I’m probably going to offer a fairly unpopular opinion, but I think this place is highly overrated. Don’t get me wrong- they bring it with the Christmas spirit. There’s over 1,000,000 (yes, one million with an M) lights, indoor and outdoor train sets (very low detail, nothing special unfortunately) and a decently cool little village to walk through with a decoration in every which direction you look.
I guess the reason I’m not super into this place like a lot of others are is once you’ve seen it you’ve seen it. They do very little with what they have to change it up annually. I by no means am taking away the effort and hard labor that goes into this set up. It’s definitely impressive in that sense. I just wish there was a little more variety every year.
The most amazing part of this place is when it comes into view on the drive. You’re on some pretty twisty back roads and all of a sudden a panoramic view of vivid colorful bright lights slips into view. If you’ve never been here that is the part that gets you really excited to visit. And in all honesty- it’s worth the visit.
This was, I believe, my third year visiting. These are only a few images I got this time around.
