With a bath on each level this home can accommodate up to 12 people. There's queen beds in 4 bedrooms and a king in the master as well as a double bunk in the larger upstairs bedroom. The entire house has been newly refinished and refurbished and is waiting for your family and friends. In addition to the more than one hundred years of history, the house comes with gas grill, plenty of offstreet parking, nearly an acre of lawn, a back patio and a front porch. The house comes with all appliances, cooking equipment, washer and dryer, two full baths, towels and linen changed at least weekly.

Love the Castle!
Our family has stayed here several times and absolutely love it! Many new updates that enhanced our experience. Location is perfect! The castle home felt like home while we were there. Clean and spacious for our family of 12. We have made many memories over the years and can’t wait to make more! We will be back.

Castle
Rooms were tight but had all the beds we were looking for. Location was VERY convenient. Parking was not clear. We parked in neighbor’s property when we arrived after dark. Deck and Patios were wonderful.

Very responsive to our requests
Upon arriving at the property, we discovered that the house had not been properly cleaned by the cleaning company and the previous guests had left the grill in an atrocious condition. The owners of the house were extremely apologetic and sent us a bottle of wine as an apology for the cleanliness issue and actually ordered a new grill the day we made them aware of the situation. While I believe the home could use some improvements, our stay overall was pleasant. The park right across the street was a bonus for anyone with a family as well.
