Christmas Vaca

The cabin is in a great location, convenient to eating and ski slopes. It took a little work with the fireplace to get the cabin warmed up even with all the heat on but once we warmed it up it was super cozy. Overall, we enjoyed our trip.

Birthday Celebration

Our stay at the Love Shack was amazing!!It was so cozy and comfortable. We enjoyed ourselves so much we added an extra day. The communication with Michelle was great. The cabin provided everything we needed in reference of cookware, utensils, seasonings etc. The decor was wonderful. We enjoyed the fireplace and the hot tub. Arrowhead was a small market which provided all our essentials. Honi Honi bar was very nice. The band played and the drinks were very strong. There was a Walmart, Dollar Tree and Flea Market close by.

Wonder Weekend Getaway

We had an amazing trip! The house was gorgeous—immaculately clean and incredibly cozy. We loved how conveniently close the property was to everything! Our favorite moments of the weekend included dinner at Uno's, a fun night out at the Honi Honi Bar, a delicious breakfast at Traders, and exploring the stunning sights at Deep Creek Lake and Swallow Falls State Park. We can't wait to return!

Relaxing Getaway

We stayed at the Love Shack for a few days between Christmas and New Years. The cabin was cozy and met all of our needs. We enjoyed the hot tub one evening of our stay and loved the fireplace over the chilly nights. Our teen daughter had a great time reading, writing, and hanging out in the loft. The property location was in close proximity to area attractions. We did find the small neighborhood and lack of side walks a little challenging with our dog, but nothing we could not work around. Overall, we enjoyed a relaxing stay. Many thanks to the host for the clear communication throughout our stay and for making the accommodation available

Love Shack Getaway

The cabin is absolutely perfect for a couple or a small family. We relaxed, hiked around the area, and kayaked on the lake. Everything is very clean and Michelle made the check-in and check-out process extremely easy. We highly recommend this cabin and plan to return!

Couldn't ask for a better cabin for a little get away. Lots to do. The cabin and property were in A+ condition. No problems communicating with the property owners. This was our 2nd time at this location. We will definitely be back.
