About this property

Play-A-Way Chalet | Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Pool Access

Welcome to Play-A-Way Chalet, your Deep Creek Lake escape where fun, comfort, and family-friendly amenities come together in a beautiful wooded setting. This spacious four-bedroom, three-bathroom vacation home is tucked in the sought-after Deep Creek Highlands community—known for its scenic trails, playgrounds, tennis courts, and now, its newly renovated and reopened community pool—just a short walk from your front door!

Inside, the chalet features a warm and inviting great room with cathedral ceilings, rich wood accents, and a cozy stone fireplace—perfect for movie nights or game day gatherings. The open-concept layout makes it easy for everyone to stay connected whether you’re prepping meals in the well-equipped kitchen, lounging on the comfy sectional, or enjoying a meal at the large dining table.

With four well-appointed bedrooms and three full bathrooms, there's plenty of space for everyone to relax after a day of lake adventures. Step outside and you’ll find multiple outdoor living areas—sip your morning coffee on the deck surrounded by trees, unwind in the private hot tub under the stars, or gather for a sunset barbecue with the gas grill.

Downstairs, the lower-level family room adds even more space to spread out, featuring a pool table, wet bar, and a large Smart TV—perfect for evening fun after a day on the water or trails.

Just minutes from Wisp Resort and Deep Creek Lake State Park, the location puts you close to year-round activities like skiing, boating, hiking, and golf. And when you're ready to cool off, the walkable community pool is a family favorite—especially for guests traveling with kids!

Play-A-Way Chalet offers all the essentials for a carefree getaway, plus those thoughtful extras like a full laundry area, Wi-Fi, and space to spread out. Whether you're looking to explore, relax, or spend quality time together, this mountain escape has everything you need to make memories that last.

Book your stay at Play-A-Way Chalet and enjoy the perfect Deep Creek Lake vacation—steps from the pool, trails, and all the fun.
