This property is so cozy and welcoming. It has tons of space and plenty of room for everyone to hang out. The hot tub is so relaxing and you can see Wisp across the street. We enjoyed playing games and the extensive library that the house has. It’s close to everything which is also great. I highly recommend this property.

Just Right

The property was exactly what we were looking for. Plenty of room to spread out, fire place, board games, hot tub. Was very private in the woods however was literally a minute from the shops and lifts.

Away from water

House is in a secluded location with no view of the water, but it is near a lot of things.

Good location, room for improvement

Convenient location, clean house, private location. Though, something is going on with the water. The water pressure on the showers “pulsed” from high to low pressure consistently. The hallway shower water was also very high in metal. Could smell/taste it

Quiet but outdated

Quiet home, but very outdated. Furnishings are uncomfortable and beds are way too old, as well as their bedding. Screens are broken in the front door and no central a/c.

Cozy cabin

The cabin was clean and there was room to spread out. We felt like we were away from town while still being near by. We plan to book there again.

Great little house, good location

House was so clean. I agree with the other reviews it needs some updating. No much silverware but we made it work. Beds were comfy and if there could be a bathroom upstairs it would be over the top great!!

Quaint and Cozy

We are a family of 4 with two kids under 3. We stayed for an extended weekend and this was a perfect place for us. The layout is very open, everything was very clean, and exactly as described. In addition, the power went out briefly and Vacasa was extremely responsive in addressing the outage even though it was an issue in the area and not specific to the property. We would definitely stay again during future trips to the area.

This home is close to everything right off Garrett Highway, but feels secluded and hidden away in the beautiful woods. Quiet and relaxing. Impeccably clean and comfortable!

Always a good home for Deep Creek

I've stayed at Life's A Bear several times over the last 13 years and it has always been a good home to rent. The house is dated, but it's solid and the location is great. The hot tub (same hot tub for 13 years now) and rear deck could use some updating (some boards are very weak), but again the house is solid and the location is great.
