Hello all,

I recently was on vacation in a cottage at Crystal Beach Fort Erie, Ontario Canada. The owner of the cottage said if my family and I really would like to see something cool than drive down the street a couple miles and take a look at this private castle. He told us the story about the castle which was, a local billionaire had a lot of land and wanted a Castle so he had one built. I was also told that he had some airplanes and was not aloud to built a landing pad so instead he built a large narrow pond 1000 meters + that he'd be able to land his pontoon airplanes in. The only other info I have is while the modern day castle was being built, the owner lived in a blue train box car that is located directly next to the castle.

[b]Dose anyone have any more information/pics on this privately owned modern day castle? Knowledge is Greatly Appreciated!![/b]

It is located in Fort Erie, Ontario Canada off of Ott. Street (blocked off drive way leads to Ott. Street near Garrison Road)

The Castle looks as it was made of stone with lots of windows and had 4 peaks in each corner that were at least 6 storys high.

Thanks,

Brent

I found this castle after being told it was in this general area. Walking up the drive way is really wild, this guy must have purchased building that were going to be knocked down because he had piles and piles of bricks and other crap like the stuff in the photos, this would forsure cut down on building costs.
