Glen Eyrie castle

We have just arrived home from an incredible place! This weekend was our annual Marriage Retreat at church. It was held this year at Glen Eyrie, a real castle right outside of Colorado Springs. It was built in the early-1900s and was just amazing!

We stayed in the Castle Room 201, which was actually the bedroom of General Palmer, the founder of Colorado Springs and the original owner/builder of the castle. It was so fun and so exciting to be in such a cool place with so much history. We slept in the same bed he did and even used his shower! It was a real claw-foot bathtub with a funky little shower system. It was a wonderful place, and I hope we are able to visit again in the future!
