Amazing family reunion

Our entire family, 44 of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the castle. The youngest at 18 months to the oldest at 73 and all the ages in between had a wonderful time. We enjoyed spending time eating meals together in the large kitchen and dining area. Only thing that could be better is if they had a few more cooking supplies, bigger pots, pans, pot holders, kitchen towels, garbage bags, a crockpot, and some basic condiments. Having to cart all that felt like I was going camping. Other than adding a few more things to make it easier, we were beyond happy to enjoy the pools, the basketball court, the theatre, all the games in the lower level, the gaming room and everyone loved the quest! The castle was very clean, rooms were very nice, beds were comfy, laundry area was nice, showers and bathrooms were very nice. Perfect place to enjoy our family from all over the country! Thank you!

Words nor pictures can truly describe this property. The wall details and lighting gives it a castle feel. On pics and video the property can look creepy but in person it’s breathtaking. Each bedroom has its own bathroom but there are also half bathrooms throughout the castle. The kitchen is massive with plenty of refrigerator, cabinet and counter space. But the best part is all of the other amenities…. Basketball court, mini golf, theatre room, gaming room, infant/toddler rooms, conference room, sitting rooms, mini bowling, yoga room, 3 swimming pools, walking forest, with the cherry on top being the scavenger hunt with secret rooms throughout.

BEST BACHELOR PARTY

We stayed at the Hilltop Castle through the weekend for my bachelor party. SO convenient that everything is in the castle so you never have to leave! We used their chef service which was awesome. We played basketball/pickleball for hours. I never thought we would be into a scavenger hunt but the secret rooms are like speakeasys which was the cherry on top. Amazing venue, amazing service, so glad we chose this place. Great service from Matt the house manager, and Eric the manager for the catering food service.

Amazing venue for a team offiste!

We hosted a team of 22 for our team offsite at the Hilltop Castle, and everyone is saying it was hands down the best one we've had yet! Matt was incredibly helpful during check-in and super responsive for any questions we had! The castle is expansive, and the rooms were very comfortable for sleeping. The kitchen and dining area were spacious, and it made cooking for a group of that size super easy (great hosting vibes). The fire pit area was a huge hit, and there's a neighbor who sells firewood onsite, which made it incredibly easy to buy more wood as needed. Matt also suggested the trails that they created on the property, which made for a peaceful morning walk for the team. All in all, we had a GREAT time, and we hope to be back soon, especially when we can utilize the pools!
