A company favorite!
My company has held it's offsite retreat at the Hilltop Castle 2 years in a row. Everyone loves it and wishes we stayed longer.
The onsite catering is very good and accommodating to food allergies and preferences. The activities folks took our team building to another level! Matt and Karen are always so helpful and responsive to questions before or during our events. We've been to many places and our team loves the Castle and its adjacent properties the best....even if some have to share a bathroom.
Our stay here was great! So many activities to do, you never get bored. It’s big and beautiful and communicating with the property manager was very easy! Would stay again!

The castle was amazing ! The kids loved the secret passages , family feud game was a lot of fun too. Great venue !
The venue was perfect for our 37 family members ranging from 18 mos. thru 72 years! There is something for everyone ... This would also be a great place for a corporate event!
This is a magical property. Not only are the accommodations beautiful, but there is so much to do! The space is large enough that our group of 30 never felt crowded.
