You always here about castles all over Europe, but what about here in the states? Well there is one we found built back in 1897 by a General Carroll whom was the son of a civil war General.
The castle has 45 rooms with its tower standing 75 feet.
This great castle is located off the Hudson River in New York and is an attraction you do not want to miss out on. Its not everyday you get to see a castle up and close.
Following General Carroll's death in 1916, his widow and children, Caramai, Arthur and Lauren, occupied the Castle until 1940, when it was rented for a brief period to a local school. In 1981, the town of Tarrytown designated the Castle a historic landmark, protecting the outside structure from ever being changed.
So instead of staying at any hotel if you decide to come and visit, why not spend the night in the castle ?
Unlike the passed where there where no telephones or modern equipment like we have today, this castle has been updated and moved up to present day furnishings. So theres no need to worry if you will have to rough it as they did in that time period. As a matter of fact you will find it a great family vacation to explore a medieval time period or perhaps a great place to get married in if your thinking about a place to do it. They have a full wine cellar for you to choose your favorite wine to all the accommodations you will need to make your trip a memorable one. Make sure to make your reservations early.
