Description

Your very own LOG CABIN TREEHOUSE in the mountains lovingly named "Three Little Bears Cabin" at Deep Creek Lake!

Tucked among the trees on a gorgeous 1.28-acre lot in the charming Gleanings community, just 5 minutes from Deep Creek Lake, this updated 5-bedroom, 2-bath log cabin offers the perfect combination of mountain charm, privacy, space, and convenience! From the soaring ceilings and warm wood finishes to the cozy gas fireplace and expansive covered wraparound porch, there's something special about this mountain retreat. Grab your morning coffee, settle into a rocking chair, and enjoy the peaceful wooded surroundings that make you feel like you're living among the treetops!

Inside, the open living and dining areas create an inviting space for gathering with family and friends, while the updated kitchen makes entertaining a breeze. The thoughtfully designed floor plan features two bedrooms and a full bathroom on the main level, plus three additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and another spacious family room on the walkout lower level. With TWO separate living areas, a second gas stove, and plenty of room to spread out, this home is ideal for hosting family and friends or simply enjoying a little peace and quiet.

Outside is where the treehouse feeling really comes to life! The expansive covered wraparound porch, covered lower patio, hot tub, and fire pit provide wonderful spaces to relax and enjoy the outdoors in every season. The 1.28-acre property offers a fantastic combination of mature trees for privacy and grassy areas for outdoor activities. A TWO-CAR GARAGE and abundant additional parking provide plenty of room for vehicles, boats, and all your lake and mountain toys!

The Gleanings community also features a fishing pond, adding another opportunity to enjoy the outdoors right in your own neighborhood. Whether you're spending the afternoon fishing, exploring the Deep Creek area, or simply relaxing at the cabin, there's something for everyone!

Offered fully furnished and turnkey, this property is ready to enjoy from day one! With an established vacation rental history from $44k to $73k annually, it presents an exciting opportunity for buyers seeking a second home, personal mountain getaway, or investment property. Located just minutes from Deep Creek Lake, Wisp Resort, Lodestone Golf Course, restaurants, shopping, and year-round recreation, you'll love having everything nearby while still feeling tucked away in your own private retreat.

Here's something that sets this property apart from many vacation rentals! For years, this home was enjoyed exclusively as a private residence and second home, and it wasn't introduced to the short-term rental market until 2022. Even since then, the owners have prioritized personal use and intentionally maintained higher nightly rates rather than maximizing occupancy. The result is a well-cared-for mountain retreat that hasn't experienced the constant guest turnover often associated with high-volume vacation rentals.

Whether you're enjoying coffee among the treetops, soaking in the hot tub after a day on the slopes, or gathering around the fire pit under the stars, this is the kind of mountain getaway you'll look forward to returning to year after year. Come experience the magic of your very own log cabin treehouse!
