Surprising space and lovely place, all the way around! Richard was very accessible via text and made the rental experience smooth. But the house itself is more spacious and has more rooms & sleeping areas that even described. And listening to the babbling brook from the huge porch was a totalHighlight! 10/10 would recommend for a mountain getaway with family or friends.

Julie, thank you so much for your kind words. They reflect exactly how we hope everyone feels about their stay at Norton Creek Lodge. Im so thankful and thrilled you and your family were able to make memories there. We’ll be here next time you’re in Highlands. Thanks again.

This home was beautiful and well equipped. It easily accommodated our family of three adults and three children. The home is situated close to town making it easy to access food and Kilwins’ treats! A shallow stream runs right in the backyard, and provided nonstop entertainment for our three grandchildren (ages 2, 4, and 6). There’s a nice fire pit outside by the stream and plenty of Adirondack chairs for relaxing. The owner was very responsive. We had such a nice visit here and can’t wait to return!
