Yet, he purchased other properties in the area and built at least one other house and a large farm, and came to those properties to spend summers, every year. Boldt Castle is still in the process of being finished, so the 3rd and 4th floors are pretty much white washed plaster walls in the rooms, with no fireplaces. But the ground floor and 2nd are done and are spectacular. The grounds are beautiful! A great way to spend an afternoon. Snacks and drinks are available.

The entire island is perfectly maintained with vibrant flowers and gardens that looked immaculate even in late September. There is so much to see and its much bigger than it looks. There is so much attention to detail you can still miss things even after walking around for hours. I saw a couple get married while I was there and I can't even imagine how stunning those photos will turn out! A lot of people have already mentioned the beautiful and tragic history of this castles creation. I love that you can still go tp the upper floors of the castle that are not yet renovated and see the graffiti and signs of decay. The layout of the castle really tells a story and the classical music played in the background really adds to the immersion. There are also audio tours available. So much love was put into the original vision and execution of this project as well as the restoration. There are even heats all over the island. 10/10 would recommend spending a few hours here if you're ever visiting the area.

The shows do seem geared towards the quite elderly. If you're 60 years old, you'll be one of the youngest in the audiences. My only complaint is the theatre is very hot. There's very little air circulating. In honour of the recent Johnny Cash show, I've made up a new verse for the Cash song "I've Been Everywhere".

The Playhouse in Gananoque is summer-stock theatre with two twists. One being locale, and the…read moreother the seasonal program. As such, it stands out as one of the best regional summer theatres in all of Ontario. Firstly, the theatre is found in Gananoque proper right on the banks of the St. Lawrence River, giving its lobby one of the best views of any theatre around. Dock space is also available, allowing you to book a slip to pull up your boat and spend the night after an evening of theatre, making it one of the most unique experiences that you'll have. The program every year has the typical run of theatre favourites that you'd expect from a regional theatre of this kind. That said, the program directors at the playhouse ensure that there is a healthy mix of summer favourites and new Canadian works. This has allowed them to bring in plays like the Wingfield Farm series which through its production in theatres of this kind, has brought mutual success to both the playwright and the theatre. The playhouse also provides a more challenging theatre piece in the early fall, allowing theatre students from Kingston and the surrounding areas the opportunity to see a more demanding piece in a truly distinctive venue. The theatre itself is rustic and smallish, seating over 300 in a close proximity so that everyone is close to the stage, close to the action, and experiencing a unique evening of theatre.
