A gateway to untamed Maryland

Surrounded by towering forests and shimmering lakes, Oakland is a laid-back town in the heart of Garrett County. A true all-season destination, it lures sunseekers, snow bunnies and leaf peepers alike. Whether you want to whitewater raft down the Youghiogheny River, hit the slopes at Wisp Resort or simply relax on the deck of your Oakland vacation rentals hideaway, it's an enchanting slice of Maryland. You'll also be an easy hop from Deep Creek Lake, a year-round outdoor playground offering swimming, fishing, boating, hiking and more.

Discover Oakland's flourishing arts scene

With its scenic setting and free-spirited lifestyle, Oakland is a hotspot for artists. Check out local talent at the Spruce Forest Artisan Village, where you can wander around historic workshops and chat to resident artists. The Simon Pearce Glassblowing Workshop is another highlight, treating visitors to demonstrations, workshops and a colorful gift store. While nearby Broadford Lake is a favorite with locals, Deep Creek Lake steals the spotlight. It serves up endless family fun, from kayaking and sailing to jet skiing and speed boating.

Leaf peeping in Oakland

Every fall, Oakland explodes in a sea of reds, yellows and golds. In fact, it's regularly named one of the best places in America to admire fall foliage. The town celebrates with the annual Autumn Glory Festival, a 5-day celebration filled with music, art, parades, street stalls and, of course, fiery fall colors. Summer is also a busy time, especially over the US school holidays. Planning a family vacation?
