Visit Isle St.Croix for a breath of fresh air!

Stretching from the Highpoint area, with stunning views across the whole neighborhood, it starts with Highpoint House, on to Highpoint Ridge which has bowling and then Highpoint Cabins hotel. The mountains roll downwards through thick forests and over rocky terrain as we come to Cornerstone Hotel and Cornerstone Campsite, still high enough for stunning views and a quick trek through the woods, and both built near to the cornerstone, which sits in the crook of the mountain and from which the lots take their name.

Coming down, winding hills take you to along the Bridgewood Center, which is a large community lot, the Bridgewood Trail campsite is opposite.

Lastly, the terrain dips even further down into the busier main town area known locally as Riverside Bay, with wonderful views across the sea!

There are five hotels, each should have rooms to suit various family requirements and budgets, two campsites, several holiday homes, a mixture of shops, restaurants, bars and a casino.
Isle St.Croix provides plenty of things to do and places to see...

1. Highpoint Hotel

Room prices: from $840 - $898 simoleans. The highest priced room is a large suite sleeping eight sims and costs $3,144.
Built on a 5x6 sized lot and set in rocky, tree lined hills at the top of the mountain. Outside there's a rockpool and two hot tubs, inside is a swimming pool, a lounge area and arcade machines. On the middle floor there are four rooms, one with one double bed, one with a double and a single bed, one with two single beds and one with three single beds. There are also TVs, a pooltable, chess tables and a lounge.
On the top floor there are two single rooms, as well as the large suite to take a whole family, or perhaps a large group of friends. This room comprises two double bedrooms and two with two single beds, a living area with seating, a TV and dining for eight. Only the large suite has a TV, all rooms have bathrooms and there are also public bathrooms on the ground floor.
The lot is large and it will take your sims a while to get from one point to another, that is unless they have the energy to run to wherever you want them to be!

2. Highpoint Cabins

Room prices: from $1,114 - $1,211 simoleans.
Built on a 4x3 lot, this is a small hotel with few facilities, to use as a base while you explore the rest of Isle St. Croix! There's a pond with a bridge which takes sims to the reception area then along to the four cabins, each sleeping between two and three sims.

3. Cornerstone Hotel
Room prices: $1,664 - $1,816 simoleans.
The Cornerstone Hotel sits on a 4x3 lot and has a family feel, with larger rooms than most of the other hotels. One suite has a room with a double bed, then a separate room with three single beds. The other suite has one room with a double bed, and two separate rooms with two single beds in each. Rooms have seating to accomodate the whole family, there are also toys, and each suite has a balcony.
Facilities in the hotel include a shop selling souvenirs, gifts and food. There is also a TV and games room, with a chess table, arcade machines, a pooltable and dartboard. There's an indoor swimming pool, public bathrooms, and outside there's a food bar and swings.

4. Cornerstone Campsite
The Cornerstone Campsite is small and friendly, on a 3x3 lot it is perfect for a nights spent under the stars before moving on to somewhere more permanent! It has four tents, a campfire, a barbeque area and public bathrooms. The lot is small, hilly, and may get messy if you stay there too long, because unless you have a neatfreak sim, no one else seems to want to clean up the mess. I would recommend using this!

5. Hillside Hotel
Room prices: $318 - $1,024 simoleans.
A basic hotel built on a 4x3 lot, set on a hill overlooking the town below. Facilities include seating and TV's, a bar with a chess table and darts. Downstairs there's a pool and a room with a hot tub. There is one double room with en-suite, then two rooms with single beds, one room with two single beds and another room with four single beds. There are 2 public bathrooms on each upper floor.

6. Bridgewood Trail
The campsite was built on a 5x4 lot and has six tents, campfires and hammocks, a food bar and a barbeque with seating. There's also a pond for fishing, spanned by a drooping bridge which leads to the public bathrooms.
For keeping the barbeque area clean, try this!

7. Timbers Hotel

Each cabin has living space and a bathroom.

Very basic cabin with one double bed and one bathroom. You might need to fix the bed with the swatch tool, an EP glitch can affect the colour. Built on a 1x3 lot, and inspired by a picture found on Google images.
If you're keeping it as it is, try this to fix the gap between the column and the decorative supports above. Also, the M&G flower baskets or something custom will suit to hang from them better than the plants I've used here!

Excellent! Thank you so much for all of the work that you did in creating this subhood.

Has it been modified from the version on the Beacon Falls website?

This is amazing! Your lots are a lot cooler than the Maxis ones in Three Lakes. I think I'm going to replace the Maxis ones with yours.

Mootilda, you have been so much more than helpful to me through all of this, ISC wouldn't be here without you and I thank you very much for your thanks as well as everything else!

If anyone downloaded it from the the Beacon Falls website before the 9th of December 2010, then this will be slightly different. However, after making the changes ready to upload it here, I then updated the blog version and they are now both exactly the same.

Sarahjane10784, thank you very much, I am very happy that you like my lots!

I'll download it again, then. I want to have the latest and greatest version.

I notice that you didn't modify the Install Instructions tab; it says to copy the subhood to the Downloads folder. You'll probably want to fix that. Take a look at the Brainania Install Instructions tab, if you'd like to see what I did with mine. Or, just mention that the installation instructions are included in the 7zip file.

Also, you've got the wrong EP requirements on the Download tab; you'll want to fix that.

Thanks! I did actually try to edit that part while attempting my 'changes required', along with a couple of other things, and I also put a link for 7-zip because that had been a change made just before it had gone into the moderation queue. But I use IE, and I read over the last few days in the site Q & I that someone was having trouble with their edits made in IE, and can now see that mine obviously haven't stuck either. I'll try to fix them again, if it doesn't work then I'll have to do it using another browser.
Edit: Hopefully it's all fixed now! I've taken your suggestions and am adding instructions similar to yours for Brainania because I'd forgotten to cover for people installing in alternative locations! I've also only just noticed that I've made a typo in the filename for the download!
Thanks again!

Thank you for all the hardwork you have put into this hood - it looks really good.

This looks amazing! I can't wait to see it in game :-) Thanks for sharing it here on MTS!

I'm so excited to have a non-EAxis vacation destination that includes a secret lot!! Thank you so much for sharing this new vacation template. I can't even begin to imagine how much effort goes into building a complete neighborhood...clicking the thanks button feels downright inadequate!

leesester, lauratje86 and mangaroo, your lovely comments mean a lot to me! I am pleased both to be able to share, and that MTS could accept it! I hadn't a clue whether anyone would be interested, so to each of you and also to everyone else who has downloaded it, thank you all very very much!
mangaroo, I wasn't sure about making a secret lot, so I am glad that you sound happy to have it. I hope you like playing it, and I really appreciate you clicking the thanks button!

Wow!! This is a fabulous vacation spot. Wish I could truely go there!! Isthere any chance of your posting the SC4 file for this? I would love to have my Sims also live in this wonderful Mountain area. Great Work!!!!!

This looks promising. I've been wanting a more interesting vacation spot.
