Boldt Castle - 1,000 Islands, NY

Boldt Castle was Built by George Boldt for his wife Louise. Building was near completion when she died and workers were instructed to stop construction and he never returned to the Island.

The Playhouse


The Arche modeled after Roman monuments was the formal entry for a launch carrying guests from larger yachts anchored in deeper water. A drawbridge was to provide a promenade on the embankment of the Swan Pond - but was never completed.
