I booked a cabin for Valentine’s Day weekend and was surprised at how affordable these were! Our stay even came with a lift ticket, which would have normally cost me $ 80 due to the holiday weekend. From the beginning, LaDonna was extremely helpful and professional while I was booking my stay. I called and emailed her several times, making sure this would be the perfect getaway weekend, since Valentine’s Day is also my boyfriend’s birthday. LaDonna was extremely accommodating as well, giving us an early check-in and late check-out. When we had a misunderstanding on Sunday about the pass that came with our stay, she refunded 2 lift tickets I had bought from her the day before(if they have extra lift tickets, you might be able to purchase them for $ 25 each). We stayed in 40R, which had a nice view of the mountain from the hot tub. The cabin was clean upon arrival, and very spacious. The beds were EXTREMELY comfortable, but if you like soft sheets — I suggest bringing your own! The kitchenette has a microwave, fridge, freezer, sink, and all the dishes/silverware you will need. There was even a kitchen table. Unless you have AT&T you won’t have service in the entire Wisp area and wifi was a little spotty in the cabin. So for all you cell phone obsessed people, you might want to bring a hotspot =) We went to Dutches for dinner, which I do not recommend! It was much too expensive for mediocre food(review coming). Overall, we had a great time and very much enjoyed the Lodges at Sunset Village, we will definitely be back!

We’ve stayed here two times, both stays over the past two Thanksgivings. I love the new website and the ability to choose my cabin when I book, and the fact that they are pet friendly without charging exorbitant pet fees(only $ 50 per dog for their entire stay) is one of the number one sellers for me. I was a girl scout for 11 years, so I know how to camp, but these days I really appreciate the«luxuries» of these cabins. So nice to have a full sized fridge and microwave and a fireplace. They often have deals– last year we were able to stay for buy one night get the second half off, and this year it was buy 2 nights, get 1 night free. Hot tubs are an added bonus. LaDonna and Christie are both very nice and helpful. We will definitely visit again.

This place is a very nice little cabin up in the Maryland Mountains. It’s close to Deep Creek lake which is only 2 miles away. We arrived at 4 pm which is after hours i guess even though check in is at 3. It’s kind of dead during the fall because the lakes aren’t open and there isn’t enough snow to go sledding but we made the best of our trip. The log cabins are like hotel rooms but with a log cabin design to them. They are very well maintained with lovely amenities. We had an electric fireplace, full size fridge, deep sink, dishes, king size bed and a sitting room. We had two 30in TVs’s one in the sitting room and one in the bedroom. The bedroom and sitting area are separated by a wall but the top part is open to allow heat to pass through since the heater is located in the sitting area. The fireplace has a 60 minute timer so it can’t stay on all night. They had a nice sized bathroom. Not too big but the sink sat on top of the coutertop and had a bark design on the outside. A large toilet in case you got a big butt and the shower was nice and spacious. One of the best showers I’ve had in a mwhile on vacation. It was so relaxing. the best part about this cabin was the high ceiling. They were at least 20 ft and there was a large ceiling fan to blow down some of that heat to keep you warm. I also like that the Tv’s were in different areas even though you can still hear both while they are on, it wasn’t hard to separate the sound. There is a small patio just outside the sitting room that has a sliding door to get to it and a few steps beneath the patio is a lower deck that people from different cabins can gather at around a fire place. I thought it was very clever to have the outdoor firepit. They also had a grill in case you wanted to cook your own foods. One guy was using it to cook bacon and steaks when we stayed. The only downside to the cabin is that it’s one house that’s split in half. So you get one side of the cabin and behind the wall is another couple or group that has the same room. The wall they built between the rooms isn’t very sound proof. Plus the floor you walk on is very hollow as well so it almost sounds like your stomping when you walk. It was 9AM and i could here our neighbors having a full blown conversation. Maybe because they were close to the wall but I could here everything they were saying. Lucky for us they were checking out that morning because we ended up having the cabin to ourselves and it was much quieter. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Ladonna gave me directions for the town and suggested activities for us to do there. She also stated that next time we come if the guest are too loud we can simply have our room changed. I though that was a great help for us. Other than the noisy guest we pretty much enjoyed ourselves. Note: Bring all your own personal items like soap, toothpaste, lotions and napkins. They have towels and washclothes but no soap or lotion like some places.

Found this Deep Creek gem as a Groupon Getaway $ 329 for 2 nights. This is a great deal! We landed a cabin that had the cabin look, but with modern appliances. You are by no means«roughing it» with this place. Think of it as a nice hotel room but with a log cabin feel to it. We had a full size fridge, small dining area, 2 sets of bunk beds and a King Size bed. All the makings for a great party cabin! For maximizing the amount of people in the cabin, you could fit 4 in the King and then 4 in the bunk beds for a total of 8 comfortably. The balcony had a great view of the lake and there are fire pits outside for the guests to use. It was a bit Chilly when we went so we stayed in and cozied up next to the electric fireplace. This place was the perfect little cabin for a weekend getaway. It definitely made for a very relaxing weekend! Everything in here was pretty much brand new. The dishes, furniture and even the toilets! You won’t be disappointed in the accommodations. These little cabins are in the heart of the Deep Creek Area so if you stay here, you are only minutes away from the Lake and all the shopping in the area. Wifi is also included for those of you that can’t unplug.
