Greetings from Deep Creek Lake-CARC-April Real Estate Stats. I hope you had a great Mother’s Day Weekend with your family. Betsy and I had an event-filled weekend. First off, Betsy had the opportunity to enjoy her first Mother’s Day being a mommy! She is and has been very excited since the birth of Griffin Rhea Holcomb and I can’t tell you how proud I am of the amazing mother she is. Also, my sister and her husband came up from Virginia Beach this weekend to witness the baptism of our 5 ½ month old Griffin and to become lifelong sponsors/Godparents for him.
Although they had a quick visit, we did find time to go for a hike at Swallow Falls and take a few memorable photos. My sister and her husband had a blast witnessing the raging YoughioghenyRiver, which is pretty common in the spring here in GarrettCounty.
Little Griffin had his second swim lesson here at the new Garrett College Community Aquatic and Recreation Complex (CARC). Please check out their website and get familiar with just one more family amenity here at the lake.
The first ever Paddlin’ for PAWS went off without a snafu even though the weather was not perfect. Luckily, on race day Saturday morning the winds were down and the rain had cracked to a trickle. Stand Up Paddle Annapolis, who is a group from Annapolis, showed up with a huge group of people and some of the most cutting-edge equipment to lead the race with experience and class. Please take a moment and read about this wonderful event and see some photos I captured during the 6-mile race.
On the real estate front, you can see from our April MLS statistics that our closed/sold & pending/under contract sales are up and our inventory is down, all of which point to a recovering market. But don’t feel like you’ve missed the boat if you are still searching for a vacation home because prices haven’t begun to climb yet. We are hearing how quickly properties are moving in the DC/Balt/N.VA areas. This activity will ultimately work its way west but there are still some great bargains on all sorts of water-oriented, slope-oriented and other Deep Creek Lake vicinity homes & homesites.
The Spiker Team’s featured listing of the week is a beautiful French country home on 14 acres on the outskirts of DeepCreekLake within ~7 minutes to the DCLState Park. Three levels, large rear deck, wonderful mountain views, 2-car attached garage, 3 family rooms and the list goes on. Here is a link the visual tour: http://vt.realbiz360.com/Listing-1075650.html.
Enjoy your week and call on us anytime we can be of help in Deep Creek!
Greeting from DCL-Ramps,Mushrooms-Spring bloom-Real Estate. Spring is slowly springing! I know our East Coast folks have already experienced the wonderful spring bloom so this is old news to you, but here at the lake we are trickling into that special season where the world is reborn! Foggy Tuesday morning has a layer of cool mountain mist settling over the ramps and mint that are trying to squeak their way toward maturity. If you have never eaten or even heard of ramps I would read through these articles I wrote a few years back laying out ramp basics and more importantly how to cook them.
Next big ticket item that you may or may not have heard of is the elusive morel mushroom that looks hideous but tastes delicious! Hunters are walking the woods as we speak trying to get a “mess” of these desirable honeycomb fungi. I would suggest if you get your hands on these jewels that you try dredging them in flour and frying in butter. I’m from the south so I usually suggest frying, uh… well… everything, in peanut oil of course which is much healthier. Some interesting nicknames…dryland fish, sponge mushrooms, merkels, or my favorite, hickory chickens.
Here’s a look this morning at the cherry trees starting to flex out of their shells just off our porch overlooking the lake.
Enjoy your week and call/email me if you’d like for me to send you a new custom search of properties available that meet your criteria. 240.321.5335, Bob.Holcomb@LNF.com, www.DeepCreekLakeProperty.com
Greeting from Deep Creek Lake-Rollar Coaster-Spring Fishing. The country is reeling in confusion from the crazy spikes in heat and plunging temps over the last month of spring. It was close to 80 last week and we had snow flurries on Saturday. The daffodils have already peaked, getting us pumped for a warm-up here at the lake. It looks like we will be in the mid 50’s next week with a warm up to the lower 60’s next weekend!
I am such a big fan of certain restaurants here at the lake. Brenda’s Pizzeria is one that I have a warm place in my heart for. This pizzeria cooks up authentic New York pizza pies with deep roots from the neighborhood in and surrounding the Bronx. I just stumbled onto a new product (via their Facebook) they are offering that may be an option during a visit here when you get in a pinch. I can’t wait to sink my teeth into one of these delicious to-go pizzas!
Quote from their page…“Have you ever got all the way home after a great vacation at Deep Creek Lake and thought, “Man, I wish I had a Brenda’s Pizza right now!” Well, you can! Grab a Take & Bake before you leave! Having Brenda’s at home is easy as pie! You can choose from any of our 16″ specialty pizzas or build your own! Yummmmm!!!”
The temperatures may fluctuate a bit but the fishing bite is on at the moment. Fishing boats have been buzzing around throughout the day trying to source the best fishing hole for the spring time catch. For the most thorough, comprehensive, real time information, there is no better source than Fishing Deep Creek Lake.
Check out this nostalgic lakefront home in the Southern lake Hazelhurst area with a nice, level yard. Great skiing cove with much less boat traffic than areas North. This 4-bedroom home has 75′ of lakefront, single dock slip, sunroom and good potential for renovation-http://vt.realbiz360.com/Listing-653667.html.
Take a little time to browse through our photo gallery and get pumped on all the activities that are available to you here at the lake!
Quote of the week- “People tend to think that happiness is a stroke of luck, something that will descend like fine weather if you’re fortunate. But happiness is the result of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it, insist upon it, and sometimes even travel around the world looking for it. You have to participate relentlessly.” — Elizabeth Gilbert
This year has been fantastic for many, many reasons. My wife Betsy and I are expecting a little boy, due on New Years Eve of 2012. It’s hard to top that with anything else, but I can tell you that I am very proud of my wonderful wife,Betsy SpikerHolcomb, for being nominated for the State of Maryland’s Realtor of the Year award.
Betsy has learned a lot growing up with a Mom that has had her hands deeply submerged in the real estate business for over 35 years. That being said, Betsy has developed her own vast understanding of every specific part of this complex business, like a horologist who masterfully puts together thousands on tiny pieces to make something that runs with surgical precision. I can tell you, having been in this business less than five years, that it will take me many more years to become as knowledgeable about the intricate details that need to be understood to make clients feel secure spending large amounts of money on an investment here at Deep Creek Lake.
Betsy has served the Garrett County Board of REALTORS® (GCBR) in various capacities over the years, including secretary and director of their Board. “Her dedication and commitment in serving on the committee of Public Relations, Task Force, and Builder Liaisons have been instrumental in others becoming involved,” said a spokesperson of GCBR. Holcomb just finished a second term as the chair of the Realtors Action Committee and as a 3-year Director.
Real Estate is only a piece to a puzzle that led her to be dearly respected by her peers. She leads the county in her volunteer work and continually works selflessly as a leader in fund raising to acquire more modern equipment with the Garrett County Memorial Hospital Foundation board. She is also dedicated to the Hospital’s Board of Governors, the GCMH Life Savers Club, as a volunteer for Partners of Animal Welfare and Safety, and as a Garrett Lakes Arts Festival & Dancing Classrooms sponsor.
She is an 11th generation resident ofGarrettCounty, which is something you do not hear as much in the country anymore. She has “deep roots” here in the county and community and is respected by friends, family, colleagues, peers, and mostly by her husband. I am a bit partial to this wonderful woman, who’s a fantastic wife and soon to be the mother of our first child, but she posses a quality of well rounded perfection that makes this entire community proud of her nomination for Realtor of the Year!
