“Superior building materials and design made the difference. People were trying to get us to build with pine logs, no vaulted ceilings or features, inferior windows, doors and other products. Once we started talking to Marc and Michael we immediately realized the difference in their vision for quality, design, and thought.”

“We are extremely happy to recommend the Highland Ventures Group because they did a great job of building our vacation home in the Deep Creek Lake area. Marc, Jason, and Mike are highly reliable and know what people want from a ‘dream home.’ They easily understood our goals and budget constraints and gave us excellent value. Although we live three hours away, communication was easy with phone calls and virtual meetings. A big thanks to Marc, Jason, Mike, and their associates for all they did to make our dream come true. As we consider building another home, we hope to use Highland Ventures again.”

Our experience with Mike Malloy and Highland Ventures has been nothing short of fantastic. He is genuine and caring and has clearly taken a different and better approach to the business of new home building in the Deep Creek Lake area. He cares deeply about helping you build the log home of your dreams and, more importantly, he cares deeply about you and your family.

“We have worked with many builders before, but the crew at Highland Ventures are some of the best that we have had the pleasure of dealing with. Michael and Marc Malloy and their team were responsive, professional, and incredibly easy to work with from the outset of our initial meeting. We bought into the project early when our house was still under construction, and we were able to help customize it with their assistance.”

“Our project was completed in the fall of 2022, which means it went right through the heart of any COVID-related supply chain delays, ongoing health concerns, shortages of materials -- you name it!! Even with all those obstacles, Mike, Marc, and the team kept ahead of everything they could control to ensure necessary materials were in place to keep the project moving. We, and our guests, look forward to enjoying our new build for many years to come!”

%22We are absolutely thrilled with the amazing job our builder did on our home addition! From the very first day, their team became like family to us. Over the course of a few months, they not only delivered exceptional craftsmanship but also went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was exactly what we envisioned. Their dedication to our project and willingness to accommodate our requests truly set them apart. We couldn’t be happier with our choice to work with them and highly recommend their services to anyone looking to enhance their home. Thank you for making our dream a reality!%22

We have been using Highland Ventures Group for the past 2 years. Jason, Marc and their entire crew have been extremely professional and polite. 

They have done everything for us from deck work, exterior & interior painting, minor handyman projects to large jobs. Every team for any of those jobs have done a great job, make sure to clean up and check with you before they leave.

I have recently had the great pleasure of working with Marc and Jason and the staff of Highland Ventures. 

From start to finish the communication has been spot on, all the staff, no matter what their job, have been extremely polite and helpful, the work is very high quality, and the job site is left immaculate.

As a long term resident of Garrett County I am extremely happy recommend them.
