Western Maryland is Maryland's best kept secret, Garrett County is Maryland's 3rd least populated
County. According to the Maryland Office of Tourism, Garrett County’s increases even outpaced
Maryland’s tourism growth. For the first nine months of fiscal 2018, Maryland grew sales tax revenues
specific to tourism 2 percent, while Garrett County’s was 5.5 percent.
“Tourism is an economic engine for Garrett County and we are pleased to see that this engine continues to churn out additional revenues and business for our
community." said Nicole Christian, President & CEO Garrett County Chamber of Commerce
Garrett County is a natural wonder, boasting three Maryland records: the highest free-falling waterfall, the largest freshwater lake, and the highest surveyed point.
The rural and mountainous terrain make it perfect for hiking and spending time in nature. There are numerous state parks throughout the county, most with rivers,
waterfalls, trails, and camping space! Deep Creek Lake is definitely one of our area’s gems, offering a cooling rush to our summer season and a frozen beauty
during the winter. Another charm to Garrett County is the small-town local culture. Towns neighboring Deep Creek Lake to the north and south seem to have their own identity and way of life. Oakland is the county seat, located south of McHenry and Deep Creek Lake. Brick sidewalks line
shops and cafes and meander through town, leading past museums and the old train station. Oakland is a hub for unique antique shops and community events.
Most famous is the Autumn Glory Festival, a week-long celebration including parades through downtown and events scattered all across the county. Accident
and Friendsville are small towns located to the north of the lake, both offering their own brand of culture.
Garrett County is in the perfect location for visitors as it’s only a few hours from several major cities in different states. The proximity encourages both last minute
getaways and week-long stays without the hassle of complicated travel plans.
While Deep Creek Lake may be the best known feature, Garrett County has nearly endless qualities and adventures just waiting to be explored.
