Deep Creek Lake is located in the center of Garrett County, the westernmost county in Maryland. We’re home to farmers, families, retirees, small business owners, second home owners, young and old folks, and thousands of kiddos. We’ve got an active county community with a busy events calendar and many successful non-profit organizations. We’re also a getaway destination to over 1 million visitors a year. Our spring and summer seasons come a little late, fall comes early and winter sometimes sticks around for too long. But we love it here!

When it comes to photographing families and groups here at Deep Creek, it’s about more than just pretty pictures. I find a bit of responsibility in making sure that you have a good time (outside of picture-taking) when you’re here, so in 2021, I started including personalized Deep Creek Things To Do Lists for all my groups! Insider tips, restaurant and activity suggestions…I find such joy in sharing all that Deep Creek has to offer!
