![]() ![]() He spoke to the children, wished us a Merry Christmas and thanked us for visiting Winter Wonderfest. Once we pulled up, Santa spoke to us through a loud speaker system. A lighted float trailer was on the right with Santa's sleigh. Claus were in a tent on the left with the Schellville Train. As we neared the end of the lane, we entered an area where Santa & Mrs. Each home had little gnomes standing out in front of them. Along the path they had several lighted Christmas trees and little gnome homes. As we drove along the road, we passed lighted displays of aliens, lighted trees, a lighted tunnel or two, lighted archways, toy soldiers, a Christmas church, a huge Christmas tree, a character playing basketball, a snow igloo castle, jumping gingerbread men, a gingerbread house, Santa's sleigh & reindeer, rocking horses and elves.Īfter we passed through the last lighted tunnel, we entered into Santa's village. All across the open field you could see large light up holiday structures. Once we got through the woods, we went under another archway that led us into the lighted display field. Only downside was that the wooded area was rather small, so it did NOT last long. The white speckled lights on the trees almost looked like it was snowing. There were laser lights flashing and dancing among the trees to the music. Once through the gates, we entered through a holly and holiday bow archway, passing into a small wooded area. We were then instructed to tune our radio to the corresponding radio station & to enjoy the show. I would have gladly paid a few dollars so they could each have one. I think they should have provided one activity book per child or at least offered more for purchase at an additional fee. So, all the children in the family basically had to share the one book. We were given ONE activity book per vehicle. We were given one postcard per child that they could use to write a letter to Santa. Staff inquired as to how many children were in the car. We decided just to drive over to the field and purchase admission at the gate. We messaged the host, but got NO response! We looked at purchasing tickets in advance online, but had questions about ticketing. 45 minute drive from mid-Manhattan.We decided to head over to Winter Wonderfest again this year for their holiday lights display.
