Being a history buff gave me a deeper appreciation of the castle and builder. Union General Palmer served with Grant and built railroads later accumulating his great wealth. The castle is impressive and worth the modest investment. I was a bit disappointed in how little of the castle you see. If you enjoy history, and old castles, worth the time.

We went to high tea at the castle. Unless you stay here this is best way to see cattle. Tea was fun and then they let you walk around. Cool to be on grounds. Tea is about an hour and then need no more than an additional hour to walk around.

I love this castle! I've had a private tour and there are really fun nooks and cranny's to its architecture. And great stories of its history. If you come to Colorado Springs, you should definitely visit Glen Eyrie. They have a wonderful tea service that is open to the public, if you make reservations. They also have fantastic conferences and... More

Take time to have tea at one of the scheduled Tea Times! This is another testament of God's work! It is in a beautiful setting which was miraculously saved from the Canyon fire of 2012. Hear the story about it from one of the staff!

This is a beautiful home/castle located close to the Garden of the Gods. It can easily be missed. We just went for a tour and tea that lasted about 2 hours. The castle had been refurbished by the prior owner and was in very good shape. The grounds are amazing. The General Palmer family history was very interesting to hear... More

Our tour of the Glen Eyrie Castle was fascinating. Being a history buff that feels like he should have lived in the 19th Century, I was impressed with the castle, grounds and story behind it. Our tour guides, LeRoy and Betty, although volunteers, were excellent abmassadors for this beautiful castle. They brought the place to life with their discriptions of... More

We came to Glen Eyrie for the 4th year in a row. The staff really is so great with accommodating for food allergies. We have gluten and dairy allergies, and they make it seem as if it is absolutely no problem. The room we stayed in this year was General Palmer's daughters. It was so cute! The bathrooms in the...

I love that the religious organization that owns this castle has made is accessible to the public several times a year with Christmas Teas, Christmas Madrigal Banquets, etc. I even got married here! It's a stunningly beautiful castle in a hidden gem of a location in Colorado Springs. HIGHLY recommend the Christmas Tea.

Cold winter day but we still enjoyed the tour of this home built by the founder of Colorado Springs. The grounds and castle are lovely. The volunteer tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. The group size of 28 is too big. The cost is a reasonable $6.00 per person for 90 minutes. The room for the tea is lovely.... More
