About this property

So close to it all, yet just far enough away, Friday's Escape is a Deep Creek retreat that is perfect for all seasons.

Providing spacious accommodations for friends and family looking to spend quality time together, there is plenty of room to spread out in the large great room, which features a towering stone fireplace and floor to ceiling windows with beautiful lake views. When the fire is lit and everyone is gathered around enjoying each other's company, the warm ambiance of this mountain home really shines.

The home's well-equipped kitchen will delight the chef in your group. It features new appliances, two dishwashers, a wine fridge, 2 ovens and lots of counter-space. There is enough seating for everyone at the dining table and breakfast bar.

Offering you a private space to call your own, the main level primary suite is decorated with your comfort in mind. After a long day of adventure, you can soak away your worries in the primary bath's jetted tub.

Head to the upper level for a friendly game of pool or to watch a little TV in the loft when you want to have a fun evening in. You'll find ample room for cozying up and sleeping in either of the two suites located on this floor. Each has a TV and views of the lake - creature comforts that you'll appreciate after an active day on the mountainside.

Downstairs, you can kick-back in the family room and get lost in a good movie or catch up on your favorite shows TV with a cozy fire in the background. Two lake front bedrooms, each with two double beds, offer beautiful views that will greet you each morning. A primary suite and another bedroom round out the sleeping quarters on this level.

Outdoor living is at its best on the wrap-around deck! Sip your morning coffee on a crisp fall morning with autumn colors surrounding you or host an afternoon BBQ on a sunny, summer day. Each night, you can watch the sunset as you soak in the seven-person hot tub. Stroll through the trees and down the stairs (75+ stairs) to find your private dock where on-the-water fun begins! Bring your boat or rent one at a local marina to spend days exploring quiet coves. When you return, you can cool off with a swim or cast your line to try your luck at fishing.

A ten-minute drive will take you to popular activities and attractions. Wisp Resort offers exciting adventures throughout the year. When the snowflakes fall, you can ski, snow tube, or ice skate. During the rest of the year, try a ride on the mountain coaster, zipline down the mountain or take a guided Segway tour. Favorite restaurants, mini-golf, and nightlife are also nearby.

No trip to the lake would be complete without visiting our State Parks. Each one offers unique experiences. Hike to majestic waterfalls, canoe on a pristine lake or mountain bike miles of trails.

Suitable for fun-loving families, adventurers and dreamers, Friday's Escape has been carefully crafted to make your Deep Creek Lake vacation a truly unforgettable experience!

For your convenience, this home offers free wifi. Please note that this home has exterior security cameras.

Quiet Getaway

We had a quiet and wonderful long weekend. Unfortunately the weather did not permit skiing...hopefully next year if we go earlier in the season. The house is comfortable and in a nice neighborhood for walks. We will definitely return.

Great, but beware of icy driveway

The house is gorgeous. It had everything we needed for a nice weekend getaway. It was clean, comfortable, and cozy. Perfectly situated right on the lake. We had a wonderful weekend overall. The only issue was leaving. The driveway is very long (maybe about 200-300 feet) and rather steep. We went on a weekend with heavy ice and getting out was an absolute nightmare. Even having vehicles with four wheel drive, we had to chip the ice away on the entire driveway with a metal shovel and then push all five of our vehicles up the driveway to get out. All told it took us about 4 hours to get out. Triple A would not come out to tow us as they said it would endanger their employees. The listing mentioned there was salt in the house which we searched high and low for but could not find. Again the house is wonderful and this issue aside I would have rated things excellent - but this is an issue that people should be aware of when renting in the winter, especially if you are not as fortunate to have individuals who are willing or able to push multiple vehicles up hill to get home.

Needs some TLC

I wanted to reach out to you to let you know that we were very unhappy with the condition of this property. We checked in on Saturday evening and then touched base with the office that Monday to let the office know about the issues. This house has so much potential and I’m sure was once beautiful but it has to be maintained. 1. The over all outside maintenance of the property is poor. Deck has splitting wood and nails sticking up, the deck rail posts are rotted in many areas, the steps to the dock dangerous and rotting on certain steps, one step was missing completely at the Botton to the dock, The fire pit and canoe were filled with water. It had not rained and seemed to be there awhile stagnet water. The pictures of the outside from the back is when the deck was new. It’s really false advertising. The maintenance man did come and address the worst of the steps for safely but more needs to be fixed. You also need a picture from the dock to the house so people renting know how steep it is. 2. The comforters need to be cleaned they have stains on them pics sent 3. The living room area was so dirty. There was broken glass and food underneath the couches, crumbs and dog hair all over the throw rugs and floors. The furniture is put on slides so it can be moved for cleaning. The house needs a good deep clean. The furniture in the bedrooms need to be moved as well to be cleaned. Dust and cobwebs and food behind the bedside tables when you go to plug in charges. Just gross and embarrassing having our guests see this. 4. The carpets on the steps going downstairs were down right filthy and stained. Didn’t even want to walk barefoot on them. They need to be professionally cleaned. ( pics to follow) We were embarrassed to have our friends see this. They did spot clean but the stains came right back to the surface after a few days. 5. They seriously need new pots and pans. The Teflon is all peeled off on most of the pots and pans. Not really safe to cook using those. 6. The one dishwasher had a note on it when we got there that it was broken. Thankfully there was two but still. The microwave front plate was coming off. We kept having to push it back on. 7. Mattresses are in need of replacement . 8. Toilet in the downstairs bedroom where the hot tub is loose no screws holding it to the floor and the soap dispenser was broken too. The owner of the property needs to be notified of these issues

Lovely home!

We had a wonderful time in this house. One nice feature is that each of the 3 levels has an activity/seating/gathering area plus two decks. It is large and open and had plenty of space to make our 3-generation group of 13 (adults and teen kids) happy. The kitchen has everything needed for food preparation. The house is lovely, however the pictures do not truly show how far up from the lake it sits. Many steps to the dock area that made it impossible for one of us to be able to get to the lake. We did have a great time in the house and would recommend it for groups sturdy/young enough to not be bothered by stairs.
