Stay in a Castle in Little Norway's Quiet Countryside at Nordic Hill Manor

7 Couples and a friend who cooks enjoyed the peacefulness of the Manor and unplugged from the world for the weekend. Nordic Hill provided ample space for couples to 'Be Intentional' with one another. Each couple enjoyed something they specifically chose together, whether playing a game of pool, a movie in the theatre, soaking in the hot tub, a massage with a view, playing checkers on the life sized board, taking a stroll through the woods on the trail or cozied up in front of the fire. All left refreshed and with more love in their hearts for their spouse. Love Reigned ;)

We had an excellent stay at Nordic Hill Manor. Heinz and KJ were excellent in communications with us during our process. We did run into some unpreventable snafus, no fault of the venue, but they were on it in minutes and it didn’t affect the quality of our stay. We loved having such a gorgeous space, view and property to explore around us. The kitchen was excellently stocked with supplies and everyone loved the hot tub, games, bar and theater options. We are recommending without hesitation!

This place is incredible! We did our family Christmas and gathered the largest group we have ever been able to accommodate. We had guests from 6 months to 75 years old and every phase of life in between. We had to find a spot to entertain and suit toddlers to teens to young adults to middle aged to respectably wise all at the same time and this place was able to impress us all! Tons of games and activities, suites with private bathrooms for everyone, the hot tub, massage chairs, the beds were more comfortable than home, the kitchen was amazing with so many extras from the espresso machine to the double ovens and every utensil available. The hosts respond quickly and make you feel so welcome! My favorite Christmas in 40 years and I was able to create the most precious memories with my family since we were kids! Thank you so much for having such a spectacular place available!

We had a gathering with 13 adults and 2 toddlers. The property was beautiful with so many spots for activities and a large stocked kitchen for all of our meals. The hosts were extremely gracious and helpful when we had questions, we will definitely consider staying again in the future!

The kitchen was fully equipped, with two ovens and lots of counter space! Three coffee makers. We enjoyed all of the games provided, the pool table, the game table, the indoor shuffleboard. The hot tub and the two massage chairs were a fabulous perk.

We decided to do a micro-wedding here with only close friends and family without seeing the place in person, and we are so glad we did! This spot has everything and more that we needed for bartending, cooking, relaxing, and entertainment. You can tell the place has been well loved and used over the years, but that made us feel more at home. This was one of the best vacations we have ever taken and we are so glad we went here.

This place is a palace with lot of space for everyone, lot of activities for all ages. play area awesome. All rooms and palace is neat and clean, we all enjoyed staying here and love to comeback again for our vacation. Sarrounding nature is awesome

We rented Nordic Hill Manor for a veterans reunion, the house was absolutely perfect, this is my 2nd time renting it for a large gathering and as usual it did not disappoint. The bedrooms are beautifully set up and the main kitchen was perfectly outfitted!!! I look forward to renting again, thank you again so much

We spent 3 days there in beautiful weather in early Sept. One day was spent in the lovely nearby little town of Poulsbo and the second day walking the beach at Point No Point in Hansville, then visiting the beautiful gardens of Herronswood near Hansville. Each bedroom is unique most with ensuite bathrooms. The entertainment centers in and out side of the house are special for large numbers of people. We hope to return in the future. Thank you for helping us spend out 47th anniversary as a group of hikers. Ginger

// THE HOUSE ITSELF My family loved Nordic Hill Manor. As we drove up to the property, we were greeted by a mother deer and her two fawns - what a great way to arrive! There was plenty of parking behind the house and in the circle drive - we had five or six cars with us and they were easily accomodated by the ample parking. The photographs online don't adequately capture the grand scale of the interior of the home - its huge! It was really fun to explore the house to find all the rooms (which are clearly labeled) and spaces we saw in the listing before renting - the whole place is a labyrinth in a very good way. I got lost at least twice (if only briefly). :D Upon arrival we were greeted by a nice welcome card, and a box of chocolates from a local sweet shop, ChocMo in Poulsbo. The kitchen was well stocked and was a great place to prepare food for everyone. We took advantage of the theater room as well, which wasa really cool. While the home has certainly seen some wear - its clear the place is well loved and the occasional worn carpet or minor scuff didn't affect our enjoyment of the property in any way. We truly loved our time at Nordic Hill Manor, and I could easily see us considering renting the castle again in the future. This was a family reunion we won't soon forget. // RENTAL EXPERIENCE We rented through VRBO and once completed, the Nordic Hill Manor staff provided clear and prompt communications including a very detailed description of the property, checkin and checkout times, kitchen supplies and many other bits of information we wanted to know ahead of our stay. As the renter - I was able to share the Manor's guidebook with my family and it answered all of their questions. The door code was supplied and gaining acccess to the place was easy. Checkout procedures were clear and expectations were reasonable. Thank you Nordic Hill Manor! We loved our stay!

I couldn't have chosen a more perfect setting to bring my friends and family together to celebrate my 50th. The space is huge with not only all the basic amenities but also so many extra touches. The movie theatre & hot tub were amazing! We enjoyed the trails and outdoor games as well. But maybe just hanging out in the house was our favorite part. It fits larger groups with ease while still feeling like 'home'. On a more specific note, the beds were super comfortable, the showers had great water pressure, and the AC kept us all cool. Parking was ample, the views were amazing. I can't say enough about this magical place. Last but not least, a huge thank you to Heinz for being such a gracious host and giving us a delightful welcome!

This venue was incredible. We used as much of the venue as we could and yet there was still so much space. This was great as we could really spread out in a way we often cannot at other venues. The amenities were great, the rooms were all incredible, and the kitchen was large enough for many of us to cook in at the same time. The theater room was a highlight and really sold movie night. I'm definitely going to have to stay here again!

Our group loved staying here. There was plenty of space for everyone. We will definitely stay here again.

This property is one-of-a-kind! Not only is the facility something to behold, with it's amenities and services, but the support and communication from the host is outstanding. They were very responsive to all our needs and provided an amazing weekend stay that will not be forgotten. All we can say is if you get a chance to stay at the Nordic Hill Manor, do so! You will not regret it.

Perfect place for a large group of us. Still felt private enough because most people got their own bedrooms. Plenty of spaces to gather and enjoy activities in the common spaces.

Staying at the Nordic Hill Manor was incredibly fun. Our large group was able to fit easily and we had plenty of space to hang out without feeling too on top of one another. We enjoyed using the very well stocked kitchen and even watched a movie in the theater. The great room made gathering as a group very simple and the dining area was able to accommodate and seat everybody. We enjoyed finding everyone's perfect glass in the bar area and overall had an amazing time. Heinz was very responsive and answered all my questions quickly. He also went above and beyond to mail us an item we'd left behind. Overall I would gladly stay here again and I am very grateful to have found such a lovely place with such a warm host to spend our weekend.

We had the privilege of staying at Heinz & KJ’s place for our dad’s 80th birthday. The spacious and well-designed venue was ideal for the occasion. The kids and adults thoroughly enjoyed watching movies in the theater and competing in pool tournaments on the pool table. The fully stocked kitchen and the buffet-style dining area made the meal a delightful experience. Heinz, the host, was incredibly helpful and responsive, answering our questions and providing valuable recommendations. Heinz and KJ truly went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and left a little something special for our dad, which he was very grateful for. Heinz & KJ - THANK YOU!! For helping and being a part of our Dads 80th! The weekend was perfect.

Can’t say enough about Nordic Hill Manor and hosts! You will not be disappointed. Our group of 14 all gave our stay top rating - definitely 5 out of 5 stars!!!

We've been coming to Nordic Hill Manor for retreats for years now. The space is unmatched and the hosts are always extremely responsive and helpful. Can't wait to come back!

The house is huge, lots of room for the family to stretch around , lots of privacy, car parking, not to even mention the giant kitchen space to cook! I loved the place and will highly recommend your stay here !

Our stay was simply perfect. The manor has every amenity we could dream of and for our really large party of people there was a place for each person to find a comfortable spot. Some people preferred socializing at the bar section while others needed to retreat to the massive theater. It was so nice to let the kids run wild through the fields and along the giant chess set. This is the ideal location for people to be together but always find a place they can duck out and relax. It feels like it's own magical kingdom. I simply cannot recommend this venue enough!

We loved the common areas, interesting notes and crannies, the many bedrooms, and the many baths. The kitchen was perfect for us to prepare large meals, and having three refrigerators was a huge help with some of the food that we picked up for a big meal. Same for the multiple ovens, a huge asset. The design has some charming themes, inside and out, and the parking was plentiful. The location is close enough to some great hikes, and Poulsbo was a nice place to go for lunch and a little bit of shopping. The owner was incredibly responsive, and overall it was a great experience!

The Nordic Hill Manor was the perfect place to house all of our family for a wedding. We were absolutely amazed when we entered the mansion. The place was huge and there were pleasant surprises around every corner. It was like going on a treasure hunt as we discovered each room. The main living area is gigantic and has a great bar area. There are two full sized kitchens, a theater and a separate television room and a hottub. The place was spotless and was equipped with any amenities you could possibly need. As soon as we checked in we started brainstorming about future events that would give us an excuse to come back. If it were possible to give the Nordic Hill Manor 10 stars, we would. Many thanks to the very hospitable hosts, Heinz and KJ. They were excellent at communicating so that our needs were met.

Nordic Hill Manor gets it, when it comes to providing an escape from the ordinary, and a beautiful venue for any type of event. I was pleasantly surprised from the minute I drove up the drive and saw the tower of the castle. Upon entering the front door, I felt like I was royalty. The guest rooms are spacious and provide more than enough room to spread out and get comfortable. The bathrooms are well appointed and comfortable. The kitchen has everything (yes, everything) a gourmet chef needs to prepare an exquisite breakfast, luncheon or dinner. When it comes to relaxation, the massage chairs, hot tub and theater provide more than enough of an escape. We were at Nordic Hill Manor for my daughter's wedding, and I'd love to come back for each and every anniversary celebration.

We loved our stay here and we had plenty of rooms and things to do for our party of 12. Everything was well stocked too.

This property was perfect for our Family Reunion. Jaws dropped as we pulled up to this ideal setting. You could feel the attention to detail in every room through the artwork and decor. There was so much space for our 14 guests with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. There was great entertainment inside and out. We enjoyed the horseshoes and volleyball court, giant chess set and exploring the trails. The shuffleboard & pool tables were fun. We had a wonderful time gathering together in the theater room and watching the Olympic Opening Ceremonies. The massage chairs and indoor hot tub were a hit. The sound system with speakers in the yard was fantastic. There was ample room for parking several vehicles. We have stayed in many VRBOs where the garbage was overflowing before we even arrived. This property had garbage dumpsters large enough for all our trash. The owner, Heinz, was a pleasure to work with. He responded to all my questions promptly from the time we booked the property and throughout our stay. We had a power outage for several hours one day and he kept me updated with notifications from PSE. He also sent me a message when our house was ready for early check-in. That was terrific because our guests were eager to get settled in this once in a lifetime castle experience. The kitchen was well stocked and spacious enough to make cooking together enjoyable. Check-in & out was also a breeze which we appreciated. We absolutely loved our stay. We Highly recommend.
