Lodging Review – Inn at Deep Creek
Not the first stay in a hotel but certainly one of the better places to stay! Read more about our experience at the Inn at Deep Creek in Oakland, Maryland. This was a short job and I was currently working back in Michigan. The job was in a remote area of Maryland, closer to the WV border. It was a beautiful little resort town that got pretty dang busy during the summer, probably the winter too! No campgrounds close by that had any openings and the job wasn’t long enough, about 3 months, to warrant finding a home rental. This was before Airbnb too so, finding an extended…

Beacon RV Park – a campground review
CAMPGROUND REVIEW This week I wanted to do something a little different and offer a campground review of a place that we have stayed. Often when we are searching it is hard to gauge what type of park you are reserving. Many websites are very basic with just contact information. Some have no website at all. For my sanity I am going to start in chronological order so (hopefully) I don’t miss anywhere. I’ll focus on lodging for the time being but may expand it in to what types of things are available to do, ease of getting around in a big vehicle, store options, short trips within an hour of…
