Quick Facts
Why Deep Creek Lake & Garrett County
Oakland sits in Garrett County near Deep Creek Lake, Maryland’s largest freshwater lake at 3,900 acres, alongside Swallow Falls State Park and its 53-foot Muddy Creek Falls — the highest free-falling waterfall in the state. Broadford Lake Park nearby hosts community events like the Mountain Maryland Dragon Boat Festival, adding a lively local touch to the wider outdoor scene.
Sweet Springs stands out even in this glamping-rich region for its genuinely unusual accommodation options — a lovingly renovated bus, a yurt, and a converted hayloft, each offering a completely different kind of stay on the same property.
