Trader's Coffee House

Published: June 5, 2019

Right below Brenda's...great for coffee drinks, breakfast and lunch. Some gluten-free options too! You can also order cookies, pies and dessert rolls. This is definitely a Deep Creek favorite!

EVENTS: One of the best events in our area is happening this weekend! Christmas in the Village in Grantsville (in the northern part of the county, 20 minutes from the top of the lake) is something we all look forward to every year. A two-day event that welcomes families, kids, couples, people of all ages to enjoy a kick-off to the holiday season. With mostly outdoor activities and a little step back in time, there’s a tree lighting, artisan village, shopping, musical performances…and be sure to stop at @littlecrossingspantry @thecornucopiacafe and Pen Alps Restaurant while you’re there too! A truly magical time in a wonderful place. Here are some pictures from our times at Christmas in the Village…#deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #fortheloveofdeepcreek #marylandgetaway

LODGING: One of the coolest parts of my job as a Deep Creek photographer is seeing allll the beautiful houses we have here! From small and charming to large and lavish, there’s such a variety of houses, many of which are vacation rentals. If you’re planning a Deep Creek visit and are looking for a house to stay in, I recommend checking options over at Deep Creek’s largest rental companies @deepcreekvacations @deepcreekmd and @red.barn.vacations 👍🏻🏡 #localinatouristtown #fortheloveofdeepcreek #bootsontheground #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #visitmaryland #marylandgetaway

FOOD AND DRINK: And igloos! It’s time to light up the season! @mountain_state_brewing_dcl has the igloos back for another season, and they’re decorated with lights! Reservations started and I got a glimpse of the setup this week. Head to their website and click the blue reservations tab to grab an igloo now…these are a hot ticket item! #fortheloveofdeepcreek #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #localinatouristtown #marylandgetaway #mountainmaryland #dinnerinanigloo #igloodining

DID YOU KNOW!? It’s been snowing all day here in the #tundraofmaryland so I thought I’d share some quick facts on SNOW + DEEP CREEK. ❄️❄️❄️ 🤩 #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #deepcreekphotographer #jessicafikephotography #fortheloveofdeepcreek #marylandgetaway #mountainmaryland #marylandsnow #fortheloveofsnow

What’s your vote? Happy ferns or happy trees!? 🤩🥰 Thanks for sharing these scenes from your snowy hike today @mkmsheaffer 💪🏻 #tundraofmaryland #fortheloveofdeepcreek #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #mountainmaryland #marylandgetaway

COFFEE: Who loves a good pastry or baked good with their coffee!? I DO! 🙋🏼‍♀️ And anytime there’s a dessert bar or brownie available at Canoe on the Run, it’s really hard for me not to get one. Check out Canoe for breakfast, lunch or just a coffee and baked good. 👍🏻 #localinatouristtown #fortheloveofdeepcreek #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #marylandgetaway

Had a little @mtnmarylandmamas meeting today at @moonshadowrestaurant and the lunch scene was hoppin’ 🎉 Also, the chairs. I really appreciate the collection of chairs. 🤩 Moonshadow is in McHenry, super close to the lake, and across from Garrett College. They serve lunch and dinner, and on Sundays they’ve got brunch! Add it to your list of restaurants for your next Deep Creek visit! 👍🏻 #fortheloveofdeepcreek #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #marylandgetaway #localinatouristtown

COFFEE: It was nice seeing people sitting and chatting in @traderscoffee this morning, like the old days. Who wants to meet at the window seats for a little coffee chat sometime soon!? 🥰 My order: sometimes a latte, usually drip coffee with some cream and sugar and if it’s morning time, I definitely go for the breakfast cookie! #fortheloveofdeepcreek #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #localinatouristtown

My daughter took this picture a couple mornings ago, just outside our front door. She was capturing the sunrise, but what I see are the dark tree limbs…because our leaves are mostly gone. If you look across the mountain ridges and up into the hills, you’ll see a lot of darkness and gray. Some yellow leaves remain and even some of the “burnt” super late season leaves, but Garrett County, MD is officially ready for winter. These dark, empty tree limbs will soon be covered in snow and we’ll be excited! I’ll be out there chasing “happy trees”, Brian and Jack will be hitting the slopes, and come February, we’ll all be complaining that it’s too cold. We’ll really be complaining in March, will probably get snow in April and will hope really hard that we don’t see snow in May. Welcome to the gray season of our #tundraofmaryland …even though we’re enjoying some pleasant 60-degree days with sunshine this week! 😎 #fortheloveofdeepcreek #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd

It’s been a little quiet around here but that’s because October is a busy month! Not only are there tonssss of colorful leaves to chase and take pictures of, there’s also lots of events and outdoor activities to enjoy…along with our kiddos’ mounds of personal activities. 😅 Here’s a look into Halloween in Deep Creek + Garrett County. We enjoyed a fabulous party at @dutchs_at_silvertree and then a good old fashioned small town trick or treating in Accident. 🎃 Wow, it’s November! 😱 #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #fortheloveofdeepcreek #localinatouristtown

AUTUMN GLORY: I have so much I could and want to share regarding this week…it’s Autumn Glory week and if you’ve not been or don’t know, it’s one of the most wonderful times of year here in Deep Creek and Garrett County. The leaves are beautiful, people gather, there are turkey dinners, craft shows, farmers markets…and parades! For our family, it’s the Grand Feature Parade in downtown Oakland on Saturday that we look forward to most. I’m starting to appreciate the chairs of the parade…and am really just so thankful to be here during this season. So much more to say and share, but not enough time. See you here this week, hopefully! And head to visitdeepcreek.com and deepcreektimes.com for event lists! #fortheloveofdeepcreek #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #mountainmaryland

It’s October 6th and I haven’t shared a fall photo on here yet this season! AH! Well the leaves are turning here and I’m guessing they could be at their best next week…maybe even over Autumn Glory Weekend! I stopped in the middle of the road yesterday to take this…a beautiful green + yellow Foy Road going towards Accident. Other roads to go leaf chasing on: Rock Lodge Road, Marsh Hill and Wisp Mountain Roads, and 219 in McHenry have been showing some good pops of color this week! It’s a good time to be in our mountains…🥰🍁 #fortheloveofdeepcreek #deepcreeklake #deepcreeklakemd #mdinfocus #localinatouristtown #visitmaryland #fallinthemountains #marylandgetaway
