You can also fly into Reagan International Airport (DCA) or Dulles International Airport (IAD). From any of these options, you will have to either rent a car or schedule a shuttle to get out to the lake (please read below for more information).

Once you arrive, we have organized transportation for the wedding day. Check back here as we get closer to the big day for more information on these services. Bus pick ups will be from central points, we aimed to accommodate as many guests as possible. If your rental home or hotel is not listed as a pick up point, please feel free to meet at Suites at Silver Tree or the Blakeslee club house (30 N Blakeslee Rd, Oakland, MD 21550).
In lieu of Uber/Lyft and taxis, there is a shuttle service that uses its own app! Please use the attached link to download the app where you can reserve rides in advance, or schedule rides in real time once you need a ride - just like Uber. Please note that there may be additional wait times if rides aren’t scheduled in advance because of demand around event times. Side note: your ride will also come with his two black labs as companions during the trip! please keep this in mind while making your travel plans.
Below you will find our transportation schedule and the link to the Deep Creek Shuttle! If any adjustments are made to this plan you will be notified promptly.
