    Is a great castle with plenty of room for 11 adults with plenty of space to enjoy the outdoor patio and enjoy the evenings outside. All in all great experience.

    The Castle was perfect! The location was ideal for our motorcycle daily rides! We cooked several meals and the kitchen was very well stocked! The home was spacious and very comfortable! We had four couples and it could not have been better! Our Host Rich and Susan were very nice and attentive! Evenings on the back patio with fire pit were great! It was truly an enjoyable stay!!!

    We spent our family vacation week here with ages 10-79. We’ve stayed at several VRBOs and this one is definitely a favorite. The kitchen is very well equipped. The two tables provided plenty of eating space. Everything is very clean. The patio is beautiful and we used the gas grill. We saw two deer and chipmunks while sitting on the patio. The town of Keystone is fun with shops, sky lift, ropes course and several restaurants. We also were able to see Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, The Needles, Sylvan Lake, chuck wagon cookout, horseback riding and kayaking. I would highly recommend this castle for your stay.

    The house was exactly as advertised and the owner was very responsive to questions. We enjoyed our stay and made great use of the back patio area as our grandchildren explored the hill behind the house. Very centrally located to all the activities within the Black Hills. We will definitely be considering it again, when we make a return trip
