Hidden in rural Minnesota in a small town called Spicer, you’d never expect to find an epic castle like this one. The Spicer Castle Inn & Restaurant is a truly stunning venue, and staying on the grounds means stepping into your very own fairytale.

When you first arrive, you'll be treated to the epic outdoor views of the building, which was completed in 1895 by John Spicer. From the sprawling lawn and patio...

To the big windows and stunning architecture facing the lake...

This building is truly one of a kind. You'll also be treated to views of the surrounding cottages, where you can enjoy more private stays while still basking in the beauty of the main Inn.

Head inside to travel back in time and experience the fabulous decor and atmosphere that will makes every experience magical.

Always stop and eat in the restaurant, even if you aren't staying the night. They host regular murder mystery diners which provide an adventure for the whole family!

There are plenty of gorgeous patio views to be found...

Spending a few days here means an epic lakeside escape, and you'll love being able to live in this Midwestern dreamland where you're well cared for by John Spicer's great-granddaughter Mary.

And in the winter, the castle absolutely sparkles under a layer of snow!
