Parties and Banquets are subject to both a Facility Rental Fee, and Food Minimum Revenue.
Your Facility Fee provides you with exclusive use of The Castle for up to four hours, set-up of all tables and chairs, and clean-up. Any event lasting longer than four hours will be charged an additional $100 per hour.
Note that Saturdays between April 1st and November 30th are in high demand for weddings. At the beginning of each year we place those Saturdays on hold for our brides. As the year proceeds, we release those Saturdays for parties and banquets based on availability and the revenue potential of your event. If you are planning a Saturday event between April and November, please give Cyndi Durham a call at 706-344-8502. For every other day of the year, please see the pricing grid below:
