Great cabin

The cabin was very nice. The only drawback was that there was no dining table. My husband and I brought a lot of board games because the weather was supposed to be bad, but weren’t really able to play any. Other than that the communication with the owner was great. The hot tub was lovely. We had a great time.

Very Relaxing Weekend

The Love Shack is perfect for a couple or a small family. It was clean and well maintained. The hot tub was very relaxing. We liked that all the appliances and equipment worked perfectly. The front porch was nice for sitting by the fire pit in the evening. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and will be returning.

Relaxing Getaway

We stayed at the Love Shack for a few days between Christmas and New Years. The cabin was cozy and met all of our needs. We enjoyed the hot tub one evening of our stay and loved the fireplace over the chilly nights. Our teen daughter had a great time reading, writing, and hanging out in the loft. The property location was in close proximity to area attractions. We did find the small neighborhood and lack of side walks a little challenging with our dog, but nothing we could not work around. Overall, we enjoyed a relaxing stay. Many thanks to the host for the clear communication throughout our stay and for making the accommodation available

Quiet and cozy

This was the second time we stayed at The Love Shack and enjoyed our stay as much this time as last. It is an adorable cabin with an outside hot tub and all the amenities of home in the quiet Yellowstone Village. It is close to restaurants, shopping, Deep Creek lake and a lot of fun activities. Booking with Vrbo was easy and working with the property owner Michelle has always been a pleasant experience. We would not hesitate to book again in the future.

Also, food and essentials were close. Michelle was the consummate professional at keeping us apprised of what we needed to do and what to expect. We will definitely return!

Best girls trip cabin ever

The love shack was such an amazing cabin for my girls trip! The whole house was so clean and smelled so good it just made you feel instantly comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with very nice dishes and utensils as well as cookware. The whole house was decorated so cute (we even took pictures for inspiration for our own houses). The hot tub was perfect and the gas fire pit on the front porch was perfect to sit out there and watch the rain. Will definitely be booking again!

Loved the Love Shack

My family (me 45, wife 43, daughter 12, son 8) fit perfectly in the cozy confines of the cabin. It was easy to get to and a reasonable drive to everywhere we wanted to visit. We love the area and this time we tried horseback riding. We also went to Swallow Falls twice in our 4 day stay. Hot tub is a nice perk too. We had most of our meals outside on the front porch, so all 4 of us could sit at a table together. Very reasonably priced too. The hosts were very helpful and communicative. We would go here again.

Great Place for a Weekend Getaway!

My wife and I stayed here to celebrate our 30th anniversary. The Love Shack was absolutely adorable with lots of rustic charm and it was very convenient to many things in the Deep Creek area. We hiked/biked two state parks and did some of the summer activities Wisp resort offered. There were several restaurants to choose from within a couple miles and we had some great dinners overlooking the lake. The home was perfect for our needs. We found the kitchen to be well stocked for preparing breakfast and lunch. It was very clean when we arrived. And, we enjoyed the hot tub after hiking. All is all, my wife and I had a great time and would stay here again if we come back to the Deep Creek area.

Cozy Cabin located in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood just off the popular Glendale Road. An absolute gem, close to the lake and all the popular spots! Brought our dog and enjoyed the walks around the loop seeing all the beauty. Loved the fire pit on the front porch where we consumed way too many s’mores. This cabin comes fully stocked, they even supply the little extras like trash bags, dishwasher pods and hand soap! Anything you forgot, there’s a convenient DG Market right down the road. We were a family of four with a dog and everyone had their own space to enjoy. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a restful and stress free getaway. Owner Michelle was fantastic and very responsive and check in was flawless.
