    The castle is exquisite. Building is a work of art. Ask John for a tour of the great hall. The story behind it is inspirational.

Company info

Highlands Castle was born from a father's promise to his young son... “Someday I’ll build a house where we both will live. A place where you can bring your friends and create special memories… Someday Jason, I will build you a castle." This defining moment stemmed from the breakup of my marriage at the age of 24. Looking back, my son would likely have never remembered these words. The promise had more to do with a desire to build a better life than an actual castle. It would be almost 5-years before the ideal property presented itself, a mountaintop in Bolton Landing, NY. While clearing the land for the foundation, a picture was being painted. Within a matter of weeks, the most spectacular view in the world was uncovered. It seemed as though this majestic vista had been waiting to be unveiled. How was it, that I would be the one to settle here? Was it simply luck? I believe it was something much greater and that I was led to this specific spot for a reason. Once the foundation was completed, the wood framing construction was to the roof in a few months and the structure began to find its outward appearance. The stonework was a slow, tedious process and the labor of laying up more than 1,000 tons of local granite would take decades. In 1986, I met Yvonne, the woman who 'turned a pile of rocks into a home'. Six years later, my parents would officiate our wedding ceremony. Mom & Dad would perform two more family ceremonies over the years, as my sister Carol was married here in 2002, and my son Jason was also married at Highlands Castle in 2008. Since 1982, the property would evolve into what it is today... a series of three castles where families & friends from all over the world gather to create their own special memories. We hope you'll have an opportunity to visit here one day.
