We headed to Deep Creek Lake for a quick getaway and we were not disappointed with this hotel. On the outside it looks like an older 1950s-style roadside motel. However, on the inside the rooms are beautifully renovated, clean and spacious. The room came with all of the amenities including a small refrigerator, microwave and coffee station. Did I mention how clean they are? And the price was phenomenal for a summer stay at the lake. Five stars and we will definitely be back!

I really liked the easy check-in with one of the nice owners of the Garrett Inn. I was impressed with their care and details put in my room. You have everything you need. It was spotless, beautiful, and the bed was so comfortable. Great town to visit, by a lake and movie theatre.
