Name: Wanderlust | Bedrooms: 6 | Bathrooms: 4 | Sleeps: 14 | Access: Lake Area, Ski Area | Dogs Welcome Max. 2 | MUST BE 24+ YEARS TO RENT | Free WIFI Provided
DESCRIPTION: From the top of Wisp Mountain, Wanderlust earns its name. Ski trails and hiking paths begin steps from the front door, while the lake, golf, a mountain coaster, local shops, and beloved restaurants are all just minutes away. Bring the whole crew, even your furry family members are welcome!
Inside, the main level sets the tone. A dramatic wall of windows pulls the mountains right into the room; morning light, wandering wildlife, and some of the finest sunsets Deep Creek has to offer all unfold from the comfort of the living space. The fully equipped kitchen, fireside dining area, and open lounge flow into one another naturally, so whoever's cooking never misses a moment of the conversation. Downstairs is where the nights take on a life of their own. The lower level is the true heart of the house with a custom bar, an oversized TV built for big games and movie marathons, a pool table, wall mounted Connect 4, and ring toss. Once the sun goes down, this is where everyone ends up. Up in the loft, the kids have claimed their own kingdom. A shuffleboard table, retro gaming consoles, karaoke, and a children's board-game table mean rainy afternoons turn into full-blown tournaments.
Outside, the property opens up into something special. Dine al fresco on the deck, spread out on the lawn for cornhole, Kan Jam, or giant Yahtzee, or settle into the chairs with a front-row view of the fading sunset. Fire up the BBQ, ease into the private hot tub, and end the evening around the fire pit as stars emerge over the ridgeline. The community trail just outside the door leads straight to Wisp Resort's slopes and Fork Run's 550-acre nature preserve.
Fresh powder in winter. Sunlit trails in summer. Wanderlust is the one you book first and remember longest.
