Overview
See Enchanting Christmas Displays (and Santa!) From Our Heated Boats
Begin your magical journey with a walk through the Christmas Festival where you’ll enjoy beautiful decorations and photo opportunities. Kids can also send their wish list to Santa and everyone can grab a festive drink from Santa’s Bar to take on the boat. Then, ship off on our Christmas cruise boat, decked out in holiday lights and decorations, for an enchanting tour of holiday lights on the lake. Sneak a peek at the shoreline for Santa Claus himself, and hear your child’s name read from his “Nice List!”
