No Deadlines - Lake fun for families and friends!

This property is NOT Pet-Friendly.

Welcome to "No Deadlines"!
This was a weekend house originally started in 1969 and completed in 1970 by a family of four consisting of a husband & wife with their two small boys. They did all the work themselves on the weekends from start to finish with the help of the husband’s father.
Nestled in a quiet cove off the main channel of Rock Creek, No Deadlines was extensively remodeled starting in 2024 and completed in 2025 by the oldest of the two sons and his wife. Originally the house consisted of two bedrooms and one bath with a low height basement or storage. The remodel included having the upper portion of the house raised to create more ceiling room in the basement so it could be finished for living quarters. The upstairs dining room, the downstairs bath and the lake storage room all were added on at this time as well. Remaining in the family but creating an environment for others to enjoy just as they did so many years ago.

With all the business in the world, it’s nice to be able to relax at a quiet shaded place on the lake and get back to the simple things in life such as family and friends and forget about any deadlines that may be waiting back at the office.
We truly hope you enjoy the lake fun, family, friends and relaxation as much as we do and create as many memories as possible.

No Deadlines is an amazing stay at a perfect location on the lake

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second stay here and this one was even better than the first with the addition of new floats and two paddle boards for use. The whole family came this time and there was plenty of space for everyone. House was very clean and supplied well. Only suggestions would be screens on windows so you can enjoy outside temps with no bugs and a window shade for the upstairs bathroom for privacy.

No Deadlines lived up to the name

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at No Deadlines. The house was spotless, beautifully remodeled, and sat in a quiet little cove with easy water access right off the dock. The layout worked great for our family with teens: the walkout basement was set up for our teenage boys, the two upstairs bedrooms were for the adults, and the upstairs deck with the dining table became our favorite spot for meals with the lake view.A nice bonus that wasn't mentioned in the listing: two paddleboards and a double kayak were on the property and ready to use. One thing to note for future renters: no life jackets were provided, so plan to bring your own. The charcoal grill worked great for grilling out as a family. Don't forget to bring a lighter or matches.Management was easy to work with. I texted a couple of times during the stay and they were quick to respond.We'd happily come back. Thanks for sharing the property with us.

This property is beautiful! It was perfect for our girls weekend. So many of us kept saying that we wanted to just move in because it is just a beautiful home. The stairs to the water are fairly steep, but doable and worth it in our opinion. We loved being in a quieter section of the lake, more relaxing and calm water. This home is close to a convenient store and Trident Marina, for quick options for food and entertainment. We went to Trident for dinner and had the best time with live music, and it was only 12 minutes away. I will definitely be back! Thank you for a wonderful place to relax and have girl time.
