Event Details

What to Expect
  • An online reservation is required prior to coming to the event.
  • Your reservation time is for your arrival time, not your pony ride time. Pony rides happen later, after you have traveled to the barn. If you will need time in the parking lot to get ready, come 5-10 minutes ahead of time.
  • Please ensure everyone in your group is on time, or they may not be able to travel together. Those on time will need to start on time, and others, if we are able to accommodate them in their lateness, will have to meet up with you later (e.g. in the barn).
  • Dress for the weather. Most of the event is indoors, but some is on a covered wagon, and some is in a large, unheated barn. There is very little distance to walk between covered areas.
  • This is a "linear" event, in that you will progress from activity to activity, at your own pace, ending up back where you started. We ask that people refrain from "going back for a second time."
  • Most people will take about 60-90 minutes to enjoy all of the activities, plus any time afterwards in the café.
  • Although the activities are primarily aimed at children, adults also seem to enjoy them, especially with their children. 
  • This is not a super fancy event with 10 million lights on display! It is simple, traditional, and fun.  Kids find it amazing. Adults enjoy the peacefulness of the country and the relaxed, no-rush atmosphere.
  • Santa does not attend this event. We suspect he is probably at the local mall.
