My husband (and most recently sister) and I have been going to Good Timber since a few weeks after they opened. The first time we went we thought it was too good to be true. We were sure it was just because they were new. However, for the past decade we have learned that there is no other bed and... More

This is my new definition of the perfect B & B! We recently visited for a long weekend and wished we would have stayed longer. We decided to stay in one of the less expensive rooms on the second floor and then splurge on massages on-site (Check out the picture on the massage area on their website!). The breakfast, the...

My husband and I just got back from Good Timber and I cannot say enough good things about our stay. It was one of the best weekends we ever had at a B&B! My only regret is that we did not stay for longer--I could easily have spent an entire week there. The place is lovely, decorated with all sorts... More

My husband and I recently returned from our second visit to The Good Timber B&B and we loved it so much that we hated to leave. If you want to stay in a beautiful lodge and room, in a relaxing environment close to nature, with gourmet food and good company this is the place for you. The lodge itself is... More

I have stayed at this Inn several times, and what a TREAT!!!! The people who run this B&B are so sweet and friendly. The food is to die for and the accomodations are out of this world.

It was 7 years ago that I made my first trip up to Good Timber Bed and Breakfast after reading a glowing article about this very special place featured in the Maryland Magazine. That first stay was all the rave reviews had claimed and more. Good Timber is more than just a place to stay in Deep Creek Lake. Vianne... More

I'm extremely surprised at the review "Go Anywhere Else." They must be thinking of another B&B. Good Timber is the cleanest inn I've ever stayed at. It's also GORGEOUS. All log construction, beautifully appointed. The breakfast is fabulous and we really enjoyed the variety of wine and cheeses in the evening. Vianne & Michael, our hosts, are delightful. They didn't... More

All I can say was as soon as we arrived our trip was ruined I couldn't believe someone could let their home get so disgusting none the less if you want people to pay to stay there the only positive thing was the area which made it that much harder to go back to this horrible b&b. Decent location though.

This person did not stay at Good Timber Bed & Breakfast. In May all of our guests were repeats and they all enjoyed their stay and love our place. This person either stayed somewhere else or is posting a fraudulent comment. I have asked Trip Advisor to look into this. More
