If you want privacy and no interaction, you will get that as well.

We hope that we have an opportunity to delight you and your group.

Handicap accessible
My mother-in-law uses a wheelchair and frequents the Chateau. She can not do stairs but can get by with a walker most of the time. She can use a wheel chair to get to the front door where there is a single step to get in which is not a problem for her. She uses the walker while in the house. The main floor of the house is wheel chair accessible. This includes most of the common areas - kitchen, dining room, living room, master suite, 3 bathrooms, library / office. She sleeps in the master bedroom with my wife (needs 24 hour care). The upstairs of the house, the basement of the house, lake, dock etc. are not accessible.
