About this place
Lake View Retreat w/ Hot Tub, Walk to Wisp Resort!
While our home DOES NOT have a Dock, you can rent Kayaks and Stand Up Paddle boards from The Aquatic Center in Deep Creek who will drop off and pick up directly at the home!!!! They provide life vests as well! Located at the shallow end of the Mc Henry cove, we frequently do Kayaking, SUP, and fishing directly out the back of the home!

Welcome to your happy place “At Wisps End”! Tastefully decorated throughout, the home features an open layout with stunning lake views. From the front porch, watch the slopes and riders on the Wisp Mountain Coaster before you walk over to join in the fun! After a day of fun, unwind and watch your favorite movie on the wall-mounted flatscreen Smart TV featuring Roku in the great room with a crackling fire in the background. Connect to your existing streaming services or enjoy free programming through Roku. For your convenience, this home also offers free WIFI. Recently updated, the kitchen features granite counters, fully stocked kitchen with spices, Keurig and full size coffee pot, tons of cabinet space and a large breakfast bar with ample seating. Upstairs, the spacious master bedroom retreat will delight you with amazing views of Deep Creek Lake that will greet you each morning. Vaulted ceilings and lots of natural light make this a welcoming place to relax. Watch a movie in bed on the flat-screen TV with Roku remote after a busy day at the lake/slopes. You will find another bedroom with a king bed on the upper level. Decorated with your comfort in mind, a good night's sleep is guaranteed. The lower level features a full sized pool table (with lake views) and an electric fireplace for extra ambiance and warmth. Watch a movie or game on the wall mounted flat-screen TV with Roku remote. Step outside the lower level patio and roast s'more on the open fire pit, grill your favorite foods, and unwind in the steaming outdoor hot tub.
Conveniently located, you can walk to the lodge at Wisp Ski and Golf Resort. They offer year round activities that include skiing/snowboarding, snow tubing, mountain biking, ice skating, mountain coaster rides, golf, and zip lines/ropes course.
When you are ready to head out and explore all that Deep Creek has to offer, you will find that restaurants, shops, mini golf, marinas and more are within a five-minute drive. Be sure to add a stop at Swallow Falls State Park to your itinerary - it is home to three waterfalls and miles of hiking trails.

Meet the Host
We are the Milazzo family and we welcome you to our beautiful lake view retreat! I have been a full time Real Estate agent in Northern Virginia for the past 20 years and my husband, Michael, is a Software Engineer. We have a son, Benji, who was born in May 2014. We visited Deep Creek Lake in Fall of 2019 and knew immediately that this is a place we wanted to keep coming back to. There are so many activities to do and every person we met here is extremely nice and courteous. It's been a lifelong dream of ours to have a home that overlooks the water so "At Wisps End" was a dream turned reality. We are a very active family that love to hike, sail, fish, ski, and travel. We are big foodies and love trying new things. We are excited to share our happy place with our guests and truly strive to go above and beyond to make sure your stay is memorable. If you need activity suggestions or food recommendations, please do not hesitate to reach out!
