New! Knotty Bear Cabin: Lake Area, Dogs Welcome, Hot Tub, Fire Pit!
Name: Knotty Bear Cabin | Bedrooms: 2 | Bathrooms: 2 | Sleeps: 8 | Access: Lake Area | Dogs Welcome Max. 2 | MUST BE 28+ YEARS TO RENT | Free WIFI Provided
DESCRIPTION: Welcome to Knotty Bear Cabin, a spacious (pet-friendly) home ready for your vacation! The cabin is nestled in the Gravelly Run area right off Route 219, just a stone’s throw from the many offerings (Aquatic Center, Shops at Deep Creek Lake, Wisp, dining, entertainment) that the Northeast side of Deep Creek Lake has to offer.
The cabin's open floor plan of the living room with large Roku TV and gas fireplace is comfortable and inviting for cozying in after a day on the lake or slopes. Have your morning coffee/tea on the front porch, a casual breakfast at the island, and dinner at the large eight-person dining table!
The space in this two-bedroom home offers flexibility in sleeping arrangements – a king bedroom equipped with a Roku TV on the first floor adjoins a large full bathroom with a separate shower and jacuzzi tub. On the second floor, an airy loft opens to the living room and can offer a seating area (or extra sleep space with the queen-sized sleeper sofa) or play space to accommodate your needs, while the large second bedroom boasts another king-sized bed with twin bunk beds and Roku TV.
Walking through the breezeway of this home into the garage, have some family fun at the ping pong table or take the stairs above the garage to a hidden game space with a shuffleboard table, foosball table and extra living room/den area complete with another Roku TV. Bonus – the noise made in the game room can’t be heard in the main living room, offering relaxation in the main house while the kids (0-99) play!
After a long day of fun, make s'mores and hang out by the campfire, or take a relaxing soak in the seven person hot tub, and make some memories at Knotty Bear Cabin!

Wisp and Fooseball
Great stay! The Knotty Bear cabin was perfect for our group- 4 adults, 2 dogs. Kitchen had everything you could need. The in house amenities- ping pong, Fooseball, shuffle board, board games made rainy day entertainment way more fun. 6 minute drive to the Wisp for skiing.

Winter Wonderland
The property was clean, spacious, and comfortable with all the amenities described. The hot tub was lovely and the game room and ping pong table kept our teen/ tween boys occupied. Located very close to Wisp and lots of restaurants and activities. It’s a gem. We would definitely stay at Knotty Bear again.

Great family getaway and central location can’t be beat!
Wonderful, clean, spacious house that was perfect for our Deep Creek trip. Close to Honi Honi, Swallow Falls, lots of coffee shops, the brewery, Wisp—the list goes on. it’s a great central location for all things Deep Creek. The house itself had plenty of room for our family of 5, and the dog bowl for our pup was a sweet surprise. Hot tub was perfect. Grill (gas as well as charcoal) was great, fire pit so cute. Beds comfy. Front and back porches provided shade and cool down time when we needed it. Definitely recommend.
