Deep Creek Lake in Maryland
Deep Creek Lake, which has a lake for boating, fishing and swimming and a mountainous ski resort, is a four-season vacation destination, says Betsy Spiker Holcomb, a real estate agent with Long & Foster in Deep Creek Lake.
“This is a unique area with the lake right at the base of ski resort,” Holcomb says. “We have some retirees who live here six months of the year, but most of our buyers are families with middle-aged parents and active kids. They learn to ski, to water-ski and wake-board, and then they want to come back every year.”
With the Memorial Day holiday approaching, Maryland Natural Resources Police officers will be stepping up enforcement of state maritime laws as part of National Safe Boating Week, May 16-22.
Late May begins the annual boating boom and the four-month stretch in which the majority of boating accidents in Maryland occur.
Last Memorial Day weekend, the state recorded eight boating accidents and two fatalities.
“For many people, Memorial Day weekend marks the first time they’ll be on the water since last fall,” said Col. George F. Johnson IV, NRP superintendent. “It’s important to review procedures, do a bow-to-stern inspection, and make sure all required safety gear is on board and in good working order.”
From today through Memorial Day, NRP officers along with allied agencies will be conducting saturation patrols to intercept impaired boaters and educate the public about best practices.
Maryland boasts a flotilla of more than 178,500 registered powerboats and sailboats, and countless smaller watercraft that ply the Chesapeake Bay, the Atlantic coastline, and lakes and rivers.

The Channel Swimming Association requires solo swimmers to complete a 6 Hour swim in 60 degree or less water in order to attempt a solo crossing of the English Channel. On Sunday, May 10th, 2015, I did just that!
Check out this blog from a woman who completed her 6-hour, cold-water swim last Sunday in Deep Creek to qualify to cross the English Channel.
If you are at all familiar with Deep Creek Lake and our mountainous region, then you may know that our seasons tend to run a little different than most areas. While most regions get to experience Spring in March and April, our Spring starts closer to May. Once it finally comes to bloom, it is nothing short of spectacular. It’s the simple acting of waiting. Now the wait is over and it’s time to call to book your family’s spring getaway at the lake! Docks are in the water and most marinas are now open and ready to start the boating rental season. Rent a pontoon to take the whole family out and experience Deep Creek from the “inside perspective”! Truly a delight! The trees have buds, wildlife is scampering about, and the mountains are turning a beautiful lush green! Don’t think that there is anything to do? Hiking at one of the many state parks, golfing at our top notch golf courses, boat rides, horseback riding, and our list of activities is long and full of all kinds of family fun!
