About this property

High-Skis' Villa | Chalet on Top of Wisp Mountain

Perched on a mountaintop, High-Skis' Villa is a well-appointed log home that is just minutes from area activities. Within less than 1.5 miles, you will find white water rafting and ski slope access at the Adventure Sports Center as well as Lodestone Golf Course.

The spacious interior has an open layout that is highlighted by soaring cathedral ceilings. A wall of windows is the focal point of the great room offering scenic views that change with the seasons. Gather around the floor-to-ceiling gas fireplace to warm up after a day on the slopes. You can swap stories about your day or simply sink into the leather sectional sofa to watch TV.

Outfitted with stainless steel appliances, the kitchen is well-equipped when you want to make homemade meals. You can gather at the dining table and there is additional seating at the breakfast bar. Also, doors open to the deck when you want to eat outdoors and take advantage of the gas grill.

Retreat to the main level primary suite when you need a little quiet time. It has a king bed and a TV, so you will be completely comfortable. You will love having your own private balcony where you can enjoy fresh mountain air and the sounds of nature.

Upstairs, the loft gives you extra living space. Grab a seat at one of the pub tables while friends rack 'em up on the pool table.

Head to the lower level family room to watch your favorite movie with Surround Sound. The gas fireplace provides a cozy ambiance, and you can keep snacks and drinks handy at the wet bar.

Also on the lower level is a primary suite with a queen bed, TV and access to the patio. There are two bedrooms on this floor as well ~ one with a double bed and the other with a duobunk. Each is decorated with a good night's sleep in mind.

The exterior has plenty to offer your family from the outdoor fire pit to the hot tub, equipped with a stereo and LED lighting. The screened porch provides will be a popular spot for coffee each morning.

Located in the Highline II community, easy access to the slopes is nearby along with white water rafting at the Adventure Sports Center.

You can take a short drive to Wisp Resort's lodge to try snow tubing, the mountain coaster or cross-country skiing. Throughout the rest of the year, Wisp offers a wide variety of activities including golf, ziplines, mountain biking, Segway tours, summer concerts and much more!

The convenient location puts you within five to ten-minutes from restaurants, shops, mini golf and the grocery store. Stop by a marina to rent a boat and spend a summer day cruising in the sunshine.

Deep Creek Lake State Park is a definite must-do for your itinerary. The sandy beach is a great place to swim, and there are kayak, canoe and paddleboard rentals too. Multiple playgrounds will please the little ones in your group! Plus, the park's Discovery Center has lots of kid-friendly exhibits that highlight the area's environment and wildlife. During the fall months, take time to explore miles of hiking trails that lead you through vibrant foliage.

A great secluded place in the midst of the crowds.
We were overall pleased with our stay. The main reason we picked the property because of its location of less than a mile from the Adventures Sports Center International which ended up being closed. It was also not as expensive as lake front properties. We were less than a 5-10 minute drive to the marina area where all the activities take place and a three minute drive from WISP resort. The property can technically sleep 10 but when we arrived the 10th bed was a blow up mattress without a pump (we had a total of 8 so it did not matter to us). If you have an array of sleeping teenagers , tweens and seniors and parents in their 40's like us you should be aware there are two bedrooms which can sleep two couples. One bedroom which can sleep in the same bed two children or one adult and one bedroom that can sleep another two children and one adult. One of he bedrooms that can sleep two children and one adult is set up as bunk beds. The jacuzzi was not working, but we got a refund of $50 for each day we stayed which was nice but the other part of the reason we picked the house was to enjoy the jacuzzi knowing night life with a family after long days in the sun needs a place to have more quiet fun until the day ends.

Good to read reviews
We have been going to Deep Creek with our children for over 20 years. We've stayed at 8 different homes and many several times for a few of them. We've had great experiences at all of them until this house. This was a new one for us. The pictures were accurate and it looked beautiful. What you can't know is the bugs in the house. Our son was covered with bug bites in the bunk beds after the first night. Not sure if bed bugs or not. The shingles were falling and hanging off the one roof. The air condition never worked properly and was 90 degrees outside and so was inside the house. The directions never helped us to get any relief from the heat. Very difficult for my 75 year old parents. The screens were never installed in the sun room and we couldn't even enjoy that space. The plexiglass was still in and it was scorching in that space and so many bugs. The hot tub took forever (4 hours) to warm up, lights worked inside it and then didn't. Very limited supplies for guests. Definitely bring extra towels and other necessary amenities. The ones provided very thin and cheap. The living room couch back pillows were falling off and very uncomfortable to sit on. Felt like we were robbed and walked away from this vacation with such disappointment and were embarrassed by our choice of house. Listed as premier chalet, it is not. I hope the notes we left will be taken seriously by Taylor-Made. First time working with them. Never again. We hope future guests will never experience what we did.

Amazing!
We loved this place so much, we are already planning to return in the summer. Note: The only negative is you need to supply a vacuum or broom. Everything else was so clean and so well appointed!
