From the reviews
This is a very cool historical self-guided tour in the house and on the grounds. There is a guided tour of the basement which shows all the invention Thomas Plant had implemented into his Castle. Beautiful grounds. Occasionally, they have dinner & music nights in the summer months which are fun and quite delicious.
We got married in October 2025 at CITC and it was an absolute dream! Audrey and her team were extremely helpful and made sure our questions were answered and our vision was executed flawlessly.
Visiting Castle in the Clouds is truly a one-of-a-kind experience that combines history, nature, and charm all in one place. Set in a beautifully preserved historic estate, the property instantly transports you back in time with its classic architecture and timeless atmosphere.
I didn't know this place existed. We didn't go up to the castle, but we did walk around the grounds and go into the restaurant and bar area of the barn. It was really nice and they had a nice fire going. The outdoor patio here has an amazing view of the lakes.
Getting married at Castle in the Clouds
A castle wedding is the once-in-a-lifetime, storybook kind — the grand staircase, the ballroom, the gardens and turrets your photos will live on forever. Castle weddings commonly run $10,000–$40,000+ depending on the date, guest count, and how much is included, so ask for a written quote for your season — Castle in the Clouds doesn’t publish a set price, and tiers move fast. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you’d actually get married — a ballroom that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you’ll want to walk the path your guests take from the gates to the ceremony to the reception. Second, bring your real questions: what’s included with the venue fee (tables, chairs, setup, teardown), the catering and bar policy, whether you can stay overnight on-site, the rain plan for a garden ceremony, and the music curfew. Fairytale dates at castle venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what’s open in your season before you leave.
Galas & corporate events at Castle in the Clouds
Reviews and the castle's own info mention galas, corporate events, or private parties at Castle in the Clouds — castle venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
