Our Story

Once a vibrant hub of entertainment, our building began its life as the Windmill Dinner Theater, where guests enjoyed delicious meals alongside live performances by talented local actors. During the 1960s, the stage even welcomed iconic entertainers like Wayne Newton, Charley Pride, and Willie Nelson—making it a landmark of unforgettable evenings.

When we first discovered the property, the original theater had long since faded into history, but the building itself remained—a proud testament to its past with its striking mansard roof, a hallmark of classic French architecture. Inspired by this unique character, we wanted a name that honored the building’s charm and elegance.

Since mansard roofs often grace chateaus—grand French country estates or castle-inspired homes—the name “Chateau” felt like the perfect fit. Combined with our scenic location on Forest Park Boulevard, Chateau at Forest Park was born—a place where history, beauty, and celebrations come together in unforgettable ways.
