We loved our New Years weekend in Deep Creek - even through the rainy weather. Rock Haul was big enough for everyone to have a bedroom but laid out so that we felt cozy hanging out at the fire pit, playing cards, sharing a meal. There are many nearby state parks and everyone had the same idea to take a walk outside. The parks were jammed thanks to warm weather. But even with the crowds in the park, the house is situated in the quiet of the woods and overlooks the calm lake. The peacefulness was well worth it. Hope to return!!

John was a terrific host, who was easy to communicate with and provided clear instructions on finding and staying in the property. The house was clean and met our needs well. Great location at Deep Creek.

Beautiful large home. Great porch with lake views. Comfortable beds, clean, lovely communal areas. Only drawbacks are one bath on each floor and lots of stairs. We loved it and hope to go back.

The house was spacious and let the family spread out and enjoy the room. We enjoyed the mountains air.

The property had everything we needed for our stay. While the house itself is not up-to-date, it had all we needed and was reasonable given the price. We took our boat, so the easy access to it at the dock was awesome!

My family ( grandparents, uncles, aunts, and kid cousins) had a blast! We spent most days at the dock and on our boat ( we brought a family boat) and we spent the evenings either playing games or by the campfire. We went to swallow falls one day as well. Great, simple getaway.

We had a very good time and settled in easily. The property is surrounded by beautiful trees and we had great walks.

Our family had a great time at Rock Haul. We had plenty of room, loved the deck overlooking the lake, and our nights by the fire pit. We look forward to returning some day.

This home was perfect for our short get way for our family. The house was clean, spacious and provided us with basic amenities that we forgot to bring. They had movies and games for us to use and the beautiful view of lake was gorgeous. If we ever come back to deep creek again, this will be the home we choose.

I loved this house. 2 couples plus 1 stayed and it was very cozy. We liked the house layout and it had all the necessities. My husband and I stay in Deep Creek 2-3 times a year and rarely stay at the same house, but we all agreed we would stay here again!

My friends and I enjoyed this property. Lots of room. Plenty of bedrooms. It’s a great place to stay. We will stay again if in that area.

Rock Haul was a great place. The house is wonderful and the location is superb. There are many dishes, serving pieces, and pots and pans. The dining room table was big so we could all fit there. Overall, we all had a happy Thanksgiving at Rock Haul.

Great place had a Wonderful family weekend!!

It's a very comfortable house where the 2 families had enough space for all. We had bad weather and had to stay in the house more than planed and the house handled it very well!

The home is older but is well maintained. There are 3 floors with bedrooms on top and bottom. The porch is fabulous. The kitchen and dining area was good for cooking and eating. Outdoor fire pit was a bonus.

We didn't realize main floor had no bedrooms. House is good size but needs updating.

we will back for winter vacation .

What a lovely relaxed feel in this spacious, unpretentious home! We so enjoyed the opportunity to relax on the outdoor porch and the hear the sound of birdsong, which carried on from early morning until dark. The use of the reserved dock allowed us to use our kayaks with ease. We found several places in the neighborhood for safe and pleasant walks with our dog, and she enjoyed the spaciousness and comfort of this home as much as we did. We definitely plan to come back.

House was in great condition, perfect for a big group. Beautiful scenery, and clear/easy communication with owner. Definitely recommend.

The house is older but vet roomy. Very well organized and well stocked. Very cleam

This house was perfect for our family. They also allowed us to bring our dogs. It was a short walk for our kids to swim off the dock and for our dogs to go swimming as well. It was fully equipped with everything to meet our needs. We look forward to spending another week next year at this property.

We did not stay at North Glades. We stayed at their other location, Rock Haul. Overall we had a nice stay. The house had a lot of mosquitoes inside before we got there. The basement was extremely damp. We had the dehumidifier running the whole time with a floor fan and by the 6 th night it was better. Our kids clothes were damp from being downstairs and the bed sheets were so damp they couldn’t sleep on the beds. The owners installed a new dehumidifier on our last night. It would also be nice to have scissors and pot holders that are useful. Simple amenities could be updated. There is not much of a lake view when the trees are blooming. There are ALOT of steps in this house so I would not recommend it for elderly people.

My extended family were very comfortable in this house with bedrooms for everyone and a large dining room. The kitchen had all the appliances and cooking equipment we needed and there were fans for each window. The two bedrooms upstairs with A/C window units kept the upstairs cool as long as the bedroom doors were kept open. the owners provided a pass for Deep Creek State Park which had a great beach. We also enjoying very much walking to and swimming in the Swallow Falls which was a short drive away. My family had a great time - swimming, playing board games, watching fireworks, and roasting marshmallows!

Our extended family had a good time and was comfortable in this house. There is lots of room and the kitchen is pretty well equipped. We enjoyed swimming off the dock, and spent a night around the fire ring.

Nice place, great location. Clearly an old home but well equipped and nice atmosphere. Only real issue was a slight smokey smell in the lower level due to the wood stove and spotty WiFi availability. Overall would book again quickly.

The good part: we liked the view and location of this house. It was a good size for our group. It allowed my well behaved dog. Great rental price. The not-so-good part: ants in the kitchen and bedrooms, spiders in the basement. Basement fireplace smelled bad - initially we thought it is a smoker's house. One coffee filter was not cleaned in weeks because it had mold to the edge of the filter cup. Some alarm got on in the basement in the middle of the night and was turned off next day by the maintenance people, after we called. Sorry, I hate to leave bad reviews, but I think the owners should be aware that the house needs better cleaning and bug control.

Rock Haul was the perfect place for our family to come together to share an early celebration of Christmas. Six bedrooms and three baths were ideal for our situation. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. No one was concerned about being the last one to shower because there was always plenty of hot water. We awoke Saturday morning to an ice covered world. No one cared. In fact, we all enjoyed having breakfast while admiring the beauty of the trees and speculating on whether or not the ice fishermen on the lake really knew what they were doing. A wide variety of board games and DVD's, not to mention cable TV gave all of us entertainment options. We ate all our meals at Rock Haul. A well stocked, large kitchen made meal preparation easy. We also appreciated the fact that all eleven of us could sit comfortably around the dining room table. If busy work and school schedules can be coordinated in 2017, we all voted to return to Rock Haul. We had a wonderful time!!!

Loved this place for our group of two couples, one mother with a baby, and a grandmother with three school age grandchildren. The ground floor apartment with two bedrooms, bath, and family room provided separate sound-proof quarters for the grandmother and school age kids, and the adults and baby were undisturbed on the top floor. There is direct access to the dock, where the kids had a great time playing (with adult supervision). The kitchen is big and well furnished, and the fire pit area was a hit. It's reasonably close to the beach at Deep Creek state park. There aren't other activities for kids close by. For boaters, it would be ideal.

The Joyce home at Rock Hall met the needs of my family for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. The house is well maintained and comfortable. John Joyce is very easy to deal with. We used the MD State Park pass to visit Swallow Falls and Deep Creek Lake State Parks. I launched our boat at Deep Creek Lake SP, which is a short ride from the house. The boat dock at the house is convenient and equipped with a ladder for swimming in the lake. The cove area is great for kayaking as well. We golfed at nearby Fantasy Valley at WISP, checked out the man-made whitewater course at the top of the mountain, attended the Garrett County Fair which happened to be that week. And of course we spent much time exploring the lake. An enjoyable time, enhanced by the comfortable home.

Our family of 9 stayed here in May of 2016. We found it clean and well-maintained. The weather was chillier than we hoped as there were light snow showers on 2 different days. There was plenty of seating around the dining room table for all of us. In fact, we didn't understand why there were so many dining room type chairs throughout the house to the point that it felt crowded. The arrangement of the living room was not conducive for conversations with the whole family but for the week we rearranged the furniture to suit our needs. We really enjoyed driving to Swallow Falls State Park and hiking the trails to see several different waterfalls. If you love ice cream, be sure to visit either Lakeside Creamery for quality hard serve or Saffitickers south of Oakland on Garrett Highway for inexpensive soft serve treats.

The Rock Haul home was awesome! It was a great location with a beautiful view of the lake. Great for watching sunrises. The house was fully equipped with everything you needed: kitchen appliances, plenty of pots and pans, wifi, cable & dvds player, games, a balcony with furniture, and a fire pit. Overall, my family had a great time and we'd love to stay here again!
