Great Little Spot in Deep Creek

The house was nice. The sofa is about worn out. The hot tub cover is broken. I think for the price per night there should be more cable channels. We did enjoy our stay.

Great Place for a Weekend Getaway!
My wife and I stayed here to celebrate our 30th anniversary. The Love Shack was absolutely adorable with lots of rustic charm and it was very convenient to many things in the Deep Creek area. We hiked/biked two state parks and did some of the summer activities Wisp resort offered. There were several restaurants to choose from within a couple miles and we had some great dinners overlooking the lake. The home was perfect for our needs. We found the kitchen to be well stocked for preparing breakfast and lunch. It was very clean when we arrived. And, we enjoyed the hot tub after hiking. All is all, my wife and I had a great time and would stay here again if we come back to the Deep Creek area.

Loved the Love Shack
My family (me 45, wife 43, daughter 12, son 8) fit perfectly in the cozy confines of the cabin. It was easy to get to and a reasonable drive to everywhere we wanted to visit. We love the area and this time we tried horseback riding. We also went to Swallow Falls twice in our 4 day stay. Hot tub is a nice perk too. We had most of our meals outside on the front porch, so all 4 of us could sit at a table together. Very reasonably priced too. The hosts were very helpful and communicative. We would go here again.

Cozy Cabin
The cabin was very cozy and decorated very tastefully. The weather was cool while we were there so the hot tub, wood burning fireplace came in handy, and I enjoyed the gas firepit on the adorable front porch. The owners were pleasant to work with. The cabin had everything we needed to stay-in if we wanted and very close to some of the activities we planned as well as a bike ride away to some fun places/bars/restaurants. I loved that it was called the "Love Shack" but it's loft area makes it perfect for familes too!

Lovely!
Really great little boutique cabin in a stunning forested location! Only reason I gave 4 stars is because we Couldn’t use the Jacuzzi or the air conditioner or the barbecue, because the little patio deck that everything was on had a lot of mold-So turning on the AC would bring it into the house and being out on that little patio is impossible if you’re sensitive to mold. Also, the barbecue is on the same little patio.

The Love Shack is perfect for a couple or a small family. It was clean and well maintained. The hot tub was very relaxing. We liked that all the appliances and equipment worked perfectly.

Easter getaway
The cabin was perfect for my little family! I brought my 2 kids 11/12 here for an Easter getaway and we absolutely loved it!! Will definitely be coming back up before school starts up in the fall! The whole area is stunning and the setting for the cabin is very safe for bike riding and evening walks. This was my first time using vrbo but Michelle explained it all step for step and was very kind and easy to work with! Great hosts very accommodating!!

Misleading pictures
Living room furniture very uncomfortable and worn. Mold on outside deck. Cobwebs, dirty floors (Doritos under sofa), ladder climb impossible for anyone over 30, unsafe, very steep. Not handicap accessible, bathroom door not wide enough for walker. Owner was very belligerent. Didn't want to hear my assessment. She would stay there.

Snowed in at the cutest cabin ever!
We stayed at the Love Shack a few weeks ago during a winter weather advisory. We didn’t think it would impact our plans to visit different hot spots in deep creek because deep creek always get snow! Well, it was a lot of snow and winds so it just mad sense to hunker down especially since we had our two young daughters with us. The cabin was cute, clean, cozy, just PERFECT!!! We had a fire going throughout the weekend which just created such an ambience. We packed plenty of food and just kept cooking and baking. Our girls just loved relaxing and playing in the snow! The hot tub was wonderful! It was a perfect retreat for our very busy family. We needed this weekend so bad!

Love Shack
We have been going up to Deep Creek Lake every January for the last five years. The Love Shack is the best cabin we have stayed in. The kitchen and bathroom look like they have been recently renovated. Very clean and updated. The fireplace and leather couch made the living room very comfortable. The hot tub was perfect after snow tubing in cold and windy weather. The loft area was great also. We had a great weekend.

The perfect local getaway
What a great experience! My lady and I brought in the new year here and we couldn’t be happier with how things turned out. It started snowing on our way into town so we had the perfect excuse stay in and enjoy the space. The cabin seems simple and quaint from the outside, but the inside is nicely renovated and well-kept, complete with modern appliances and sleek fixtures. Kudos to the hosts for keeping the space updated/maintained. To bring in 2024 here was special and something that we'll never forget. We look forward to visiting this part of MD again in the near future.
