Once upon a time, there was an upscale, medieval Castle...nestled in 5 acres of enchanted forest, it offers secluded peace and quiet, a perfect romantic getaway! Only 9 miles from Champaign/Urbana and UI campus. Use the only working drawbridge in the USA to cross the moat (fed by gargoyle waterfalls) while a trumpet fanfare plays! ADA accessible, including an oak and brass elevator. Four bedrooms with queen-size beds, 3 full and 2 half baths, full kitchen and laundry priviledges, outdoor grille and firepit (charcoal and firewood provided). Coffee, sodas, bottled water, breakfast goodies and snacks included. Huge 144" tv, hundreds of DVD's and music CD's, two libraries, WiFI, DirecTV. Nature trails, air hockey table, pirate ship, etc. Sorry, no parties and no pets. This is my home, built it myself (took 9 years), so I'm very protective of it. Respectful guests only, please!

Busboom Castle was on HGTV again for the tenth time. The show is called "Home Sweet Castle" from the series "Look What I Did!". It was also featured on PBS "Illinois Stories", station WSEC and in numerous newspapers and magazines.
The castle was recently featured on a local tv show! Here is the link to the video - http://illinoishomepage.net/fulltext?nxd_id=366962

Villa Rentals Reviews for Romantic CASTLE near U of I campus, Champaign in MahometDecember 08, 2010Reviewer: Sue From: Cedarburg, WIFour family units convened in this area for a weekend celebration. The senior members of our party thoroughly loved the music and drawbridge lowering upon our arrival. This property was absolutely wonderful for all of us. We were able to have meals at the castle, take walks on the fabulous property, watch movies, play air hockey--you get the picture. I hope we are able to use it again in the future! July 15, 2010Reviewer: p griffin From: champaign, ilI was turned down on renting the castle just because I mentioned the word party for my girlfriend's 30th birthday. We wanted to have her parents and other guests from out of town come and stay with us to celebrate. January 03, 2010Reviewer: Bill Jones From: Mahomet, IL.The castle was just perfect for our family Christmas! Had more than enough room for dining and festivities with over 25 attendees. The overnight accomodations were great for the out of town guests and everyone raved about the place. We already reserved for next year! Thanks Bruce! October 19, 2009Reviewer: Kirk From: Seattle, WA
A group of old college friends came back for the UI homecoming and the Castle was the perfect venue. We were close to Champaign and all the activities there, yet we could drive back to the castle easily and catch up with each other. The kitchen, dining room and family room were all big and beautiful so we had several places to gather and talk. September 20, 2008Owner-Supplied Testimonial
