Our last visit today is the Bothwell Lodge (Castle on the Bluff) located atop a 120-foot bluff, you can miss it. Between 1897 and 1928, the large, castle-like stone house was constructed or John Homer Bothwell, a leading Sedalia lawyer. Set on top of three natural caves, Bothwell Lodge consists of four sections built with native rock from the estate grounds. The recreational retreat features a 12,000-square-foot lodge constructed in the early 20th century Arts and Crafts style of architecture.
