The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

You Don't Have to Go to Europe to See A Castle-- Part 1

We've got 'em right here in the good old U.S.A..

From the August 25th Yahoo! Travel/Budget Travel "10 awe-inspiring American castles" by Justin Ocean.

The article has pictures and much more information.  I'm just listing them, how many rooms, telling where they're located and price of admission.  In the first five, I only knew of #2.
