Thanks, everyone! Teresa, a caretaker is the only permanent resident on Dark Island. But you can rent the island for weddings and other occasions and you can do an overnight stay in a suite, given a personal tour including the secret passages and served a 6 course dinner and breakfast for $725. a night per person. #11993150

Have to agree with Teresa - that's quite a spread and you captured it in all its grand magnificence! I'd almost be willing to spend that $725 a night for the opportunity of checking out those secret passages!! :). Singer? As in Singer Sewing machine? #11993245
