McHenry House | Shelby-on-the-Lake | Dock, Hot Tub, Game Room

5 Bedroom House in McHenry

Shelby on the Lake is a warm and inviting mountain retreat tucked along the northern shoreline of Deep Creek, less than two miles from Wisp Resort. Year-round adventure, relaxation, and lakefront fun are right at your fingertips!
Outside, the expansive lakefront deck invites you to relax, nap in the shade, or gather at the fire pit under a blanket of stars. A wooden boardwalk leads to your private dock slip — bring or rent a boat to explore Deep Creek’s quiet coves!
Coming soon: a brand-new synthetic turf area for yard games like cornhole and bocce, plus a beautiful stone walkway leading to the waterfront and a brand-new lakefront stone patio seating area — the perfect spot to savor those serene lake views.
Step inside to soaring cathedral ceilings, stunning lake views, and a massive stacked-stone fireplace that anchors the great room — perfect for cozy nights by the fire, sharing laughs and stories. The spacious kitchen, with stainless steel appliances, five barstools, and two dining tables, makes feeding the whole crew a breeze. Sliding doors lead to the deck where you can fire up the grill, dine outdoors, or simply soak in the fresh mountain air.
When it’s time to unwind, you’ll find five bedrooms designed with comfort in mind: a main-level primary suite with king bed, jetted tub, fireplace, and deck access; two upper-level suites (one king, one queen); a lower-level suite with queen bed and lake views; plus a charming double bedroom and two dens with sleeper sofas — offering plenty of space for everyone.
On the lower level, entertainment takes center stage with a pool table, foosball, wet bar, second fridge, wood-burning fireplace, and a bubbling outdoor hot tub just steps away.
With Wisp Resort practically at your doorstep, you can have paddleboards, kayaks, or bikes delivered right to the house and enjoy golf, skiing, snow tubing, ziplining, and more. Local restaurants, nightlife, marinas, and seven scenic state parks are all within easy reach.

Summary: We had a fantastic time! The house was beautiful and suited our needs. We had fun on the lake during the day and around the fire pit at night. The house was furnished nicely with a lot of comfortable seating to visit or play games.
