Happy Returns

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Quiet, inviting, and beautifully located for experiencing all that Deep Creek Lake has to offer, Happy Returns is a place to make lasting family memories. Here in the serene community of Sky Valley, you'll enjoy a community beach with a swimming dock, lake access for kayaking and water sports, a fishing pond, and more than seven miles of quiet gravel roads for biking and walking.

This two-level log cabin sits in the woodlands about three blocks from the community's beach on Deep Creek Lake, so you can easily walk home from your morning adventures on the water. Take a seat on the covered porch or the back deck, get the gas grill going for lunch, and keep your eyes peeled for the deer that are known to pass through the yard. Or, head inside to find a wealth of entertainment awaiting downstairs, where you'll have your choice of billiards, Ping-Pong, air hockey, darts, board games, and a flatscreen TV to watch in the warmth of an electric fireplace.

The main-level living space is just as welcoming, offering another electric fireplace, a second flatscreen TV, and leather furnishings. The kitchen is fully equipped with both essential appliances and such bonuses as a Keurig, a blender, and a crockpot. There's even a fire ring outside where you can gather to toast marshmallows for dessert. Additional amenities include a basement laundry room and free WiFi throughout the house.

Nice getaway in the woods
Overall, this is a very nice property. Positives: - spacious living area - all rooms have AC if needed - WiFi signal was strong - kitchen had plenty of plates/cups/utensils - coffee maker worked great - spacious refrigerator with ice maker/water - clean bathrooms with plenty of hot water - linens were clean and comfortable (as well as plentiful) - beds were firm and comfy. - ample parking - easy access to lake marina and swimming area - grill works great (was just filthy when we opened it) - nice deck, front porch, and fire pit with ample seating for a group. - checkin/out were very easy. Drawbacks: - we could not get the dishwasher to work - many of the entertainment features in the basement (pool table, air hockey, dart boards) did not have enough functioning pieces to use them (broken cue sticks, air hockey paddles, darts) - house is older (probably built in the 60’s or 70’s so it is no central air) and some features a touch dated. - cleaning supplies, TP, trash bags, and paper towels could have been better stocked.

Absolutely Beautiful
We brought our friends from England for a weekend getaway. This home was wonderful. Everything was clean and tidy. The beds were very comfortable. It is situated in a small community surrounded by woods and wildlife. We got to see a herd of deer pass through the yard. Perfect quiet place to decompress or a nice getaway.

We spent the Christmas storm of 2022 at Happy Returns. It was very cold and windy outside but we had a warm and fantastic time inside. The pool table / tennis table was great, the kitchen well appointed (no problem making Christmas lunch) and the beds comfortable. There was even Christmas decorations and a tree! Thanks for the new flashlight - it came in really handy in the blackout! Most importantly, Happy Returns is very well loved, and it was a pleasure to spend a very memorable holiday there.
