We love seeing the new decorations every year.
We went early this year. Before Thanksgiving. My daughter and I go annually. We love seeing the new decorations every year. This is the first year we stopped for s’more’s. It’s usually crazy. But we were the last time slot of the night and it was cold and very early in the season. Definitely worth it! We always get the hot chocolate. It’s our absolute favorite.

It was absolutely beautiful!
Thank you to all who dedicated creating and putting up such a beautiful light display and all the hard work to run it after hours. There were many teens working hard, being kind, attentive, respectful, keeping everything clean and well stocked, smiling, stoking the fire. It was a beautiful experience! Thank you!!
