The Red Barn Inn is a beautiful and iconic 10 acre farm located in the heart of Deep Creek Lake. Established in the early 1800's, the Harvey Farm was a dairy farm for more than a century, changing to a potato farm in the 1900's, providing potatoes to Snyder's of Hanover. In 2002, the 10,000 sq foot barn was transformed into a classic, rustic, but elegant wedding and events venue and the inn itself was created to host the entire wedding party for a weekend of celebration. After many years of happy use, the 10 bedroom inn was renovated from top to bottom this year and every room was professionally decorated in the modern farmhouse style. Love shiplap? It is EVERYWHERE! All 10 bedrooms feature king size beds, private bathrooms, gas fireplaces with barn beam mantles, and cable television. They were designed for a comfortable and calm experience and each and every one is different. Your guests may chose between any of the three first story rooms, one handicap accessible with a roll in shower and a twin sleeper sofa, one with a queen sleeper sofa in addition to the standard king size bed and one elegantly designed for a bride and her bridesmaids to prepare for her wedding day. The second floor features five bedrooms with a breathtaking view of the on-property pond and two with a lovely rear meadow view. A large gas fireplace greets you as you enter the front door into the shared great room. There are multiple spaces to read, chat, or watch a movie and a full kitchen for meal preparation. Are you planning a wonderful family meal? The great room has a dining table large enough to share with all of your favorite people. The outside is expansive! Fields to wander through, a stocked pond to fish in, and a huge space for front porch sitting! Use our huge red barn as the perfect photo backdrop. Slide down the sledding hill or create the perfect s'more fireside under a 300 year old tree. Walk down to the Par-3 golf course and play at no cost, grab your rackets and hit the neighborhood tennis courts or spend your days lakeside fishing or swimming in the lake. The choices are endless at the Red Barn Inn. Waterfront Greens Deep Creek Lake is an idyllic vacation destination with so much to do, see, and discover— in all four seasons! While the ‘star of the show’ is undoubtedly the lake itself— with boating and tubing and restaurants on the water— the fun and adventure does not end there. The Deep Creek Lake area is home to many popular state parks (including the fan-favorite Swallow Falls State Park, boasting MD’s tallest waterfall), golf courses (like the award-winning Lodestone course), adventure sport destinations (like the mountaintop whitewater rafting course at the Adventure Sports Center International), and so much more. Wisp Resort, located in the central lake area, is well-known for skiing, snowboarding and snow tubing in the winter, but should be on your ‘to visit’ list, no matter the season. They’ve also got several golf courses, ropes courses, mountain biking trails, and even an outdoor mountain coaster, just to name a few of their activity highlights. For families with children, you’ll want to check out the interactive Discovery Center at Deep Creek State park for a fun (and educational!) dive into our local biosphere and animal life (and check out the sandy beachfront at the state park, while you are there). Later, the mini golf at Funland, the Arcade at Fun Unlimited, and the Deep Creek Ninja Factory are sure-fire hits with all kids. In summer, you won't want to miss taking a trip to The Lakeside Creamery for their famed— and fabulous!— homemade ice cream. We’ve got breweries (Mountain State Brewing Company, Short Story Brewing Company), artisans (Simon Pearce Glassblowing, Deep Creek Lavender Farm, and Firefly Farms), horseback riding (Circle R Ranch and Western Trails) and outdoor adventures, aplenty (Monkey Business Ropes Course, All Earth Eco Tours). Then, at the end of the day, if you want a peaceful place to relax with an amazing lake view and a cocktail, we’ve got places for that, too (Firewater Kitchen + Bar, the Harbor Bar, the Honi Honi). Deep Creek has something for everyone!
