Deep Creek Lake

Reviewed By msg08701

Awesome lake and accommodations. Great to boat on and jump in the water for a fresh swim. We rent vacation homes and never had a problem with any of them. I've been going there for many years and will be going back for more.

Deep Creek Lake State Park

A great spot for water skiing, boating, hiking and swimming.

Reviewed By tauduong - Lorton, United States

It was 10 of us decided to discover the Deep Creek State Park while appreciating falls foliage. The route driving inside the park with tree and foliages on both sides, we couldn’t help but to stop in the middle of the route for some photo shoots. A place to remember. Definitely will consider to visit this state park again.

Adventure Sports Center International

Reviewed By 536lisar - Bethesda, United States

We (mom and two teens) had loads of fun white water rafting here. I wasn't sure what to expect with a man-made course where you repeat the same course, but it was great fun. It seems that the rapids were changed up each time and our guide would also change up what we did so it didn't seem like we were doing the same course over and over (about 7 times in total). Weather wasn't very good when we were there so we were glad that we could rent wet suits and booties. Spend about 1/2 hour getting ready and instruction and 1 1/2 hours on the water.

Garrett County Museum of Transportation

Reviewed By maryallan816

In my wanderings, I decided to visit the museum (and just barely beat a rainstorm!!) What a delight - especially the cars that are privately owned and have been refurbished. Upstairs was local history, including a horrific story about a school bus that stalled on the railroad tracks. I had no idea about that history.

We hiked here with our little person. Trails were great! Very well kept. We wandered down to the water front and found a secluded spot to hang out! Will definitely go back!

Herrington Manor State Park

Reviewed By LOwen1949

We bring our grandkids to Harrington Manor every year. The park is well maintained by the state. Youngest enjoy the small sand beach. Older kids like to canoe and fish for pike in the lake. Lake is shallow so not much for serious fishing but kids enjoy it. We’ve rented a cabin a couple times. They’re a bit rustic but they’re great alternative to tent camping with kids. Close to Swallow Falls, rafting on the Youghioheny River and all of the Deep Creek Lake activities. Great trails for hiking and cross country skiing in winter. Equipment rentals are available and inexpensive.

Oakland is a cute little town who is taking preserving its history seriously. This museum is only a part of several museums in the area. If you are in Deep Creek take a minute and stop by here for something special.

Wisp Resort

Reviewed By Specklfrog - London, United States

My 8 year old was excited to try the ropes course but panicked when she got started. A staff member named Oray (not sure of the spelling) was extremely patient and helped her through the course. She finished with the zip line and decided she had fun after all and that she’d like to try it again someday! Thank you Oray for helping her believe in herself.
