Hatley Castle was designed by renowned British Columbia architect Samuel Maclure for James Dunsmuir. Using only the finest materials, builders, stonemasons and detail carpenters only took 18 months to construct the building from 1908 until 1910. The Neptune Steps to the north of the castle were added as part of extensive development of the estate by Boston based landscape architects, Brett and Hall from 1912-1914.
