Things to do
Rye Colorado - Local Attractions Bishop Castle

Bishop Castle

See Jim Bishop's creation! This beautiful castle was built by hand by Jim Bishop from 1969 to 2019 one stone, one log, one weld at a time. The late Jim Bishop passed in 2024, but his legacy lives on in this wonderful creation.

No more than 10 minutes from Lake Isabel, Bishop Castle is open 365 days a year, sun-up to sun-down. This great attraction is free, but donations are appreciated to keep it running!

Great Sand Dunes National Park

Colorado's Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve has the tallest sand dunes in North America, covering about 30 square miles.  While they are not the closest attraction to San Isabel, experiencing this park is worth while if you are from out of town! About a 2-2.5 hour drive from us, we also recommend stopping at Zapata Falls on your way.
