The Castle Museum is operated by the Meagher County Historical Society. It includes period furniture, photos, mineral samples, clothing and artifacts from the region's past.

It is a two-story granite mansion upon an elevated basement on a hilltop overlooking the City of White Sulphur Springs. According to its NRHP nomination, "with its heavily rusticated stone (the back, or east facade is layed up in field stone), [it] is a very fine frontier rendition of the late 19th century Romanesque Style." It is squarish, about 40 by 40 feet (12 m × 12 m) in plan, with addition of two full height towers on the south side.[2]
