Is it possible to highlight certain rows of code in visual studio?

At the moment I'm working in a file with perhaps 1000 lines of code (HTML/JS). Lets say that there are three or four of these lines that are extra important, that I keep coming back to, to look up things. I find it a bit frustrating that it takes a few seconds every time I want to find one of these rows while scrolling through the code.

If it had been C# code, I could have set a break point at each important row, to make it easier to spot them when I scroll through the code, but that is not possible since this is an HTML-file.

Is there some way to highlight certain rows in Visual Studio, to make it easier to find them while scrolling through the code?

How about highlighting these important areas with well named Regions?

You could use the bookmark functionality. Some info can be found here.

It can be a bit cumbersome at first, but once you learn the appropriate shortcuts to bookmark / unbookmark / go to next bookmark it will make navigating your code a bit easier.
