Experience the Grandeur that is “The Castle”
 
If you are staying with us for a wedding, special event, corporate retreat, or just looking for that special romantic getaway, the Castle at Skylands Manor is quite extraordinary.

Located eight miles off 287, and nestled amongst the Ramapo Mountains, the Castle is located within 1000 acres of the New Jersey Botanical Gardens. Our 24 newly restored guest rooms echo the grandeur of the past while containing all the modern necessities. The New Jersey Botanical Gardens forms the heartland of the property that Francis Lynde Stetson assembled from pioneer farmsteads in the Ramapo Mountains. Stetson named his country estate "Skylands Farms" and maintained a stylist mansion of native granite. He entertained such friends as President Grover Cleveland, Andrew Carnegie, Ethel Barryrmore and J.P. Morgan.

The main house was designed by John Russell Pope in the mid 1920's. Its 54 rooms contains antique paneling and 16th century stained glass. This Tudor showplace is in the popular style of Ecticism. Its vast interiors display late gothic to early renaissance styles. The New Jersey Botanical Gardens appears on both the State and National Registers of Historical Places and is a part of Ringwood State Park.

 		 There is no end to the possibilities that the grounds have to offer. There are 14 private gardens and 5 separate water gardens amongst miles of hiking and biking trails. Relax as you view and stroll amongst the ethereal magnificence of the gardens. In season, Shepard Lake offers swimming, fishing and boating, and sun bathing on its sandy beach. You can also test your skills at the skeet shooting range. Take in the fine restaurants in the surrounding towns, or order in — our 24 hour concierge with spirits and snacks is always available. In the morning, wake up to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and a delectable breakfast.
  • All rooms have plasma flat screen TV's with cable, clock radio, iron, coffee maker and The Castle at Skylands Manor robes and slippers.
