It is called Busboom Castle, located near Dewey, Illinois. My sister, Hive account@jenerallee78, got married there in the summer of 2012. It was built by a local carpenter as a private retreat for himself, and to rent out for vacations and special events.

The castle is situated on a shady, wooded acreage, giving it a peaceful, reclusive setting. It is a perfect place to escape the race of everyday life. We certainly enjoyed the atmosphere and uniqueness of the castle and the grounds.

Please forgive me for the poor quality of the photos. Remember, this was 2012 - I wasn't thinking about making a good Steemit post back then, plus I had an inferior smart phone to take photos.

Here is the entertainment center and living room, viewed from the loft above.

Looking over the dining table and into the living room. The floor plan was wide open and spacious.

View from the loft down into the dining room and kitchen.

There are several bedrooms upstairs, along with a huge master bathroom, of which I don't have any quality photos.

Here are some more built-in bookcases on the upstairs loft.

Here I am with my nephew, Hive account@eliwasson, playing some air hockey in the game room.

But as I said, I wasn't thinking about making good Steemit posts back then. I came across these while searching my external hard drive for other photos, and decided to make a post about the castle, since it is such a charismatic and unique place. Thanks for visiting my blog, and enjoy your day! (It's almost the weekend for we the oppressed working class :)
