Things to Do
Deep Creek Lake is a true four-season destination in the mountains of Western Maryland. Ski and snow tube in winter, boat and swim all summer, and hike to Maryland's tallest waterfall in between - all within a short drive of Peace at Last in McHenry.

- Trout & bass fishing
- Quiet hikes through the color
