Originally a farmhouse built in 1936, this beautiful home has an enormous backyard and plenty of room for activities. The beautiful stone fireplace, wet bar, and game table make the living room a wonderful place to gather and entertain in. The kitchen (complete with kitchen island) provides a seamless transition between cooking and hosting. Need a break from the action? A separate sitting room is at the opposite end of the first floor and even offers a workspace ideal for remote work. Upstairs, you'll find the majority of the bedrooms and the luxurious main bathroom, which features a jetted tub, double sinks, gas fireplace, and a private balcony. There is no shortage of outdoor spots to enjoy where you can grill on the large wrap-around deck or enjoy the front porch swing after a day of adventure on the lake or in the parks! Just sit back, relax, and gaze out to the seasonal mountain tree line.
The rural setting of this home is part of its charm as you can relax in quiet seclusion and still be less than two miles from all the action. Within minutes, you can be at the Wisp Ski Resort which offers year-round activities, and Lodestone and Fantasy Valley golf courses. Fantasy Valley was named one of the top 100 courses to play in the mid-Atlantic. Guests don't have to travel far to enjoy delicious local food from restaurants like Mountain State Brewing Co. and Moonshadow. Whether it’s hiking, kayaking, skiing, park exploration, golf, shopping, or any of the many other recreational activities the Deep Creek Lake area offers, you can easily access them and then return to the pastoral environment that surrounds this charming house.

The house was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The huge deck and private yard was nice for kids to play and run around. The No A/C wasn’t a problem the windows open and fans running really cooled it off at night. There were fans in every room. The large open living room and dining room was great for game nights. Location is close to everything!! I would definitely return.
Overall it was a great place to stay. The only issue was the door lock batteries died and we got locked out an hour before the I was suppose to be at the wedding. It took about a half hour for them to come fix the lock. Everything else was great.
The bathroom is the show stopper of this home...i loved the open floor plan made it easier to navigate with my sons wheelchair...my complaint is the size of the bedroom on the first floor i think personally if a home is described as handicap accessible it should be able to fit the persons wheelchair comfortable in the room....the furniture and appliances are very outdated..there wasnt a telivision in the main floor bedroom which is where i needed it for my son in the wheelchair .the view is beautiful..but theres a firepit in the yard that i was told we were not permitted to use...which was odd..but overall i had a peaceful stay ..with a little tlc amazing grace could reach her full potential

It was what we needed, and in a perfect location for our visit. Unfortunately, we had some non-detrimental issues.
No internet/network connection. Tired all the 'tricks' and called Vacasa. They couldn't help, told us they would contact their 'partner' who would contact us. It was late, but we never received contact the first night. Tried in the morning but again, we never received contact from their 'partner' and so, we lived without internet for the weekend. Not a huge deal, but the kids did have homework we had hoped they'd be able to work on during some down time.
Really wished they had screens for the porch doors! There was such a perfect breeze but couldn't get the circulation we needed.
Downstairs bedroom (twin beds) smelled like old urine, similar to a nursing home facility. Opening the windows didn't really help.
The upstairs bathroom was huge and lovely, however, I think they missed out on many opportunities to make it better. The jacuzzi tub is about the size of a normal bathroom tub. Shower is small, even for my 5 foot self. There wasn't many places to hang towels; a bar on the shower door and 2 small hooks near the laundry. The small hooks are no where near the shower or tub. Lots of wasted shelf space and a the large-ish closet seemed pointless.
There is no ice machine or ice trays! I don't need a fancy counter top ice maker, but ice trays would have been nice.
For a short stay, we might stay again, but not for a week long vacation.

Our stay was very relaxing. House was in a nice location.
Quaint and beautiful house with gorgeous views. The house was very clean and true to pictures. The only downfall, and I wouldn’t consider it really a downfall but they did not have basic seasonings to cook like salt and pepper. And the cable tv was spotty. But other than that beautiful house, perfect for a weekend getaway and close to the lake, Wisp and other activities. All within a 5 minute drive. Perfect!!!

Perfect
Close to Wisp and wrap around porch is a life goal.
What a great place for a ski weekend! This house is super cozy with plenty of room, comfy beds, a huge bathroom including a steam shower, and a great location for skiing at Wisp only a couple of miles easy drive away.
Rented this property for a buddies bachelor party. A great amount of space for 7 guys. Had everything we needed including a ton of extra towels, TP, trash bags etc. The location is extremely close to everything and it's only about 5 min from wisp. 10/10 and would highly recommend and would definitely rent again.
Stayed at Amazing Grace in McHenry. House was clean and charming and made our Christmas vacation perfect. Close to restaurants, shopping, Whisp and State parks. Highly recommend!!

This home was great for what it is.
Overall we were very happy with Amazing Grace. I do wish they had better cooking knives and it did not have big enough cooking pots. Plenty of silverware, china etc for our family. I might suggest a new stove since that one was a little jenky. I also wish the sauna in the upstairs bathoom had more specific instructions as they were burned out and we were unable to read them and I also wish you had told us to bring chairs for outdoor seating. Overall though our expereience was good.

Very Comfortable Home and Super Convenient
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Amazing Grace. It’s very peaceful and super close to everything. We would’ve enjoyed a fire pit but otherwise everything was wonderful. We would definitely rent this home again.

Excellent stay
The house is amazing! Everything is clean and well taken care of. We had plenty of space, enjoyed the peace and quiet, and spent a ton of time on the porch. We'll definitely be back.
It was a beautiful house, great location, and view. Even though it did not have AC, it had plenty of fans. The beds were very comfortable too! Would stay here again.

Beautiful Setting
The view from the two decks is pastoral and beautiful. Much of the 1st floor interior and the upstairs spa room are done in natural wood. Both areas have beautiful doors which give an expansive view of the natural setting. Convenient to grocery shopping and family activities. About 15 minutes from swimming at the State Park. Enjoyed our stay very much.
