We had a good time at this property. The hiking trail along the lake was nice. Property sits in the back of a cove, so the boat traffic was minimal.

Love this house and hope to return again. Comfortable cabin-no pretensions, just great location, great views, great trail, dock & water access. Great new steps to lower level deck this year, too. New stove and dishwasher since our last visit, too. Overall a charming, comfortable, dog-friendly house, and great place for a fun, relaxing vacation.

House is extremely cozy inside-love the pine board , fireplace, and vintage skis. Back decks are great for viewing lake. Not sure when the docks go out-would have been nice to have available. Downstairs gameroom TV isn't working-faulty power button, remote batteries expired. Loved playing on pool table, but a few new cues would be nice. Property is on a secluded, quiet part of lake-very enjoyable.

Our stay was in the El Dorado was amazing!! It was beautifully decorated, equipped with everything we needed, comfortable furnishings, cozy and spacious!! We enjoyed fires inside and outside, the hot tub and the stunning view of the lake! Everyone in the family agreed this was one of our best vacations ever!! We can't wait to book another stay at the El Dorado!

- Rina Q. from Annapolis, Posted: 12/14/2016

El Dorado is ideally located on a quite dead end street and in a peaceful cove at the west end of DCL. The house is rustic but very well maintained and equipped with everything needed for an enjoyable vacation. This was our tenth visit to DCL but the first time staying at El Dorado. I highly recommend El Dorado and plan to stay there again myself.

No major complaints . Location was great. Very close to the water. Very quiet area while we were there. Fishing was nonexistent frm the shore or dock. Need to empty the dehumidifiers daily to prevent mustiness. Lots of cut dry wood available for fires. Would stay here again.

Gorgeous views, stocked kitchen and fun amenities. Would definitely come back

- Tara P. from Fallston, Posted: 06/13/2016

Typical lake house with a great view, nice cove, perfect dock, cool fire pit with all the kitchen instruments you need for a great week on the lake. The only negative was lake house smell in the basement and on the sheets, but hey, it is a lake house.

The property and location was very nice, the staff very professional and the overall experience was excellent! Thank you!

- David P. from Parkersburg, Posted: 07/28/2014

El Dorado is a well-appointed, nicely located vacation home on the lake. We (and our Irish Setter) absolutely LOVED the walking trail -- very beautiful and peaceful. The house accommodates a large crowd, but with sufficient privacy for couples, as the rooms and baths are nicely separated. Overall, the house could have been cleaner. And negotiating the rock "steps" was a bit dicey when they got wet. Other than that, a great stay on the lake!

- Julie H. from Warrenton, Posted: 06/11/2014

the stay was wonderful the house was very nice need more light on the outside going up the deck stairs very dark need a good dusting but I would stay there again a great view of the lake.

- Karen R. from Chamog, Posted: 11/12/2013

El Dorado is located in a quieter cover near the dam, a good area for boating activity, not as busy or as choppy as some areas. The view from porch was grand but would be even better if they cut away some scrub trees on the right. The trail is a very nice feature. Has a basketball court which is very nice feature. We loved it.

- Frederick F. from Olney, Posted: 08/07/2013

We actually got married on the dock of El Dorado, it was only the couple and our minister and a witness (4 people and 2 dogs) It was the most beautiful experience.

- Alicia D. from Pittsburgh, Posted: 07/31/2013

Loved home,dock,trail and privacy. Great place for new skiers to learn in quieter lake area. Very close to so many activities. The amount of usable outdoor deck area is amazing and understated. Negatives were: We never found light switch for lights on steps going to lake and many fell/tripped after dark. We desperately needed more lighting in living room and over table area to read and see to play games. The two large brown snakes that were outside on concrete coming in front door and sunning right on the side of the house in wood-framed section were terifying. The trash was full when we arrived so we could not use trash can until Tuesday :( . Attack fan ran 24/7 above back bedroom :( .

Thanks for a great vacation. We loved the location right on the lake and were so happy with the amenities in the home. The games and toys closet was a big hit with the kids!

- Jessica L. from Gibsonia, Posted: 07/11/2013

We loved the location and Taylor_Made Vacations' professionalism - the house was generally clean, but very dusty behind the beds and in hidden places. The deck furniture was also very dirty from the winter. TV in the main bedroom was not working with a sign on it, burner not working on stove, and the screen door came off hinges. Taylor-Made was right on these problems right after my phone call and remedied all except for the TV. One other issue was when the property locked us out by changing the code 15 minutes before our checkout time. Luckily, we got our dog out before this happened. Overall we had a great time and the location was very nice. Loved the cedar inside the house.

We had a GREAT time at Deep Creek Lake thanks to the location and amenities of the El Dorado rental property. It was so relaxing, the neighbors were friendly, and the weather was absolutely perfect while we were there. We caught plenty of fish that we were able to have a fish fry. We couldn't have asked for a better get away. I plan to book the El Dorado again in the not too distant future!

- Andrew P. from Owings, Posted: 09/18/2012

Wonderful place to stay. great view of the lake. didn't like the distance to deep creek and shops. also the driveway had a very big dropoff which i thought was dangerous. but other than that, we had a very peaceful stay. thank you

We've been coming to Deep Creek for 15 years now, and the absolute standout about this house was the location. The walking trail made our whole vacation - we were out on it 2-3 times a day with our *very* happy Shetland Sheepdog. The dock and water were both great; quiet and relaxing to sit and swim well off the major boating routes. El Dorado is the perfect retreat house to relax in, with absolutely gorgeous views from decks and hot tub and the comfortable, well stocked cabin setting inside there was something to appeal to everyone in our extended family group. We'd definitely stay here again, and our first trip with TaylorMade couldn't have been smoother or easier.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We have rented about 15 years at DCL at 7 different locations and loved this one!

- Steve L. from Bethesda, Posted: 08/14/2012

vacation was great we have stayed here for 2 years. we plan on coming back every year from here on out. the place could use some AC.

- Jamie M. from Saltsburg, Posted: 07/09/2012

El Dorado had all the amenities our family of five (with 3 teenagers) could ever need, from a fireplace with ample wood supply to hot tub, billiard and foosball tables, a great supply of movies, lakefront location, 2-mile walking trail, board games, and more. Our only regret is that our 3-day stay wasn' t longer. We'll be back.

- Neil B. from Pittsburgh, Posted: 11/29/2011

El Dorado is such a unique home. The home is full of antiques and the furnishings are quite comfortable. The view of the lake is breathtaking!! Our daughter and son-in-law surprised us with our 3 week old granddaughter and our adult son and his girlfriend also spent the week. The home is large enough that we had lots of togetherness but were able to spread out and have our privacy also. We started our week with sunshine and warmth and our week ended with 6 inches of snow! We will definitely return to El Dorado! Thank you Taylor-Made Deep Creek Vacations for going out of your way to get permission for us to bring all 3 of our dogs!!

Need better pull out bed mattress is uncomfortable to sleep on. Sliding glass door screen has holes and a lot of flies came in.

- Robin S. from Abingdon, Posted: 08/01/2011

Railing needs fixed leading from the deck but otherwise great house.

- Paul B. from Jarrettsville, Posted: 06/08/2011

Driveway very small....very inconvenient to park and get out without doing 6-point turns. Maybe you can somehow add a horseshoe shaped entrance for easy access and exiting. Also, you may want to invest in a steel trash recepticle. during our stay, a bear tore threw the wooden boards, ripping them off and eventually getting into the trash. Needless to say, it was a mess to clean up....since the trash hadn't been picked up from previous vacation guests.

- Pam S. from Adamstown, Posted: 04/27/2011

The location was fantastic. Wonderful view of the lake, quiet area with direct access to the walking path.

The house was fairly dusty and there were mouse droppings in a few areas. This detracted from the cozy cabin feel of the home.

Taylor-Made was responsive to a small leak we found in the utility room but when we went to pick up our "Welcome" bag, they had none. The office said they would drop one off and we agreed on a time but the Welcome pack never arrived.

Very nice home. Very relaxing. Great location. Clean and well maintained. Definately will consider staying there next fall.

- Anonymous from Saltsburg, Posted: 10/19/2010

The view was fantastic however the house had several problems. The septic tank must not have been drained for a long time as a horrible odor emminated from the vents in several parts of the house. The couch was covered in dog hair and we found dog feces under the stool in the basement. The sofa bed in the basement was completely inoperable and the dishwasher made terrible, loud noises when it was turned on. We had to remove the kitchen trash can lid as it had a nail sticking out of it and was falling apart (wooden). Although the house was on the lake, we felt the price was way too high for the quality we received. We would not rent it again.

The septic system was not vented properly and there was a terrible smell in the back two bedrooms and bathrooms!!

El Dorado was precisely as advertised! Perfect location, close to shopping and attractions, beautiful view of the lake, just a wonderful place to get a little peace and relaxation. I can't wait to return!

- Vicki G. from Frederick, Posted: 05/18/2010

Loved our stay! Nice cove. Great for swimming since boat traffic is not too close. Loved the walking trail. House had lots of amentities - kitchen fully stocked. Can't wait to come back next year!

- Annette I. from Downington, Posted: 07/29/2009

I really was pleased with the quality of house I rented. I was only displeased by the pool table missing the #5 ball! Outside of that it was a great time!

- Blake M. from Dunkirk, Posted: 06/09/2009

When we had a problem with our original rental home, Taylor-Made resolved the issue promptly and to our satisfaction. The property was in great condition and well stocked, including a good selection of toys and movies. We would definitely rent with Taylor-Made in the future.

- Anonymous from Hargerstown, Posted: 04/07/2009

We had lots of fun and the cabin was just beautiful. We will definitely stay again in the future.

- Cassio M. from Fairfax, Posted: 03/10/2009

I liked the place very much, the office gave us the wrong address first though and we had to call the emergency hotline, then the check out dial in number didn't work either. But the place was nice.
