    Absolutely beautiful. A bit chilly, but the hot chocolate definitely helped. They did a fantastic job with the lights, and my children absolutely loved it. It's worth the $10 to take the time to drive through and check it out.

    Clean park with many picnic tables, some along the lakeside. Many pavilions for rental that have lights and power. Food for a fan. Splash pad, mini golf, snack bar, and rental pedal boats. Small park train for the kids. Restrooms spread out in the park and clean. Christmas light visit in 2024 was great. Only 10$ per vehicle. About 20 minutes to get into the car pay line. About 30 minutes to drive through. Good value. It’s not Callaway Gardens and I appreciate that. About 1/5 the price and about the same time and amount of lights.

    Great playground for kids, putt putt golf, and train rides on weekends. There are lots of hiking trails across the road in a garden area.Trails run all over the side of the mountain.Dog friendly hiking , just bring bags with in case use bathroom on trail.Otherwise it is a dog friendly area. My fur baby loves running all over the trails here, even running in a creek that has slow running low water in areas.Then there are quite deep running waters and bridges to cross those areas. They also, on the other side of the park, have a concession building, a Miliarty memorial that is just breathtaking. Rides putt putt and food not expensive. Everything else is free. Just be respectful and throw trash in very visible garbage cans throughout beautiful park.
