We visited Columbus Day weekend and they were doing a haunted house on the weekend and bussing people from a nearby parking lot. It was so much fun! The grounds were so nice to explore and the castle was decorated for Halloween. Even thought you were walking through a haunted castle you could get a very good feel of what the castle is like and it was really cool. Just as you would imagine a medevil castle, right down to the drawbridge.

Winnekenni Castle

Reviewed By nmcardoso - Haverhill, United States

I have been here multiple times and love it every time. Seeing the castle is always cool, it is a beautiful building. My daughters love it. It's always a good go to when needing some outdoor time since it's close to home. We love it here and will continue coming.

Castle Rock

Reviewed By pjgagliardi6 - Rumson, United States

We were not able to go inside the castle or walk the estate grounds themselves as they were under construction. The park area was lovely. Beautiful rock formations, and small beach area. Beautiful, breathtaking views perfect place for our picnic to end our trip. Absolutely lovely.
