    A NOTE FROM THE OWNERS:
    We are the owners of A Scandinavian Retreat. We want to thank all of our renters from the 2023 season. We hope you enjoyed your time at our property and made a lot of forever memories while you were there. Our family also makes it to DCL several times during the year to enjoy life at the lake. We love our property and are always thankful when the visitors (both people and animals) who enjoy it are careful and respectful. Sharing a property is always easier when visitors treat a property the same as they would if it were their own.

    DESCRIPTION:
    A Scandinavian Retreat is a fabulous chalet set upon a wooded lot on the banks of the quiet Carmel Cove. This dog-friendly home offers beautiful cathedral ceilings and large decks, paired with the stunning stone fireplace and airy loft that are reminiscent of the Swiss style. And the lavish delights of this lake chalet go far beyond the architecture! The comfort of the wooded setting encourages you to linger on the deck to take in the sounds of nature, fresh mountain air and the stunning colors of the changing seasons. The large lot is great for kids and dog to enjoy and expend some extra energy. The warmth of this beautiful chalet offers a quiet relaxing retreat while still keeping you close to area activities and family favorite destinations. The local movie theater, Deep Creek Lake State Park, and a plethora of local favorite restaurants are all just short drives from the home. At the end of the day be sure to enjoy a dip in the bubbles of the hot tub or cozy up in front of the fire pit telling stories. In the winter, being curled up with a good book in front of the fireplace as the snow falls outside couldn't be a more picturesque way to spend the day! A Scandinavian Retreat is a vacation destination that will keep you coming back again and again (no matter the season)!
