Greetings from Deep Creek Lake-Swallow Falls-March real estate

Greetings from Deep Creek Lake,

Warm weather has set in (we hope:-)) here in Deep Creek. We’ve had some nice days recently, helping us locals shake off the cabin fever. The local marinas are on the move – putting docks in the water and servicing boats for the 2014 summer season. This photo was taken from my office window on April 2^nd. There was actually still some ice on the water in a few places. It also happens to be my husband Bob’s former boat, which is now one of Deep Creek Marina’s service fleet.

One of our favorite local attractions here in Deep Creek is Swallow Falls State Park. This afternoon was gorgeous and in the 60’s so we took the opportunity to slip away from the office and take our 16-month old son Griffin to see the waterfalls for the first time. He was in awe of the gorgeous Muddy Creek Falls and enjoyed walking the pine needle trails (as well as picking & throwing sticks of course!). Remember to bring your walking shoes on your next visit to tour this beautiful park with multiple waterfalls.

A couple events coming up to mention…

The Garrett County Health Fair will be held this Saturday, April 12^th at the CARC (Community Aquatic & Recreational Center) on the Garrett College campus. The event will be held from 8:30-1:00 and along with health vendors there will be speaking presentations, free preventive health screenings, information displays and demonstrations and a food distribution by the Maryland Food Bank. Admission is free to the community!

An Easter Egg Hunt is being held Saturday, April 19^th from 10:00-12:00 at the Spruce Forest Artisan Village in Grantsville right beside the infamous country Penn Alps restaurant. Registration is at 10:00 and the egg hunt begins at 10:30. There are three age categories with over 1000 filled eggs to find. This is also a free event!

Below are statistics from our MLS system from the activity that took place in our market in March 2014. The indicators are looking up, setting the stage for a great year in real estate.

The link below will take you to 6 of our new listings, ranging from a cozy log home in the woods, a lake access home with a dock slip, a beautiful waterfront contemporary home to a slope front & water view lodge that will woo you! Be sure to click through the photos and visual tours of each and if you’d like to arrange a time to preview any homes now is a good time to do it. http://mrislistings.mris.com/DE.asp?ID=57020431609

Greetings from Deep Creek Lake-Deep Creek Dunk-January MLS Stats

Greetings from Deep Creek Lake-Deep Creek Dunk-January MLS Stats. Fluffy powder lined the deck of our home this morning with steady snow dumping throughout the night and into the morning tapering off around noon. Wisp Resort had perfect conditions today as the snow making guns were turned off and shin-high powder was on with light crowds. 14 trails are open along with the tubing park and snow making operations are marching ahead to ensure that the mountain will be completely open by the Christmas Holidays. I hope you have your lodging booked in anticipation of enjoying some fresh powder or perfectly groomed corduroy for the 2013/2014 winter sports season. It’s time to get here and release all that pent-up adrenaline!

Gorgeous corduroy! Griffin’s encounter with Santa, not impressed but tolerable!
