Featured Installation: The Lodge at North Shore

The Lodge at North Shore

Second Homes At Deep Creek Lake is a shared ownership vacation home business in the Allegheny Mountains of western Maryland and the passion of owner, Pam Scott.  The Lodge at North Shore is a luxury vacation home, featuring Inglenook brick tiles in many of the common areas of the living spaces. Pam chose King Street brick tiles in Providence color mix, with extra brown flash from the reduction gas kiln firing. This combination blends beautifully with the wood tones of other floors, trim and beams and with the hewn exposed stone.

Kitchen brick tile flooring

Pam needed a durable material for the high traffic kitchen floor in the home — something that would hold up well to many feet running between the house and the lake. She chose our brick tiles for the low maintenance, durability and the hand-crafted quality.

Kitchen brick backsplash and thin brick floors

The kitchen joins the great room, in one open space. Our brick tiles cover the large kitchen floor and are used on the back splash.

Pam says,

“Working with Inglenook Tile was a pleasure from start to finish. In the beginning, when I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted, they were very helpful in making suggestions and sending samples. Delivery of the order was as promised. I am very happy with the look we achieved, and I would recommend their product to anyone.”

After we worked with Pam, she recommended us to the people at Blue Moon Rising on Deep Creek Lake, a learning center for sustainable education, and they also used our tiles! We will talk about this project in a future blog post. I have been invited to visit Deep Creek Lake, and maybe I will get there this year — after all, I already have a group of friends there, whom I have never met!

King Street: This tile, designed for the elegant King Street Hotel in Alexandria, VA, gives our classic 4×8” brick size a distinguished antique look. Straight-sided and smooth underfoot, this tile design is the perfect option for kitchens, powder rooms…or hotel lobbies. Shown in “Providence” color mix.

Summer Kitchen: This 3½x7” beauty is slightly smaller than our rustic Wright’s Ferry and Traditional Antique styles. Straight-sided and smooth underfoot, this tile design also works well for kitchens and powder rooms. Shown in “Elizabethtown” color mix with extra wood ash

Rutherford: The second of our new, more diminutive styles, Rutherford has a slimmer profile with a smoothed surface (dimensions: 3¾x7½). Designed to create a perfect basket-weave pattern when installed, this tile is appropriate for other installation patterns as well (What installation pattern do you like best? See “Installation Possibilities” on our website for some inspiration). The Rutherford board pictured is in the “Mount Gretna” color mix.
