Best Weekend Getaways to Escape DC Drama

Deep Creek makes the list:

“7. Deep Creek Lake – If you’re looking for a get away that will allow you to be out of cell service for 48 hours, check out Deep Creek Lake. Just two hours from DC in Garrett County, Maryland, Deep Creek is the largest freshwater lake in the state. Being out in the woods will give you a break from the city heat to swim and fish, and boat, tubing, and jet ski rentals are in abundance. The surrounding State Park is a lesser known tourist attraction so renting a house by the water shouldn’t be too difficult, and is a not too expensive option if you want to bring a gaggle of friends. Check out the Honi-Honi Bar to drink right on the bar (there’s even a boat dock to hitch your rental) plus they have karaoke on Thursdays and live music on the weekends.”
