Great place to stay
My friends and I had a lot of fun at the castle. Lots of space and room to enjoy! Very clean on the inside too! It was easy to get in contact with the owner as well which was helpful.
The castle was such a fun and unique place to stay! We had a blast
The small details and decor is fabulous! Loved the spacious bedroom. Bed was super comfy, beautifully decorated and I enjoyed drinking coffee while sitting on my throne. Lol Now, I must explain the “inconvenience” part of my title. The shower in the main castle is still in progress so to shower you must walk to the guest house. Also, when you wake up in the morning and want coffee you have to go to guest house as well. There was no trash can in the main castle, which is where we cooked breakfast one morning. I had to get the bathroom trash an and move to the kitchen. The kitchen has minimal amenities. I needed a plastic spoon or spatula to cook eggs. Husband walked to guest house and found one there. When I went to put on make up there were no mirrors in main castle. Back to guest house I went. Now the spiral stairs in main castle is tight and steep going up to the bedroom. Getting up in the middle of the night to use the restroom was challenging. First night I used the spiral stairs but the second night I went outside the bedroom and used the exterior stairs and went to guest house. I have a bad knee so by the time we left I felt rough. If stairs are no issue for you I definitely recommend a stay here once. As I read in other reviews the road coming in is rough and basically the castle sits in a trailer community full of RVs and single wides. Odd location but never felt unsafe. Lastly, it was relaxing to sit outside. Loved the rock walkway surrounded by trees. It was a nice place to sit and enjoy a glass of wine.
My girlfriends and I had an amazing time at the tiny castle. Accommodations included everything we needed, including a coffee maker, electric skillet, comfy beds and toasty heaters. I highly recommend this place.
What a cool little place to let the imagination run wild. Be a king and queen of the castle! Road in is a little rough but otherwise great place.
Cool property lots of room, we'll stay again!
Loved the decor of the kitchen and master suite! The outside area is wonderful and where we spent most of our time. Bathroom shower and the ladder to the loft is a bit tricky, but we're still young enough to handle it! LOL My sister in law and I found this for our husband's birthday weekend. Wanted something fun and different and we all enjoyed our stay!
Place was nice, area was not so nice if you have a certain color to your skin. We were warned by the nearest grocery person to watch out about driving around with our skin color. Made the stay very scary and less than pleasant. We wanted to stay outside and have a fire but we were too anxious to stay out too late because of the warning. We placed the heavy locks back on the doors on the inside just to be sure no one came around and barely got any sleep.
To get to property you must drive over graveled roads with thousands of pot holes. The bedroom is charming, but the tiny bathroom is down 17 steep stairs and outside. Shower stall is tiny with shower head on ceiling spraying straight down, so ladies if you don't want your hair wet sorry. You brush your teeth in kitchen sink as bathroom has no sink. Kitchen has hot plates to cook on and a microwave. Restaurants are in to town 10 miles away. The outside deck is quite charming, and the Castle looks charming, but looks can be deceiving.
