Deep Creek Lake is surrounded by a Buffer Strip of land owned and protected by the state of Maryland. The Maryland DNR regulates any cutting of trees and the general use of this land to protect the natural integrity and beauty of the lake’s shoreline. No permanent structures may be constructed on the buffer strip.
