Pros: mix of terrain, beautiful location Cons: remoteness
Wisp is the only ski resort in Maryland, and just barely in Maryland at that. It's located on Deep Creek Lake, which is tucked up in the panhandle area of western Maryland, bordering on West Virginia and ...
Pros: Good for casual skiers, with lots of long-wide runs. Good weekend destination for Pittsburgh/DC. Cons: Expert runs too short for incredibly serious skiers. Too far from Pittsburgh/DC for day-skiing
I am a very casual, recreational skier. Not a hardcore speed and adreneline junky. I just want to get out there and have a little fun and get some exercise. Wisp is a good choice for somebody like me. It is also a good ...
Pros: deep creak lake, great skiing, rooms in resort are suites for the price of a discounted single room Cons: hotel was build in the '70s
Hello, today I will be rating Deep Creek Lake.
Lets starting rating!
CLOSENESS TO AN AIRPORT- 1 hour away from CBE (Cumberland Regional) CBE is served by US Airways. They have hourly flights to their hub in PIT (Pittsburg)
Pros: Nice skiing nice people Cons: Not for the truly insane but still fun
If you are looking for a thrill this is not the place to go. Though the slopes are not too challenging, they are still a lot of fun. Coming from the lodge in the front are the two hardest slopes. Unfortunately they are very short and the wait for the ski...
mrkstvns is completely accurate in his description of Wisp Resort. I was surprised at how well his opinion was written. (Write like a reporter.) He forgot to mention my favorite reason for returning to Wisp. It's beginner slope. I've been to four...
Pros: Good Terrain Variety, Snowboard Park Cons: Old, Slow Lifts, Back Side Often Closed
Being a resident of the Mid-Atlantic, my access to GOOD skiing/snowboarding is very limited. So, I usually spend the winter trying to save enough money to make a trip up to Vermont, or out to Colorado. However, in the meantime, I usually spend a...
Pros: beautiful area with wonderful surroundings Cons: not much night-life
Deep Creek Lake, Maryland is a beautiful area. However, it's not Telluride. If you are a die hard skier who won't even touch a single black diamond and only skis the most challenging slope of the hill, than don't come to Wisp. For a family who goes...
Pros: Beautiful area. COLD, SNOWY. Cons: Not a place for beginners. Sort of outdated.
We went to Wisp on Jan 30 to Feb 1 - a short "winter vacation". My wife (36) had skied once before, a long time ago. My 2 kids and I had never skied before, so this was a new experience for us.
WISP is a fun trip for friends and family. It's a good safe place to learn how to ski, to learn how to mogul, and to learn how to carve. It's setup for snowboarders with several half-pipes and mogul-y runs.
I regularly visit Wisp ski resort at least once a year. I have been fortunate enough to stay with a local as well as the Will o the Wisp hotel as well as a villa alongside the mountain.
The hotel is well appointed, well staffed, and some rooms have...
Maryland is not the first place when you think of skiing or winter sports for that matter. But actually it is not that bad, i have been out West for those of you guys who love my writing work (joke) you should read my article. Anyway i have seen real...
Pros: cabins available to rent in the area, decent beginner slope Cons: not much help for beginning skiers
Wisp and Deep Creek Lake are beautiful, and the ski resort seemed well maintained. The amount of snowfall in the area was incredible. The only problem is that, for a beginning skier like me, there was not a lot of help. I visited Wisp in January 2001,...
Pros: clean, fun, friendly people Cons: some lift lines get long
I went on vacation last winter to this resort and I must say that i had the best time of my life. This resort had so much. If you were a beginer they had slopes for you intermediate they had that to. For the big hot shots out there they have something...
