We had a fantastic stay. Easy check-in, and check out.“Blue with a View” is a beautiful home with everything there that we needed. We rented a boat during our stay, and the dock is just a short walk down the hill. The channel and which the dock is on is perfect for relaxing and swimming.As for the amenities, the owner thought of just about everything that you would need. Absolutely would recommend this location to others and would 100% consider coming again.

Incredible Family Retreat

The long weekend trip was thoroughly enjoyed by all. It provided winter wonderland experiences with much laughter. The snowstorm on Sunday was magical and the home provided warm and cherished family memories. The house was beautiful.

Blue with a View is a beautiful home with everything that we needed. The view of the lake is fantastic, and the use of the dock for our rental boat was very convenient. We enjoyed tubing, sight-seeing, hiking, using the hot tub and just sitting around the fire pit. this was our family's first visit to Deep Creek. I am sure that we will be back!

Birthday at blue with a view

This was a tremendous house. A little hiccup checking in butvthatvwas quickly resolved. 6 of us stayed very comfortably. Access to the lake with a slip is a definite selling point. I would look again for this house when I book next year's trip

Top location for boating to on water restaurants

Location of this place was excellent for boating activities. The dock across the street was super close to the home and all the on water restaurants were a very short boat ride away. If you’re in Deep Creek to boat, this is the place to book. Red Barn the property managers also were great communicators ahead of our stay. We even were able to arrange late checkout to extend our trip.

Family Thanksgiving

We celebrated an early Thanksgiving here and the house was perfect for it. The kitchen was extremely well equipped for our feast. While we were there it snowed nearly a foot and we were very impressed with the snow plowing effort that kept the roads clear and easy to use. And the hot tub was key to a great snowy weekend. Highly recommend this pretty place.

The house was beautiful as advertised. The living room and bedrooms were large and clean, and the kitchen was completely stocked with lots of necessities. The fire pit and hot tub were very nice too. The house is nestled on the hill in the woods, and very very quiet. We saw several deer over our week stay. There’s a nice view of the water from the deck, and the dock is just down the hill. The street in front is very quiet as well, and barely anyone drives on it during the week. We highly recommend!

The listing does not clearly define the number of steps between driveway a front door. Lower level smells of mildew/mold. Bad for family members with asthma. Bed frames made of fabric have thick coat of dust on the top of headboard. Bad for family members with dust sensitivity.

The house was gorgeous. The property manager company Red Barn Vacations was NOT.A pet worker had clearly occupied rhbwinit extensively prior to my group as the space had not been cleaned thoroughly if at all.As a result my group and were inundated with animal bar on limes, couches, fabric head, baseboards, end tables coated windiest, dust tray in the dryer (after we washed everything), vacuum cleaner receptacles (after we swept and vacuumed everything).It was a 4 day sta and I advised Lori of red barn after day 1 and she was as nor proactive.After I insisted she send someone she advised that she would/did but no one ever showed.One of my guests left early owing to her challenges. It was a beautiful space, but very poorly maintained and managed.

The house is beautiful and the kitchen is well appointed. Check-in wasn't smooth as the door code was not sent to us initially, and then when we arrived, we were trying to access the house from what we learned was the back door, as the front door is on the side of the house facing away from the lake. The code did not work for that door even though it also had a keypad lock. The view of the lake was mostly obscured by trees. Our biggest issue was this house has a LOT of stairs to get to the main level, and some of the stairs, such as the stair going to the front door, are much higher than normal stairs. There is no way they are to code. I would not recommend this house for anybody who has any amount of limited mobility.

Great location!

We had a wonderful stay at Blue with a View. The house was a perfect size for our party of four adults, two kids, and two dogs. Proximity to WISP was perfect for our long weekend of skiing. Less than a five minute drive, making it just far enough away to skip any hustle and bustle and be able to truly enjoy the terrific views of the lake and surrounding area…while still being super convenient to get to the slopes, the ski rental options, other shopping and dining, etc. The house itself was very bright and very clean and maybe one of the best appointed homes we have ever stayed at in the Deep Creek area. We could always find absolutely everything we could possibly need in the kitchen, and we loved the fact that the linens and towels in the home were a clear upgrade from the average ones you find at most places. Keep in mind, the driveway is very steep and not for the faint of heart. You'll probably be loading and unloading for your stay a few feet farther from the home on the access road. All in all a terrific weekend away. Thanks Blue with a View! And thanks to Red Barn as well for the very friendly and responsive customer service!
