Wonderful stay at The Castle!!
Our family had a blast at The Castle, a beautiful, spacious home with so much character! The kitchen was very accommodating, and had everything we needed to cook delicious meals. The pool was so awesome, the kids didn't want to leave! We were also able to make some smores with the gas fire pit and lounge around on the many seating areas on the pool patio. The landscaping was relaxing, and the house felt far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We would absolutely stay again!!

We had a family reunion at The Castle and there was so much room to move about! LOVED the safety switch for kids accessing the pool. The pool with a slide was a HUGE hit — beautifully maintained! We all loved cooking in the massive kitchen! The rooms all had their own bathroom and everything was very clean. The property manager was VERY responsive, friendly, and accommodating. If given the chance, we’d stay again next year!

Great for large family
Wow! Incredible home. We had big family gathering here. Everyone had plenty of space and privacy. Grounds were beautiful, and well manicured providing a safe place for grandkids to roam and play. Pool was perfect and we loved the safety features to prevent grandkids from getting into pool area. Awesome experience and reasonably priced. No deception, better than advertised. Highly recommend. Thanks for letting us utilize your wonderful home.
Absolutely amazing time at the castle! We had all of the family - adults loved having 4 king beds - that’s practically impossible to find! The place was SO spacious! You could have kids sleep on air mattresses in the gigantic closets of their parents’ rooms. And if you need a little peace, there are plenty of options for solitude. The pool and game room were huge hits. The grandkids still can’t decide which was more fun. Even the adults loved the pool slide! There were several floats and pool toys on the property. The house itself is really interesting - true medieval castle vibe. It’s not in pristine condition, so it’s easy to have your dog or little kids without being paranoid over everything. We do these family gatherings often and eat all of our meals at home. This kitchen did not have nearly as much in the way of dishes or cooking utensils as we’ve had elsewhere, but we made it work with paper plates and frequent utensil washing. Those stairs you see in the photos will cause some pause with toddlers. You do have to keep an eye on them. Overall, we had a blast and would love to return! Kate was responsive, kind, and personable. Love love loved the castle!

The property is wonderful for entertaining. We were a group of 14 and there were ample bedrooms and entertaining spaces.

Great Home for an 80th Birthday!
What a beautiful home this is! There were 10 of us and we had plenty of space and were able to celebrate my Father-in-Law's 80th Birthday perfectly. The pool and fireplaces are fully operational and are so nice to have on a cool evening or morning. We greatly appreciate the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful spacious home with our Family, Thank you!

Five Stars for The Castle!
Our extended family of 9 (6 adults and 3 kids) had wonderful long weekend at The Castle! The home was spacious, clean, and well-equipped for a larger group like ours. We especially loved the pool and outdoor area, which quickly became our favorite hangout spot. There was more than enough room for everyone to relax without feeling crowded, and the setup made it easy for both the kids and adults to enjoy their time. We truly didn’t want to leave and would gladly stay here again!

The castle is a lovely home. The pool was a big hit! It was nice to feel secluded but 10 mins from grocery store and Walmart does deliver to house. Great communication with host during entire process. Kate was
We absolutely loved our stay at the castle. The house and an amazing! The pool is so much fun. We were able to sit outside and just relax in the quiet very private yard. The beds were comfortable. Everyone had their own suite and privacy. The game room was so much fun. I would absolutely recommend this property and would stay here again!
Beautiful place with a lot of space. Had some issues with a squeaky pipe in bathroom, dirty grill by pool, loose dishwasher from cabinet and the kitchen pots and pans were not suitable for a party of 12. These are all things that are easy to improve.
This property was great. Not a lot of things to do in the general vicinity, but that was another one of the attractions for us. The house offers enough to see and do. We had outdoor movie night on the upstairs patio, s’mores at the fire pit and a murder mystery game was a perfect evening as the house gave the perfect setting for this game. The host was very communicative and very quick to respond with any questions. Would definitely recommend for large families with kids. We had 6 adults and 9 kids 3-14 and we had more than enough space to stretch out and make great memories!
