The Philosopher
A Medieval-Inspired Castle Retreat in Broken Bow

The Philosopher is an architectural retreat shaped by stone, proportion, and imagination. As the first in the Broken Bow Castles collection, it offers a rare balance of medieval influence, thoughtful design, and modern comfort—created for guests seeking privacy, beauty, and a meaningful escape from the ordinary.

Set deep within a forest of towering pines, The Philosopher feels both grounded and elevated. Towers, bridges, and layered spaces invite stillness, conversation, and reflection—an intentional retreat where time slows and surroundings matter.

A Castle Designed for Retreat

The Philosopher features five private king suites, two half baths, and expansive multi-level indoor and outdoor living areas. At ground level, a long, narrow forest pool rests quietly beside the structure, while elevated decks and connecting passages create moments of pause throughout the home.

Each suite is intentionally separated, offering privacy and autonomy—ideal for adult travelers and groups seeking space to unwind. One suite is thoughtfully designed to accommodate families traveling together, allowing shared stays without disrupting the overall sense of calm and refinement.

Every suite includes:
A king bed
Private bathroom
Private exterior access
A personal coffee station for unhurried mornings

Private King Suite with Galley Kitchen — The Badger
Grounded and serene, this suite reflects an earthy, contemplative atmosphere. A turret reading nook and expansive windows frame views of the surrounding forest, with distant glimpses of Broken Bow Lake through the canopy.
The suite includes a private bath with custom shower and a fully equipped galley kitchen featuring a full-size refrigerator, glass cooktop, microwave, and dishwasher—ideal for extended stays or guests who appreciate independence.

Courtyard Hall and Game Room
Across the courtyard, guests gather in a shared hall designed for leisure and conversation. A competition billiards table, shuffleboard, and full bar make this an inviting space for evenings spent together.
A nearby turret half bath and a mature, decades-old plant bring warmth and texture to the room, reinforcing the sense of time and craftsmanship within the castle walls.

Private King Suite with Turret Shower and Deck — The Raven
Elegant and composed, this suite balances restraint and detail. A lighted vanity anchors the bath, while a vaulted turret shower with body sprays opens to expansive forest views.
Guests enjoy access to a mostly private deck overlooking treetops and the distant lake—well suited for reading, writing, or quiet contemplation.

Private King Suite with Forest Views — The Python
Cool and understated, this suite emphasizes privacy and connection to the landscape. West-facing picture windows frame panoramic treetop views, creating a sense of elevation and calm.
The bath includes a custom shower with body sprays, a separate water closet, and a carefully considered layout that feels both protective and open.

King Suite with Integrated Bunks and Playscape Access — The Griffin
Strong, versatile, and thoughtfully appointed, this suite functions as both a refined king chamber and a discreet bunk room, ideal for families or mixed-age groups wishing to remain together.
At the center of the space is a gorgeous, ornate Marge Carson king bed, complemented by:
One set of queen-over-queen bunks
One set of twin-over-twin bunks
A pair of accent chairs and a small coffee table provide a quiet sitting area for reading or morning coffee. Glass pass-through garage doors on both ends fill the room with natural light and open to forest views.

Just beyond the private rear deck, a wooded playscape offers a safe, imaginative space for younger guests—close enough for easy supervision while remaining visually discreet within the landscape.

Primary Tower Suite with Spa Bath and Steam — The Tower
At the highest level, the Tower Suite offers a private retreat above the treeline. The bathing space features an immersive shower experience with multiple body sprays, a steam generator, and operable windows that allow for fresh air and sunset views.
Glass doors on two sides fully retract, creating a light-filled, elevated atmosphere reminiscent of a refined treehouse. The bed is substantial and inviting, anchoring the room with quiet authority.
Adjacent to the suite is an additional sleeping area for two, furnished with a daybed and trundle.

The Great Hall Kitchen and Dining
Connected by bridges and turret passages, the castle’s central gathering space features a royal dining table positioned before a striking electric fireplace, all framed by forest views.
The kitchen is outfitted with commercial-grade Thermador appliances, including:
24” refrigeration column
24” freezer column
48” gas range with built-in griddle
Large triangular island for preparation and gathering
Pantry and generous storage
A nearby half bath features reflective surfaces and layered lighting that complement the architectural character of the hall.

Forest Pool and Grounds
At ground level, a 60-foot narrow pool extends along the base of the castle. Four feet deep and designed for lounging, it mirrors the linear geometry of historic water features while remaining modern and understated.
A triangular hot tub rests nearby, partially shielded by the forest and integrated into the landscape for privacy and relaxation.

Seasonal Amenities
Certain amenities at The Philosopher are thoughtfully adjusted throughout the year to ensure comfort, safety, and the best possible guest experience.

Forest Pool
The forest pool is seasonally heated, with water temperatures maintained at approximately 80°F when conditions allow. Heating is typically used during cooler months and may be limited or unavailable during periods of extreme outdoor temperatures. Pool heating is not generally used during warmer seasons.
Hot Tub
The hot tub is available year-round and integrated into the landscape for privacy and relaxation. Temperature adjustments may vary with seasonal conditions.
Fireplaces
All fireplaces are electric and available for use year-round, offering warmth and ambiance at the touch of a button.

Additional Details
Sleeps 18 comfortably in beds
Pet-friendly for up to two small dogs (25 lbs max)
Complimentary Wi-Fi (service reliability may vary due to forest location)

An Invitation to Step Away

The Philosopher is not themed lodging—it is a thoughtfully designed retreat shaped by medieval influence, craftsmanship, and place.
For guests seeking quiet luxury, architectural character, and space to reconnect with one another, The Philosopher offers something rare.
