Take a break from the hustle and bustle of Baltimore, Maryland's most populous city, and head a McHenry cabin or lake house for plenty of year-round fun. In summer, hardcore rafters will want to head to Youghiogheny River, while those still perfecting their skills may want to visit Adventure Sports Center International to practice in a controlled environment. Other water sports include boating, fishing, and water skiing on the areas abundant rivers and lakes.
In the winter, hit the mountain at Wisp Resort and ski and board your way down its 32 slopes, groomed and waiting for snow bums of all skill levels. If you prefer more off-the-grid winter fun, do some ice skating, ice fishing, snowshoeing, or cross-country skiing.
Check out McHenry's artful side and visit Simon Pearce Glassblowing Workshop to see artisans at work, and take home some beautiful utilitarian art for yourself or family and friends. Then head to Spruce Forest Artisan Village and take a step back in time. Wander through the aged log cabins to the ping and clang of anvils and hammers as craftspeople employ their skills and perform their old-world trades.
And at the end of the day, return to your McHenry cabin rental to rest up and recharge for another action-packed day, steeped in natural beauty and teeming with indoor and outdoor fun for everyone.
