Deep Creek Lake in Garrett County is simply one of the most unique places in Maryland. These photos taken by my real estate partner, Sam Hously, reflect some of natures beauty, that is offered here. If you live in the Northern Virginia, D.C. area, Deep Creek Lake is approximately a 3 hour drive. If you have a Porsche, it is about 2 1/2 hours!!! This is a 4 season resort community with second home sales and purchases driving our real estate market. Our current real estate market remains healthy with many opportunities for buyers. Come and explore!

If you are planning a trip to Deep Creek Lake and need a place to stay, we highly recommend Silver Tree Suites. Sam Housely, my real estate partner is one of the developers for this project. Silver Tree Suites sits on the water's edge of Deep Creek Lake. All the rooms are professionally decorated, thanks to Sam's wife, Ellen Housley. There is an onsite Fitness Center, Conference Rooms, Coffee Shop, Restaurant (closed till May) and Marina. This facility is close to the Wisp Ski Resort and all the lake activities. If you would like us to make reservations for you or would like more information, give us a call. It is part of our concierge service that we have offered since 2007. Better yet, send us a business card and we will put you in our Easter drawing for a free nights stay, in one of our developer units.

Mountain Coaster at Deep Creek Lake is a blast!!

If you have not been to Deep Creek Lake recently, you are missing some pretty cool stuff! Take for instant the Mountain Coaster, which is open all year round, weather permitting. I don't like Roller Coasters but was challanged by my family and friends to ride this. I have to tell you that I embarressed myself and all around me, as I screamed all the way down," I am never going to do this again", "Oh my God"! Now there are breaks you can use to slow down, but my thinking was, without using the breaks, I would get down sooner!! Not only did I laugh and scream my head off, I had a blast!

No, that is not me, but my friend Laureen, in the top photo.

A weekend of Snow in Garrett County, Deep Creek Lake

There are some days that I wake up in Garrett County, Deep Creek Lake, and it simply takes my breath away. It is snowing now as I write this. I have so much work to do this weekend and all I really want to do is get a throw blanket, put on a fire and curl up to a good book, with a cup of hot coco. It is amazing all the triggers that snow tends to bring! If you are traveling to Garrett County, we are used to the snow and our roads are usually in good shape. It is only the ice storms that seems to slow us down. I hope you will come and visit and take a little time to slow down and enjoy!

Our buyer resort seminars are getting started again. They have been very popular and we even closed some buyers, who found the seminar very helpful. The seminar is an hour and we touch base on the different types of properties here at the lake, the real estate market and a brief history of the lake. We talk about the Wisp Ski Resort and its expansion. We cover subjects such as do you buy property to rent or do you just use the property for our own personal use. You can email us directly or sign up for the seminar on our newest web site, www.DeepCreekLake360.com. Go to the Consierge page and find lots of other items of value. We also offer a tour of Deep Creek Lake and discount lodging.
