Photos and Description of the Norway vacation estate rental
Estate, 5 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths, (Sleeps 10)

This incredible property has never been rented before. Built back in the late 1800's it has been restored to a 'Luxury Camp'. The evening views from the deck are breathtaking. Eat Lobsters while you watch the evening sunset. Walk 50 feet to fish in this pristine body of water. The water skiing is second to none. Visit the Lake Store to get supplies by boat or canoe around the lake and see the Loons and Bald Eagles. The house is surrounded by 15 acres of private property. The quite is deafening! Bring your boat and jet skis. A public ramp is just a couple miles down the lake. And the floating dock is at you disposal. This property is pet friendly.

Keywords: Lakefront home in secluded area. Near mountains and Oxford Plains Speedway and the new Oxford Plains Casino. Quiet, relaxing.

About Mark or Vali Galasso

We are Maryland Restaurateurs and we need a place to relax once in a while. We also run a Charter business on the Chesapeake Bay.

Mark or Vali Galasso purchased this estate in 1970
Why Mark or Vali Galasso chose Norway

We have never visited such a relaxing place. The water is crystal clear and we all grew up skiing and fishing off our dock. The fourth generation is getting ready to call this place home. The tranquility is second to none.

What makes this estate unique

We purchased another large lot surrounding this property. It is so relaxing just a few days seem to melt away any problems. The cool crystal clear water is a nice change from our place in Maryland. We just can't seem to get in it enough. Every other day is Lobster feast for us. Nothing like cracking a few on the balcony overlooking the Lake. A cup of coffee or tea on the floating dock in the morning catching the first rays of sunlight can't be beat.

Owner's Response: Wonderful beach area next to the boathouse is safe and fun for wading in with small children. Our kids were there every summer, when they were bigger they advanced to boating and water skiing!

Norway Lake

4 of 5
Submitted: August 30, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
Our family stay on Norway Lake was as we expected for a lakeside camp. The house was furnished with old, tired furniture both indoors and out, but both were useable. The house was clean. Views of sunrise on the lake and the numerous loon sightings helped make up for the lack of comfort. Cooking items were well stocked, but storage was minimal for a week's groceries. (We wanted as much lake time as possible so running to the store daily wasn't in the plans). Bedrooms in the basement held a musty, dank smell which was only minimally helped by the dehumidifier. We would suggest some sort of air filter.
A pontoon boat rental from near by marina was a plus. It fit across the top of the T dock. Home provided kayak and canoe and some swim toys which we augmented successfully.
As we were from near by we didn't explore much. Lake time was our goal and we were not disappointed. Pictures supplied by owner are accurate. We would return especially if cushions for furniture were improved or replaced.
Owner's Response: New sofa in the living room and a comfy lounger for napping or watching TV are new additions this year, new furniture in the downstairs sitting room for watching TV also. Water toys were stored downstairs so those have been put out, and we've added an air purifier as requested, no more damp smells! There are 6 cabinets and two refrigerators, plenty of room for food storage!
