Why the Owner Chose McHenry
Wisp is a 4 season resort, and there is always something to do. After renting other properties for years, we decided to buy a place of your own.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhouse Condominium
We are in the heart of McHenry, close to Wisp Mountain, the whitewater rafting center and the Mountain coaster. We are also a 5 minute drive from the grocery store, restaurants, urgent care center, shops and the liquor store.
Owner's Map of McHenry
We are a family of four...We reside about 4 hours from our Deep Creek home, but try to get out there as much as possible.
