Boldt Castle

We stepped off the boat and began our steady walk up the island to find that we had chosen a day that Boldt Castle was hosting a Wine & Cheese tasting event...along with a wedding. Both were extremely enjoyable to be a part of while we took in all of the island and learned of the home's history.





Much of the home is not finished, but here are some pictures of the rooms that are.


The library is always my favorite place in a home like this. The fire places in every room were just immense!
This one upstairs bedroom that was finished seemed very romantic, with river views from all four windows, a fire place and a private bath.
When looking straight up the central staircase, this it the ceiling. Just gorgeous!


We finally reached the very top...after starting in the basement...and I was exhausted! Thank God for the elevator going down. :D Boldt Castle was such fun.

What a fun getaway just the two of you! My Grandma still talks about going there and seeing the castle. Such a great place to visit. Glad you got away!
