    Only one left in motion, but line was crazy long!
    Sam D.

    The ski resort is very nice but the snow tubing is not. I had a two hour segment of time to snow tube at the resort. The resort was functioning with five employees at the snow tubing area. The tubing lifts were both operational, but only one was in use and the line was 30 minutes long. I asked the manager why the second line was not in use and he said because it was so cold that they had to have the employees on 15 minute shifts. It was 4 degrees and the employees were well clothed. well, they should've done a better job scheduling because there were five employees sitting on their phones inside the lodge. Manager and staff was extremely rude to me when I asked them. If I could give this a zero out of five stars I would!!!

    Ski review! One week before this trip we rushed to order ski lift/rental passes when we realized they were almost sold out. HIGHLY recommend ordering tickets well in advance, we only had the option for a 4 hour night pass + rental. The passes were pricy, but well worth it for the nice runs. We ski once a year, we definitely aren't professionals. I really liked the green trails because they were very long and the views were spectacular. The bad thing is that EVERYONE was congested on the trails when we first got there. This was scary, but we managed to not take anyone out. As the night progressed and it was dark, I couldn't believe just how dark the slopes were. This could definitely be a safety concern, especially for people who haven't been there before.

    I can with ease cross skiing off of my bucket list at this point. My husband and I decided a couple weeks before Christmas that we would take our family on a ski trip just a quick getaway. We got a very great rate for our room and in my opinion the resort is a great bargain. We arrived a little after 5 PM and we checked in. There are several reasons I am dinging them a star one is because of the check in being so late. However the grounds are lovely! They have a good size indoor pool that you can use year round. They also have a great sitting area downstairs for families to come on down to and play board games. The rooms could definitely use some upgrading however I did feel like for $114 a night my family and I were comfortable and have plenty of space to include two TVs and two separate living areas. For me this is fine however I'm sure that most families can agree the upgrading would be a bit nice. The resort itself has a wonderful skiing set up at least I thought so. Although I didn't do much myself I tried it for a few minutes Fell and decided this isn't for me. However the Children seem to have a wonderful time. They skiied for a few hours actually. The ski instructor we had whose name escapes me was wonderful he stayed with my children and a few other people for almost an hour and was happy to give tips it was super super helpful. I really thought that you only get that kind of attention with a private lesson not a group lesson. He was great I really wish I remembered his name. This location was fantastic and so close to the water I will say I will definitely be back so that way I can enjoy deep Creek Lake

    Came here for a Winter getaway and vacation with the family. The resort hotel leaves a lot to be desired....but "Boy-oh-Boy" the snow grounds, skii school, views and skiing activities here are so much fun and not that expensive either. It snowed all weekend so that helped it really feel like we were at resort in Colorado or Utah, considering it was Maryland! :) The Ski school was fantastic! The staff were very friendly and so patient. They took their time to make sure everyone got the hang of it being beginner skiers and no one was left behind; including the highly-challenged big guy amongst mostly kids who kept falling.....not saying any names, but you can assume it was me! lol. The resort itself is bit dated and the food just ok, but there's lots of surrounding restaurant choices nearby. If they updated both of those areas the price and overall experience would be top notch....a 5 Star Yelp review for sure. The only other issue we had was the process with getting your rentals at the ski rental booth. There were young adults and older teens running it. And, they were slow and seemed less then thrilled to be there. But, once we got our ski equipment and got outside....it was a fun experience from beginning to end. Overall, we had a really great trip and would definitely return to WISP for the outdoor ski activities, but we all decided that we will rent a house near the WISP slopes or somewhere near another main attraction here in this area, such as the Deep Creek Lake.

    We went snow tubing here and it was so fun! We went on a Wednesday so got to snow tube for 4 hours for the price of 2 hours so definitely recommend that! It was also not busy at all so we never had to wait in line! I only took away one star because the ramp that took you to the top of the tubing hill broke down twice during our session and we had to walk to the top of the hill on foot, but other than that, super fun experience!

    We visited the Wisp for some early March skiing and snow tubing. All tickets must be pre-purchased online this year. This policy allows them to regulate crowds. The lines at the lift were not too long on Friday evening for night skiing. They still had a 36" base. The lodge is cozy and well equipped. They have some fairly standard food options. The lost and found people were really helpful when someone in our party had lost a car key. Today, I went back for snow tubing. It was a sunny Sunday afternoon, and the lines were long. But it was still lots of fun.

    Our group of 7 had a very nice time at the resort, which is very close to restaurants and bars as well as a grocery and liquor store. It was also about a mile from where we stayed. The staff were extremely conscientious about how we can maximize our value by allowing us to purchase a three-pack of mountain coaster tickets and use among three people. They also allowed one of us in our group to exchange the ropes course for a mountain coaster ride after a change of heart from one in our group. You do have to fill out standard waivers before participating in any activities, as expected. For a Sunday morning around 10:30am, I was surprised that there were no lines for either the ropes course or for the mountain coaster, the two activities we participated in. The mountain coaster was initially scary but ultimately tons of fun. It is a single-person cart for which you control the speed, somewhat. It's good for children and adults of all ages, so bring the kids and the grandparents. There are some scary--well, thrilling--turns. It's about a 5-minute ride (maybe longer, I didn't time it). I rode twice! The ropes course involved only about five or six sets of obstacles, but it took about 45 minutes to complete. Only one person is allowed per obstacle so you have to wait until the person ahead of you is safely on the next platform. The instructors were youthful, energetic, and informative, conveying safety with humor. You can zipline from one obstacle to another but that's less fun. When you reach the end, you zipline back where you started. I recommend both of these activities!

    My review is for the summer activities only. I took the family for the adventure park to ride the mountain coaster. Upon arrival, we saw various lines in different areas. We walked up to the building to purchase tickets. Fortunately I looked at the website ahead of time to get an idea of what to expect. The signs inside indicate the prices for each activity. It's pretty expensive (a single rider one time down the mountain coaster is $19; double rider is $24). I opted to get the 5 option pick and choose pass for $79 because we were able to use the same pass for all of us. We loved the mountain coaster and would have gone more times if it wasn't so expensive. We also did the scenic ski lift which was pretty cool because they let you get out and walk around at the top before deciding when you want to catch a ride back down. My only recommendation is that they add large signs to indicate what each activity is.

    Never played the course before. Was in the area on a vacation. I was able to get a decent deal on…read moreGolf now. Regular price of $80 seems a bit steep for this place but I understand that you're in a sort of "resort" town so... Most of the courses around here are actually rather expensive. In fact, this might even be the cheapest one! The layout is certainly unique. The idea of having six part 5s and six part 3s and six part 4s might sound somewhat interesting but... In the end, I kind of found it annoying. (Call me a purist, I guess?) By far, the worst thing is the pace of play. We had a couple groups ahead of us on the front nine that were ridiculously slow. The starter kept sending out twosomes and it just back things up. Two groups behind me actually quit before getting to number nine... One of them quit on whole number five. It was better on the back nine when the groups in front of us quit. The starter didn't seem to really know what he was doing. And there were no Rangers. I understand that rangers can be annoying... But an almost three hour 9 is ridiculous. Another thing that's really worth noting... The hills are somewhat significant, and the carts are legitimately not great with their brakes. Like... Seriously not good. And somewhat surprisingly the management seems to be aware of this. They even gave me a heads up. What's even weirder, is that the newer carts actually seem to be WORSE! Coming down the cartpath after green on hole #five, the pro actually warned me to be careful.... And I honestly was trying to be incredibly careful! And I STILL almost flipped the cart! The brakes just give out! It's like you have to pump them or something... But it wasn't just there... Anytime you were going down a hill on the course, there was no guarantee your car could stop. That's insanity! So the course was in good enough shape... And the greens were actually in really surprisingly good shape for the most part... ((though the greens on the back nine are surprisingly small)) ... my biggest problem was the golf carts... Just straight up unsafe. ((Legitimately... If you're healthy enough to walk the course... Do yourself a huge favor and walk it. It's much safer!))

A few holes seemed to have a little updating like new signs or asphalt but then the trash can looked like a burn barrel. Lay out was fun/interesting , t boxes fair. You can tell that are working on the greens. Some areas nicely groomed some left to seed. Fairways are awful and not well defined. Carts were in poor condition and dirty. However this is a hilly course and I bet the carts take a beating. Between the rough skinny paths and condition of the carts there might be some safety issues there. Price was fairly reasonable.

Too many 6 & even 8 person groups. The course is always backed up and the slow pace of play makes it impossible to get loosened up. You shouldn't have to wait 20-30 per hole. Golfed here twice this year vs our normal 2-3 times a week. Last year was the same. All locals I know that normally play here have also been unhappy. Doesn't matter how many people are there they'll keep taking your money and let you go to just sit. No rain checks. My husband went to play today as a solo. Played 3 holes in the matter of over an hour and left even though he paid for 9. It's no longer enjoyable when you have to sit for so long. Reorganizing how the place is operated is a MUST now that they seem to be busier. Sad bc I've always loved The Summit. I will miss it but we have been and will continue making other local courses our go to.

    Lakeview Resort: Allegheny Plateau and Cheat Lake…read more Lakeview Resort is the only timeshare listed by Interval International in West Virginia. Lakeview Resort is in the Allegheny Plateau of the Appalachian Mountains. The elevation varies from 1,000' to 2500.' South of the Allegheny Plateau is the Allegheny Highlands, which varies from 2,000' to 4800.' Lakeview Resort is a timeshare community that is incorporated into a dynamic housing market overlooking Cheat Lake. While Lakeview Resort is near Morgantown, West Virginia, it is also near Pennsylvania and Maryland. Lakeview Resort provides a home base to explore southern Pennsylvania, western Maryland, and northern West Virginia. We have been trading into Lakeview Resort for nearly twenty years. The Interval International website photos are very accurate concerning the townhouse arrangement of Lakeview Resort. This property has long been sold out, although there are units listed on various resale markets. Be careful not to confuse the Lakeview Resort timeshares with the Lakeview Resort hotel. The hotel seems to have less favorable reviews than Lakeview Resort timeshare. Recall that Interval International does not list Lakeview Resort as a "premium resort" or "select resort." We find the Homeowners Association has maintained the property, and do expect an updated unit for your visit. The kitchen is a full working kitchen, and the combined living room dining area features a neat fireplace, which may be used during the summer evenings. The bedrooms and bathrooms have been updated, and always remain clean. Lakeview Resort provides ample parking for visitors and for guests. On-site amenities include a golf course, swimming pool, and access to the clubhouse amenities. We find that Lakeview Resort is a great four-season resort. Lakeview Resort may be used as a home base for Seven Springs skiing in Pennsylvania, Wisp skiing in Maryland, Canaan Valley, Timberline, or Snowshoe skiing in West Virginia. Autumn is very dramatic in the Allegheny Plateau of the Appalachian Mountains. Lakeview Resort is near West Virginia University, and the development of the university in recent years has added all the amenities of a small university city. There are several restaurants, both on property and in Morgantown and environs, which offer a menu and price range to fit most budgets. The newer Wharf District in Morgantown has become one of the best portals to the Caperton Trail. What was once an old warehouse district is now a revitalized growing commercial and residential center. Located next to the Monongahela River and the Caperton Trail, the Wharf District area is growing rapidly. It is best to park the car and walk through the shops and interesting areas of the Wharf District. Mountain State Brewing Co. is another interesting visit while in the wharf district of Morgantown. Serving hand-crated house microbrew, and gourmet wood-fired flatbreads, Mountain State Brewing Co. may be found in several West Virginia locations. Mountain State Brewing Co. reminds us of several Colorado brewpubs. Seneca Center is the site of a former glass factory, and the Seneca Center now offers gift shops and the Glasshouse Grill restaurant. Within an hour's drive is Fallingwater, Pennsylvania. Considered by some as the most famous private house ever built (Frank Lloyd Wright,) Fallingwater epitomizes man living in harmony with nature. The house, set amid 5000 acres of natural wilderness, is constructed of local sandstone, reinforced concrete, steel, and glass. It juts out over a waterfall on Bear Run, appearing as naturally formed as the rocks, trees, and rhododendrons, which embrace it. Within an hour's drive is Ohio Pyle, Pennsylvania in the Laurel Highland Mountains of Fayette County Pennsylvania. Ohio Pyle, Pennsylvania offers some of the best whitewater rafting in the eastern U.S. Ohio Pyle State Park offers hiking and biking along the 135 mile Great Allegheny Passage. Fort Necessity National Battlefield is near Ohio Pyle, Pennsylvania, and also near Uniontown, Pennsylvania. The battle at Fort Necessity in the summer of 1754 was the opening action of the French and Indian War. This war was a clash of British, French, and American Indian cultures. It ended with the removal of French power from North America. The stage was set for the American Revolution. The important history is that a young Virginia officer, George Washington was in command during the battle of Fort Necessity. Although this was Washington's first defeat, the battle would provide the young Colonel invaluable military strategy that would affect Washington's decision-making during the Revolutionary War. It is recommended that the tourist research the Battle of Fort Necessity to appreciate the historical event and the events that followed. A one and one-half hour drive east into Swallow Falls State Park, Maryland will provide some of Maryland's most breathtaking scenery.
