Incredible stay!

We had such a great time. Perfect for an 11 year old boy - he LOVED exploring the castle and grounds, and I loved the gorgeous furnishings and comfy room (and I’ll be honest, I also loved exploring the grounds). David is so so so personable and welcoming. I only wish we had more time to hang out!

Weekend adventure

We had so much fun exploring the castle and learning the history of the property. There are so many unique trinkets throughout the castle, every time we walked in a room we found something new to look at. The stay was an experience in itself!The castle is very clean and our room stayed nice and cool. We went to Charleston state park to check out rose island.David and Nikki were great hosts!We looked forward to returning again soon to explore some more!
