Be sure to bring your camera as the sunsets are magnificent over Green Lake. John Spicer, who built this grand lake home in 1895 selected this spot for the sunsets and during the autumn season when the moon is full the reflection on the water it is truly transpiring. If you or someone special in your life is celebrating a birthday, anniversary or other special occasion or perhaps you are looking for a romantic getaway or fun girls night out our Fall Wood Fire Dinner is just for you.

On Beautiful Green Lake
This Halloween you can dress up in a costume, act silly, laugh out-loud and enjoy great food in our hilarious interactive Murder Mystery Dinner offered Friday and Saturday nights beginning at 8:00 pm. Let’s get excited about the idea of having fun, like we did when we were young! I remember Halloween as a night filled with friends, fun and acting silly. One of my fondest halloween memories is when we were living in a remote mining town in Indonesia where Halloween was unheard of. My mother wanted my brother and I to have fun, and she knew I enjoyed trick or treating, somehow my mom informed the towns people of this American tradition and that night in the rain, wearing my witch costume that my mom had dyed black with hair dye , I left a trial of black bubbles where ever I went trick or treating, laughing and having a great time.
This Halloween get your family and friends together and make it a MN weekend getaway at our unusual bed and breakfast inn with 17 guestrooms, several of which features a double whirlpool tub and fireplace. Save on lodging with our $99 last minute deal that includes afternoon tea, one nights lodging (excluding John’s Cottage or Raymond’s Cabin) and a four-course breakfast. Sit by the bonfire telling tales and making s’mores.
Things to do in our area: visit our local winery, Glacial Ridge Winery, dress in a costume, go for a haunted hayride, sample wines and have fun at the Wicked Party on Friday, October 30th. Before you head out for an evening of fun enjoy a wonderful Wood Fire Dinner seated in our lakeside dining room. Stroll through the Willmar Jaycees Haunted House, visit Long Lake Antiques, Sibley State Park, Prairie Woods Environmental Learning Center, Three Sisters Amish Furniture Store, Agape Coffee House, Mill Pond Mercantile, Bead Jam Store, Twin Spin Cinema or the Bison Ranch.
Getaway to central Minnesota. Join us at the Inn. Unique bed and breakfast inn, lots of fun, last minute getaway … its a deal. See you soon! Call our reservation hotline. 1-800-821-6675. Or visit us online at http://www.spicercastle.com/index.html
