  1. Ski In/Ski Out
    Refers to any home that provides direct access from the house to the slopes of Wisp Resort without driving or crossing a road. The convenience to the slopes in the winter is the best amenity! Some of our homes in the Lake Access and Lake Area categories may also be considered a Ski-In/Ski-Out property.
  2. Limited Lake Access
    Any home which does not come with any type of direct access to the lake for swimming or vessels, but does offer other lake-related activities, which include fishing and a lakeside picnic pavilion. Communities with this designation may also potentially offer many other great benefits, such as beautiful mountaintop views, quiet communities, great locations, and more. You can reserve a boat ahead of time at a local marina or access the lake for swimming through the public state park, which offers a sandy beach.

Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful home! The weekend was a huge thrill for our grandsons in their first exposure to skiing. There were two in our party who could not go out on the slopes so being able to see the skiers right out the back window was a fantastic perk. Loved the ski boot dryer in the garage.

Thank you for the feedback Cecilia! The Railey's staff and homeowners strive to provide the best rental experience and we love to hear when we've succeeded. We hope to have the opportunity to rent to you again in the future! Madison, Railey Vacations

What a great vacation getaway! We have used Railey in the past for a lakefront home and now for this ski in/out property. The home was clean and comfortable. Railey does an amazing job. They make vacationing with them easy and stress free. The house had everything we needed. We loved the ability to be so close to chair 7. What a great experience to come and go so easily with the lift right there. It was a real game changer for our family. Although the lift wasn't running our first day there (we were aware this was a possibility at the time we booked) it was an easy drive to lift 6. Can't wait to book again.

We appreciate you for taking the time to leave us a review Deborah! Our Railey staff and homeowners strive to provide the best rental experience and we love to hear when we’ve succeeded! Looking forward to seeing you again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

This string of duplexes is is our go-to for the Wisp area. Most of the time you can just walk a few steps right out the door to get on the slopes. Lazy bear chalet has everything you need! We had a mix of teens and adults, and Railey was great to work with. The only thing I think would help and make it even better would be a door entry code instead of stopping at the office to pick up the key. We will be back! Thanks!

We appreciate you taking the time out to leave us a great 5 star review Rebekah! We are glad to hear that you and your group had a fun time with us at Lazy Bear Chalet!

Extremely Disappointed

We have been very upset about our stay to say the least. We were very intentional with planning this trip and where we would stay. We needed a hot tub to be able to recover from the skiing. We would not have stayed there if we knew it would not be available. And if we were told the morning of our arrival (your staff contacted another guest instead of us) we would have asked immediately for a new place. We invested $2000 with a top priority being the hot tub. $150 is not ok. No staff could help us with the situation and we are extremely disappointed. We couldn’t even use a bath tub in that house because the drains don’t properly function.

Hi, Rae - thanks for your review. We regret that the hot tub at Lazy Bear Chalet was not working properly for your stay and do hope the refund we were able to immediately allot provided some consolation. We understand the frustration that comes from an inoperable amenity, especially a guest-favorite such as the hot tub. Our Guest Experience team is currently reviewing your request for an additional refund and will be reaching out shortly. We appreciate your patience as we work to make this issue right, and we are looking forward to speaking with you again. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

This house is beautiful! I reserved host my 40th bday gathering with a few close friends and family. We had such an amazing, fun filled weekend of eating and drinking and playing games. The only gripe I would really make is that their speaker system in the home is outdated and requires an older aux cord. They should probably consider updating this to a Bluetooth device to make it easier and more convenient. Luckily, we were able to find one in Walmart. We struggled with the grill a bit and it’s really old and rusted out at the. bottom all the way through. You could literally see the bottom of the floor through the grill top. Besides that, it was smooth sailing all weekend! I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking for some relaxation in a gorgeous setting!

Happy 40th, Shamika! We're so glad you had a wonderful celebration at Lazy Bear Chalet and we appreciate your suggestions for how it could've been even better. Since your visit, the owner has upgraded the speaker system to a Bluetooth sound bar and has replaced the grill to ensure the fun and comfort of our future guests. Thanks so much for helping us keep Lazy Bear Chalet a guest-favorite home! We hope you'll visit again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

The Lazy Bear Chalet was the perfect home base for our weekend getaway with high school friends! We enjoyed sitting by the firepit every evening and catching up. The hot tub was lovely, everything was clean and well maintained. The only complaint was that the fan in the queen bedroom did not work. Great location to McHenry and all the fun things at wisp. We enjoyed it!

Sounds like a blast, Seneca! We’re glad you and your friends had a great time at Lazy Bear Chalet and appreciate you alerting us to the fan in the queen bedroom; we’ll have our team get this repaired ASAP. Thanks for your review and we hope you’ll visit again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations
