Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Please note: There is a 13 night limit on reservations per local regulations. Reservations over 13 nights are prohibited and cannot be honored.
Originally a farmhouse built in 1936, this beautiful home has an enormous backyard and plenty of room for activities. The beautiful stone fireplace, wet bar, and game table make the living room a wonderful place to gather and entertain in. The kitchen (complete with kitchen island) provides a seamless transition between cooking and hosting. Need a break from the action? A separate sitting room is at the opposite end of the first floor and even offers a workspace ideal for remote work. Upstairs, you'll find the majority of the bedrooms and the luxurious main bathroom, which features a jetted tub, double sinks, gas fireplace, and a private balcony. There is no shortage of outdoor spots to enjoy where you can grill on the large wrap-around deck or enjoy the front porch swing after a day of adventure on the lake or in the parks! Just sit back, relax, and gaze out to the seasonal mountain tree line.
The rural setting of this home is part of its charm as you can relax in quiet seclusion and still be less than two miles from all the action. Within minutes, you can be at the Wisp Ski Resort which offers year-round activities, and Lodestone and Fantasy Valley golf courses. Fantasy Valley was named one of the top 100 courses to play in the mid-Atlantic. Guests don't have to travel far to enjoy delicious local food from restaurants like Mountain State Brewing Co. and Moonshadow. Whether it’s hiking, kayaking, skiing, park exploration, golf, shopping, or any of the many other recreational activities the Deep Creek Lake area offers, you can easily access them and then return to the pastoral environment that surrounds this charming house.

The house was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The huge deck and private yard was nice for kids to play and run around. The No A/C wasn’t a problem the windows open and fans running really cooled it off at night. There were fans in every room. The large open living room and dining room was great for game nights. Location is close to everything!! I would definitely return.

Overall it was a great place to stay. The only issue was the door lock batteries died and we got locked out an hour before the I was suppose to be at the wedding. It took about a half hour for them to come fix the lock. Everything else was great.

Quaint and beautiful
Quaint and beautiful house with gorgeous views. The house was very clean and true to pictures. The only downfall, and I wouldn’t consider it really a downfall but they did not have basic seasonings to cook like salt and pepper. And the cable tv was spotty. But other than that beautiful house, perfect for a weekend getaway and close to the lake, Wisp and other activities. All within a 5 minute drive. Perfect!!!

Perfect Getaway
Absolutely loved our stay! It was a last minute getaway and had no trouble booking. The wrap around porch and balconies were awesome. The upstairs spa bathroom was amazingly beautiful and relaxing. The house was well stocked with dishes and cookware which made cooking a breeze. Would definitely book this place again. It was a perfect trip!

We shortened our stay because of weather, so we didn’t get a chance to fully enjoy the amenities. But what we got to do was great.

Excellent ski getaway
What a great place for a ski weekend! This house is super cozy with plenty of room, comfy beds, a huge bathroom including a steam shower, and a great location for skiing at Wisp only a couple of miles easy drive away.

Rented this property for a buddies bachelor party. A great amount of space for 7 guys. Had everything we needed including a ton of extra towels, TP, trash bags etc. The location is extremely close to everything and it's only about 5 min from wisp. 10/10 and would highly recommend and would definitely rent again.

This home was great for what it is.
Overall we were very happy with Amazing Grace. I do wish they had better cooking knives and it did not have big enough cooking pots. Plenty of silverware, china etc for our family. I might suggest a new stove since that one was a little jenky. I also wish the sauna in the upstairs bathoom had more specific instructions as they were burned out and we were unable to read them and I also wish you had told us to bring chairs for outdoor seating. Overall though our expereience was good.

Nice weekend
It was a beautiful house, great location, and view. Even though it did not have AC, it had plenty of fans. The beds were very comfortable too! Would stay here again.

Beautiful Setting
The view from the two decks is pastoral and beautiful. Much of the 1st floor interior and the upstairs spa room are done in natural wood. Both areas have beautiful doors which give an expansive view of the natural setting. Convenient to grocery shopping and family activities. About 15 minutes from swimming at the State Park. Enjoyed our stay very much.

Perfect for our girls’ trip
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Amazing Grace. The house is clean, spacious and comfortable. We liked the open floor plan on the main level where we could all comfortably gather, relax and cook. The large back yard makes the back porch very private and quiet. We ate several meals on the picnic table and spent time relaxing in the chairs on the porch. The beds and other furniture were comfortable too. We would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful property
Amazing Grace is a beautiful house bear Deep Creek. For us, it was a great location, close to the downtown region and restaurants and only about 10-15 minutes from the lake. The house itself was very clean, except the floors, which hadn’t been mopped at all, so my baby’s knees and hands were totally black with dirt after just a few minutes crawling around. But there was plenty of plates, cups and silverware, several oscillating fans in each bedroom (which helped, since it was hot and humid while we were there); the beds were very comfortable and the picnic table outside under the patio was perfect for eating dinner outside. Our kids enjoyed playing in the yard but would have enjoyed playing in the kiddie pool we brought if there had been a hose. If you come with kids, be sure to bring rubber bands or something to baby proof the cabinets under the sink if you don’t want them getting into cleaning supplies. The bathroom was amazing, although I would suggest curtains for the big windows so you can shower/bathe at night without the whole neighborhood seeing you naked!
Overall, the house was comfortable and very well appointed, and we’d love to come stay again.

Excellent Vacation Home
My family and I loved our stay at Amazing Grace!! First off, I love the name!! The home is beautiful, we love the layout inside as well as the spacious yard, huge wraparound deck and of course the GIANT bathroom with jacuzzi tub. It is also so close to everything, including the water falls. We had a wonderful time. My 5 year keeps asking, when are we going back to our vacation home? LOL, we will definitely be back next year. It's official, Amazing Grace has become our annual family vacation home.

Beautiful mountain getaway
We loved our time at Amazing Grace. From the cozy fireplace in the great room — the sun-drenched great room, come morning — to the ballroom sized bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub and magic shower, it’s a delightful home in the Maryland mountains for a weekend or a longer stay. Well-appointed, warm in the winter, and clean as a whistle, it’s suitable for families and groups of any kind.

This place was wonderful. I've stayed in a lot of vacation homes and this one was by far my favorite. This is one of those houses that makes you feel really thankful the owners are willing to share it with others. The house is quite spacious but still felt really cozy even with just two of us. The fireplace downstairs was super easy to use and was perfect for the cold nights we stayed up late playing games at the table. The back decks look out into empty land with only a few small houses sprinkled in the distance and a perfect view of the night sky. We saw the Milky Way and shooting stars! It felt really magical and private even with neighbors on one side and a church on the other. (The church isn't close, but I assumed I'd hear some activity over there on Sunday morning - however, I didn't hear anything. I never heard anyone else when we were there, so it was really quiet and relaxing.) The hot water in the tub in the upstairs bathroom seems to be capped at a temperature that was a bit too cold to use in chilly weather, (we realized that after filling up the tub,) but there is a fireplace right beside it that I'm sure would've helped if we had turned it on. The master bed was so, so comfortable, I slept better than I have in ages. We enjoyed it so much, we extended our stay. I hope to rent it again soon!
