Very spacious for all 17 of us. Loved the kitchen 2 frig. 2 sinks. and 2 dishwashers which we definitely needed. Everyone had a great time and Having a private boat dock was definitely a plus. We will be planning on returning to Deep Creek!

Excellent rental, would stay again.
Plenty of space and perfectly layed out for a large group like ours. Loved the fireplace and the fact that wood was provided. A few negative points would be that showers were very poor wouldn’t take much to update them and since a strong reason for choosing this home was because we are all ping pong players, we were disappointed to find the ping pong table outside covered in snow and warped.
Also this property was listed with Railey mountain rentals and they did not plow all of the parking areas supplied to this home to allow for 7 cars to park. With its steep driveway out and the snow we got, it was not optimal to park all cars down by the home. We spoke with Railey maintenance and they were suppose to come take care of it but never did.

We loved our stay at Alpine Dreaming. We had 16 people sleeping comfortably with plenty of room to all eat and hang out together. We loved the spacious dock and the fire pit. Keep in mind that the walk back up to the house from the dock is not for the faint of heart!

5 Stars
The house has great amenities, awesome view of the lake from the fire pit/dock area, and the location was close to most places of interest. It was clean and perfectly sized for a group of 13 of us who all had separate beds with the rollaway beds and blow up mattresses. We also liked that the dining room table as well as the deck tables provided plenty of seating for us all. Overall great experience.
