DESCRIPTION:
Let the sunlight streaming in through the trees welcome you to your Deep Creek Lake vacation at Sunlit Serenity! This little chalet is perfect for a private family reunion or an intimate gathering among friends. Located close to quiet Carmel Cove, this home is an easy walk away from the home’s community dock slip and lake access point, yet offers the tranquility of a private wooded setting. This home provides plenty of space for outdoor pursuits with a shaded lot for the kids to run around, as well as a fire pit for s’mores, campfire songs, and time spent together with those you love most. Any time you want, walk down to the lake by way of a community foot path to enjoy the serenity of Deep Creek Lake or hop in the car to hit up area restaurants and family-favorite activities. Book your stay today!
