Pretty cool- in a residential neighborhood and the directions from Google weren't great. If you're hoping to explore, there are definitely some holes in the fence.

The castle is abandoned. It is in private land and fenced off. The access roads to it are very rough so there is a risk of damage to smaller cars.

I found this on tiktok. It’s gorgeous and somewhat otherworldly. It’s definitely an explore at your own risk situation, and there are areas where the floors are falling through. It looks like people get in and party here occasionally — there are old beer/liquor bottles and graffiti. I was excited about seeing this castle, but it definitely exceeded my expectations. We didn’t go into any of the dark areas, but it would be neat to come back with flashlights to check it out.

Equally beautiful and creepy, a few points aren't safe but most good. Definitely not lost its beauty with decaying

A fascinating castle ruin worth a visit when you’re in the neighbourhood. The forest is rapidly reclaiming its territory and the plants and trees growing on and between the castle walls give it an eerie feel. A visit at dusk on Halloween’s eve seemed appropriate

We went in August 2022 and it was an incredible experience. A little complicated to find and there was only one spot in the fence through which it was accessible, but once we got there, it was one of the best abandoned places I've visited so far.

Buchanan castle. Great to see. Very limited parking but no one else there when I stopped by. Amazing history behind this house. There is a fence that stops access inside the castle ruins, there is a hole to climb through if you wanted!! The pictures show the best way to approach and where the path is in relation to where to park.

Absolutely stunning!! Nature has just completely taken over this breathtaking ruin and created such a surreal yet peaceful place, the history of it is so interesting too.

It was a nightmare to find but so worth it in the end!
