Beautiful Home and Location
Great home and layout which accommodated our large family of 8 (4 adults, 4 small children) perfectly. Enjoyed the snowy weather, sledding outside, and warming up in front of 1 of 3 fireplaces and an outdoor hot tub. The only downside was flaky wifi performance which could be easily improved with better wireless router placement/installation.

Thank you for submitting this review of your recent stay, your feedback is very valuable to us.  We are happy to hear you had a wonderful time here at the lake and have mad  a note to pass along about the wifi.  Sometimes the signal in our area gets very weak.
Please come see us again soon

Even Better the Second Time
We had previously stayed at Brief Respite back in 2014 and really enjoyed our time there, so we didn't bother to shop around when looking to book another trip to Deep Creek Lake. We were impressed that Brief Respite is actually nicer now than it was 6 years ago. There has definitely been some remodeling, new furniture and new appliances/electronics over the past few years. The property still feels very peaceful and secluded. There is something for everyone in this house, whether it's s'mores over the fire, a dip in the hot tub, a rousing game of air hockey, or just relaxing in the recliner. I'm hoping to go back again, sooner than 6 years from now.

Thanks, Robert!  We are so happy that you came back to Brief Respite!  We hope that you come stay with us again!

Wonderful Weekend Getaway
Brief Respite is a beautiful property. Decor and views are even prettier than the pictures. House is really well appointed, kitchen is nicely organized and has everything you need. We were three families and our teenage kids and had plenty of room to spread out.

Hi Colleen,

Thank you for the review! It is wonderful to hear that you had such a good time. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again.

Best,

Great Place for a Large Family
We had a great time at Brief Respite. With ages ranging from 2 to 77, the house met the needs of everyone. The kitchen was large enough to cook complete meals for 11 and the kitchen table was great for eating all together. We loved the game room downstairs. We tried to use the hot tub but it never warmed up sufficiently. Having 2 levels meant we could split up at times and then hang out all together as well. The deck would be great in warmer weather and the view of the trees and the lake was gorgeous with fresh snow and ice covering all of the trees. Everyone was thrilled with the house and we would love to return someday.

Thanks, Deborah!  So happy that you enjoyed your stay!  The owner actually purchased a new hot tub and it will be installed this week!  Hope you come see us again!
