The Castle is on a quiet cove with very minimal boat traffic allowing you to have an amazing experience and enjoy nature without the constant noise from the boats that zip around in the main part of the lake. Long private drive and staggering views from the entire back of the house overlooking the pool and lake. Private covered boat slip and 4 adult kayaks (singles) and 2 youth kayaks you can use. 800 feet of gravel road through the forest lead to this hidden gem on the lake.

-There is an accessible dock, however there is not a boat ramp to load/unload boats into/out of the water at the lake so if you are bringing boats or jet ski's you will need to find a nearby ramp. The nearest location is Scruggs #8 boat ramp, 11mi from the Castle. 1755 Dudley Amos Rd, Moneta, VA 24121. There may be hours of operation and fees associated to park at this location. Also, the electricity company (AEP) will drain water to generate electricity at the dam which may lower the water level. We are not responsible for the water level of the lake or the cleanliness or debris in the lake.

-No additional guests as we must adhere to the county occupancy limits and the house will not accommodate more than the listed maximum guests, so no parties or events allowed.
