Beckman Peninsula Spectacular Location!

Pleasing whimsical touches and artsy accents are abundant in this lakefront cottage jewel. Soft greens and powder blues adorn the interior and blend seamlessly with the lush natural setting of "Whispering Pines." The downstairs hearth room, just off the kitchen/dining area, has a splendid - no, make that spectacular - view of Deep Creek Lake. A private, lit walkway takes you right down to the docks and the water's edge. A generous outdoor patio is as perfect for entertaining friends as it is for memorable moments with family - plan on having many! The home is conveniently located within minutes of the State Park and could be the perfect place to gather for your next family reunion or company retreat!

Right on the lake, comfortable and relatively clean.
We stayed at this property during Labor day week-end. The house was as it looked on the pictures, except that two of the 4 bedrooms do not have windows, which I don't think comply with fire safety laws. We asked the kids to keep their door open at night since it was their only escape way in case of fire. The kitchen had plenty of dishes and utensils. The house was a bit dated but homey. It looked clean at first glance, but there was lots of dust under the furniture and sofas (as often seen in vacation rentals). We liked the hot-tub (clean) and the immediate access to the lake. Overall, we had a good experience and would return.

Great place to stay in Deep Creek
A great location on Deep Creek with a great outdoor space and easy access to the dock. Check in was easy, the place comfortably fit our group and there is plenty of parking.

Peaceful Family Friendly Cottage
Wispering Pines was a quaint and peaceful place to stay. While the walk down to the docks contained a lot of stairs, the lakefront location was perfect for our family’s needs. Kids enjoyed swimming off the dock and the hot tub. Adults enjoyed the separate sitting rooms and plentiful spaces for relaxation. Secondary rooms were small and became hot with doors closed but they did the trick. We enjoyed the books and games provided. Overall a very nice house!

Great spot! We will be coming back!
We stayed for a long weekend and loved this house. All of the bedrooms made sleeping arrangements for all 7 of us easy. We loved how big the kitchen was. Never felt like we were stepping on each others toes. The outside space was awesome. with the hot tub, deck, fir pit area and large dock. Only downside outdoors was there is a row of bushes blocking the view from the deck to the lake. Not sure if that is on purpose but its blocking an amazing view. I would not recommend for any one with any mobility issues. There are many many small elevation changes inside the house that caused several trips. We will be back again!

Watch your step
Many small steps everywhere indoors, many trips and stubbed toes.Steps outside are dangerous as there are no markings to warn of changing levels. There were 4 falls in our group.

Perfect location in a great house
The house has a lot of cute character and it was the perfect size for two couples. The steps down to the dock gave us quite the workout carrying our kayaks, but the location and access can't be beat. We absolutely loved our stay there! Neighborhood is gorgeous and everyone we talked with was wonderfully friendly.

Great Lake and Ski Getaway!
The house was situated in a perfect location, convenient and secluded, and right on the lake! The house was quirky and full of character, which we loved! The built in games and hot tub were a hit for all. Thanks for a great stay!

Beautiful views, responsive host but in need of renovations
There are many positives about the property: the location is beautiful and views gorgeous from the house, the host is very responsive and the second level of the property is nice. The house is really a tale of two homes--the main floor and entrance (bedrooms, bathrooms, and rec room) are nice and in good shape. The main bedroom bed was very comfortable but the lower level/living area with kitchen, dining area and living area needs alot of TLC. A deep clean at a minimum is needed. The kitchen is old and the cabinets inside and out are stained from years of use. There is nothing extra in the property so you literally have to bring every single thing you need. Potential renters should also be aware that the house is located at the bottom of steep declining driveway. In the winter, this is a huge concern. Even with my 4 wheel drive vehicle it was very difficult and dangerous to come and go. Our car slid back multiple times trying to drive up with the snow and ice. Most of the other properties nearby have created parking pads at the top of the hill/entrance to their properties to address this issue. The property has a lot of potential but needs some investment and a few additional touches to make this a great rental.

Lovely getaway
Wonderful time with friends and family . The house was just as described-rustic, older, the bedrooms are small except for the master- but we didn’t go there to sleep - so it got 5 stars. If you want a high end fancy home, then go pay the price for that. The house was more than adequate for a very reasonable price. Waterfront, in a quiet neighborhood , delightful deck/ hot tub/ view. The homeowner was very attentive, responded quickly, and took care of everything we needed.
