My family (2 daughters, 2 sons-in-law, 2 grandkids, 2 dogs) had a great time at Our Golden Retreat. We each had a floor to ourselves but hung out together a lot in the living room. We loved that it had a dock for our boat and a pretty private backyard. The kitchen is also well equipped for cooking meals. The one thing that could be improved is If they replace the patio set. It is old.

Hi Glenda So happy to hear you had a wonderful time with your family. We will pass the note about the patio set to the owner and see if we can get that replaced for next year. Please come see us again! Shelia

Our Golden Retreat is a great property that is great for families and groups looking to enjoy the lake. It is lake front has a slight hill and set of stairs to access the water. Their is a patio feet from the lake along with a fire pit adjacent to that. The house has all the amenities necessary but I would suggest you bring extra pots and pans if you are looking to do a lot of cooking. We couldn't fine one matching lid and very few pots. Their is a great warp around porch that offer awesome lake views.

Location was better than expected. Cherry Cove is a great fishing spot, amazing views, amazing yard that leads to the dock. Right between the Glendale and 219 bridge. Short boat drive to Brenda's and Traders Coffee, Arrowhead Market, High Mountain sports and Bill's boat rentals. Short drive to Wal-mart, and Smiley's (the activities place). Right next to the State Park that offers a beach, boat slips, trails, etc. Close to Swallow Falls and Herrington Manor for hiking and falls viewing, wildlife, etc. Roasted smores at the firepit while others fished and watched the sunset. The home needs some tlc, and redecorating,but I am assuming thats kinda a given when you consider its a property that allows pets. Adequate space for sleeping quarters and bathrooms. Main level bathrooms had been renovated so I opted to stay on the main level. I might suggest the possibility of adding a couple of in home amenities if possible, like maybe some tvs (I think the master bedroom was the only bedroom that had a tv and it was really small, but the basement and main level had a tv each), billiard, darts, something else to do in the evenings (although we did go to gokarts and stuff outside of the house). The wi-fi password written down was from several years ago, and the office didn't have an updated one. They sent someone out later that day who was very friendly and professional. There's no shortage of outdoor stuff to do in Deep Creek-kids had a blast getting towed around on the rafts. Lake trampolines were all rented out but would have been fun.

Have 8 friends that have been gathering on this same weekend every year for almost 20 years. This is our 2nd year staying at A golden Retreat and the house and property are perfect. We had 3 issues upon arriving, a tiolet not working and an empty Propane tank. Taylor Made had someone out within 20 minutes with a replacement propane tank and he fixed the toilet. The guy that came out was very friendly, talked to us for a couple minutes and had the job done in 5 minutes. I was thoroughly impressed! They also offer key less entry for this house so we never had to go to the rental office. Had an issue with the code but I called the office, they gave me a new code and we were in. The measure of a company is how they respond when you have problems. Taylor Made knows how to please there customers.

Loved the quiet lakefront location. Fire pit was a plus. Kitchen had the conveniences we needed
We didn't have any pets with us. Had to vacuum excessive pet hair off of living room furniture and rug.
Otherwise very enjoyable stay.
