Mountain Gem

Overall a great home but some things need fixing. Downstairs electric fireplace does not work so that was disappointing. Upper deck has a rotted board in the middle which is very dangerous. Furniture on deck needs replaced, chipping and peeling wood furniture was not inviting. No fire pit as advertised. Beds were nice.

Mountain Gem stay

One of the best places we have stayed so far. Lots of room in the house. We had 10 people staying. Down side is upstairs showers don’t get any water if running water anywhere else. Need bigger pots. Overall I would definitely recommend this place.

The interior of the property and the amenities were superb. Unfortunately the exterior areas were very disappointing. The porch, table, chairs all needed repairs. There's paint peeling off the porch floor, chairs, railings and table. The porch chairs, porch railing all have areas where there are missing pieces of wood. There are tall weeds growing beside and through the entry steps. The exterior walls also needed some repairs. The side of house next to the entry way is not as deposit in the photos.

The location of this property in the Cedar Shores Community was convenient to amenities, stores and the lake. The gym and pool availability though CARC was a nice perk. The property is in need of repairs, updating and a good deep cleaning. With all the other inventory in the Deep Creek region and the condition of this property; we won't be staying here again.

Friends Getaway

Every year we have a group of 4 couples and we get together for a long weekend of fun and relaxation. Mountain Gem was an absolutely wonderful place to stay. The home was very clean and well kept. They provided a generous amount of wood which was nice because it was super cold. Will definitely keep this house on rotation.

A lovely get away

This was a clean, luxurious house within walking distance of entertainment, restaurants, and the lake. The check-in process was easy, and the rooms were all very comfortable. An excellent choice for anyone with a large group.

Great Location

Spacious single home in a convenient location next to the lake. A mini golf course and go kart track can be seen from the house and is a short walk away.

We went to the lake to get away

We enjoyed spending time with family. A little disappointed that we really didn't get to spend time in or at the lake -access was around someone else's property
