About this house rental

Just what you had in mind when you envisioned the perfect vacation haven, Sunny Boy is a beautiful chalet that will fulfill all your expectations.

Designed with your comfort in mind, this home boasts a main level great room with floor-to-ceiling windows that reveal views of the lake and the ski slopes at Wisp Resort. Cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors and a stone fireplace combine to create the perfect ambiance for a gathering of family and friends. Expanding your living space, the adjacent deck overlooks McHenry Cove and is ideal for lazy afternoons soaking up some sun.

The open-floorplan makes entertaining a breeze! You chime in on any conversation as you make a homemade dinner in the well-equipped kitchen. There is plenty of room for everyone to gather at mealtime with seating for eight at the dining table and two at the breakfast bar. When it is time to rest up for your next Deep Creek adventure, there is a bedroom with a king on this level. With access to the hall bath and a TV, it is your own private retreat when you need a little quiet time.

Upstairs, the sitting area in the loft doubles as sleeping area with a queen sleep sofa. A spacious primary suite with a king bed, TV, and private bath with an oversized jetted tub is also located on this floor. You can rest easy knowing that another great day at the lake awaits.

Head downstairs to rack 'em up for a friendly game of pool or watch your favorite movie by the fire in the family room. Step outside onto the patio to relax in the outdoor hot tub after a long day of hiking or skiing. It's a great spot for stargazing throughout the year and offers spectacular night views of the lighted ski slopes during the winter months. Two additional bedrooms, each with a queen, round out the sleeping quarters.

A grassy level lawn leads gives kids of all ages plenty of room to play within sight of grown-ups who are relaxing on the deck. Bring your boat to make good use of your private dock. Don't worry if you don't have one - you are within walking distance from local marinas where you can rent one during your stay. Favorite Deep Creek pastimes like swimming, fishing, kayaking or canoeing are yours to enjoy. If you have a larger group or a family reunion, you can also reserve Almost Paradise next door.

Located in the heart of Deep Creek Lake, you are within a five-minute drive (or less!) from Wisp Resort where you can experience a wide variety of year round activities. Some of the area's best restaurants and shops are also nearby. Drive a few minutes further to find state parks that offer everything from hiking trails and cross country skiing to guided nature walks and scenic waterfalls.

Sunny Boy offers the ideal location for the perfect vacation destination in any season. Pamper yourself and discover all the pleasures this mountain retreat has to offer!

For your convenience, this home offers free wifi.

The house has everything you can think of…lots of room. However, it’s totally outdated and dirty and it needs to be gutted. It smells, there were lots of flies, the carpet had stains all over it. The bathrooms were yucky as well. The shower doors didn’t slide, kept getting stuck, and they were dirty. The slider doors were all dirty, screens were broken. The beds were somewhat comfortable but SOOO loud with every movement. All of the beds in the house did it! The house is right on the main road and right next to a hotel. Definitely not a secluded location. You hear the cars in the house - the speed limit is 25, but people are definitely doing double that. House didn’t provide TP or hand soap- things that have been provided in all of the other houses we’ve rented. The property management company was great - they called to check on us and when we complained they sent someone out to try to clean a little more, which we really appreciated. The house is an A frame with great views of the lake, but the sun shines in the house ALL afternoon!! It turns the house into an oven…no matter how cold you set the AC. The top windows should be tinted. The lake is beautiful and HUGE. The house is on a little cove which is great so the kids could swim and kayak and paddle board. We rented water trampoline and the kids loved it. There is some lake grass in the water which was fine…the water is crystal clear!! Nice cool temps in august, warm enough for the water, and cool enough for camp fires

Terrible Customer Service - Must Read Fine Print
Terrible Customer Service - Must Read Fine Print
They show multiple pictures with their dock out in the water, but it was not available when we visited the location on 10/18/2020 weekend. When we called and asked about the dock, the management office told us that it's written in the contract ("fine print") that it's not guaranteed after labor day? We rented a boat for the weekend and were not able to use the dock. It would have been nice to know that the dock was not going to be available. The management was not willing to work with us and told me to call the marina to see if I could get a refund. Terrible customer service -- you could have worked with us to figure something out. We're definitely reasonable people, and I think a small gesture would have been sufficient. We will not be back to one of their properties. The sheets were not very clean - I think they were washed, but probably could use a refresh.

Convenient location.
Convenient location.
Overall convenient location on lake however house sits very close to the road which can be a concern with a dog. House was not overly clean when we arrived and looked like it had not been vacuumed. House is older but in decent shape. Furniture in family room only sits max of 5 which is a challenge for large group. Large kitchen table was accommodating. Kitchen was well stocked. Bedrooms and bathrooms were large but beds were very uncomfortable. There is no fire pit despite the large yard which would have been great during the cooler summer nights. Deck furniture was wrought iron with no cushions therefore no one sat on deck to enjoy the view as the furniture was too uncomfortable. Overall great location but small improvements as suggested are needed to make this worth the money and a better choice.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was great for our family trip to Deep Creek. We had plenty of towels for each person, and each bedroom and bathroom was nice and clean. The kitchen is well stocked, although the knives should be replaced because they are bent and/or getting dull. The house was really quiet too despite being close to a main road. I would suggest curtains or something to block out some sun on the main floor. Although it's definitely living up to its Sunny Boy name, sometimes the sunshine streaming in is a bit overwhelming for the AC. Part of the problem was that 2 of the 3 AC vents on the main floor were blocked by furniture. It was extremely useful having a laundry area with a washer and dryer, although the door to the closet was broken when we arrived. It was really nice to have some "oh we forgot items" such as dishwasher detergent, sponge, paper towels, toilet paper, and bathroom soaps already there when we arrived. The grocery store is so conveniently located to the house, literally a 2 minute drive. A few boat rental places nearby were great too. A convenient gas station was also nearby which made going home a bit easier since we didn't have to hunt around for a station. The house is 5-15 minutes away from all sorts of awesome places to visit including Lakeside creamery (amazing ice cream), Brenda's pizzeria, Simon Pearce Glass Factory, Oakland farmers market, Swallow Falls State Park, Deep Creek State Park, Herrington Manor, Firefly Farms, and others. Overall the house was great, would absolutely recommend to friends and family to enjoy a very reasonably priced but worthwhile home to rent on vacation.
