This was our second time staying here; the fact that we wanted to come back should be evidence enough. We have a large group of 25 people and this home was large enough to accommodate all of us. It's well stocked, checking in is easy, and it's as lovely as you hope. Don't miss out! We're already talking about when we want to come back for our third time.
I took my teens and some of their friends for 3 nights and we had an amazing time. There were so many activities to do and rooms to explore. The kitchen was nicely stocked with everything needed for feeding all the hungry teens. The movie theater was luxurious. It was overall amazing and we will probably go again.
We booked a 5-day stay here for a multi-family Dungeons and Dragons in a Castle event. The castle itself is ornate and large. High ceilings, wood paneling, rock and hardwood floors. This whole place has echoes of the Winchester Mystery House. It is a fun location for a big event. With 6 families, we initially laughed at the various sitting rooms and gaming rooms, but by the end of the weekend, most of them had seen some use. That stated, the place also had several challenges. It has no internet and limited access by mobile hotspot. This isn't advertised on the VRBO listing and it wasn't noted in their multi-page visitor checklist. We had to adjust major planned events as a result of this. The place has serious accessibility issues. There are 5 or 6 different beds designed for kids, but not a single bathroom had even a step stool for kids to wash their hands. There are short stairs everywhere. Impossible for wheelchair users, but people with cans won't like this either. There's no air conditioning, but there's also no ventilation in general. Temperature control was very difficult. You could open a window, but many of them didn't have working screens, which meant bugs. Lastly, some stuff didn't work. The kitchen microwave was broken, the butler pantry microwave couldn't cook popcorn. Bluray player had no remote, couldn't play HD blurays. Playstation controllers mostly broken. Kitchen had no broom. Common rooms had no blinds. Premium price, not a premium experience.
My partner and I renewed our vows with a small gathering of friends and family. It was the happiest day of our lives, and our friends and family all agreed that this was one of the best vacations we have ever taken. What an incredible adventure, and a memory that will never fade.
Emily was fantastic to work with and answered all of my questions. The house was clean, organized and a perfect location for our out of town guests to gather for a long 80th birthday celebration. I couldn’t of been happier with the quality and comfort of this massive beautiful house. Thank you!
Our friend group occasionally rents a large property to spend a weekend playing board games. We were so impressed with the space it had more tables than we could honestly ask for, and I'm sure that's the first time you've had that compliment. We liked it so much we'll definitely be back. -B-Pack
Emily was a wonderful to work with.. the home was outstanding! Perfect for our Family Christmas! Thank you!
It's a magnificent place for a family reunion!
Perfect location for reunion of college friends and their families with ages ranging from infant to mid-40s. Even though it rained most of the weekend everyone stayed entertained with the movie theater, arcade, pool room, ball room, and many nooks and corners for conversations, reading or games. The castle was immaculately clean and check-in and logistics were professionally managed.
Incredible place!
