaving us only 3 parking spaces on the road. We ended up parking our extra car at Wisp (< 1 mile away) and that worked perfectly. Check in and out was very smooth and easy, and I look forward to renting again next year!

Beautiful home, perfect setting, great amenities. The only complaint would be wasps and bees. This would be very concerning if or was allergic. We had small children and a baby so this was alarming for us. Otherwise loved the home!
