About This Home

Deep Creek Lake Log Retreat with Panoramic Lake & Mountain Views!
Experience the ultimate Deep Creek Lake getaway in this 5 bedroom stunning vacation-style log home, where rustic charm meets modern comfort. Perched to capture expansive lake and mountain views, this spacious retreat offers three finished levels designed for relaxation, entertaining, and unforgettable gatherings.
The main level welcomes you with a dramatic family room featuring a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, soaring ceilings, and an abundance of windows that frame breathtaking lake views. The gourmet kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with stainless steel appliances and upgraded countertops, flowing seamlessly into the dining area that opens onto a large deck—perfect for enjoying morning coffee or evening sunsets over the water. The primary suite also captures beautiful lake views and includes a luxurious private bath with a sauna, soaking jetted tub, tiled shower, and bidet.
The lower level is designed for entertainment and relaxation, featuring a spacious recreation area with a pool table, bar area, double-sided stone fireplace, comfortable TV lounge sitting area, and a second, larger sauna.. Two oversized bedrooms and a full bath provide additional sleeping space for guests. Step outside to enjoy the private outdoor oasis, complete with a hot tub with speakers/music, paver patio, and a large fire pit area ideal for gathering under the stars. Upstairs, the upper level loft overlooks the main living space and leads to two additional bedrooms and a full bath, offering ample room for family and guests.
The garage includes a convenient covered walkway to the home and an oversized owner’s storage area with private lockers and a refrigerator/freezer—perfect for managing a vacation property. Both the house and garage feature newer roofs with 25-year guarantees, adding peace of mind.
Located in the desirable Waterfront Greens community, owners and guests enjoy lake access with swimming, canoe and kayak racks, lakeside seating, private walking roads, a par-3 golf course, tennis courts, clubhouse, and new pickleball courts! Strong rental history due to proximity to a nearby wedding venue that frequently refers guests for overnight accommodations.
With its prime location, exceptional amenities, and proven track record as a high-producing vacation rental, this Deep Creek Lake retreat offers the perfect blend of investment potential and mountain-lake lifestyle.
