There was also a Santa’s Village in northern Illinois. It shut down about 5 or 6 years ago I think, I used to go there when I was a kid. It looked just like the pictures posted on here… brought back SOOOO many memories!!

How fun! We used to go to Santa’s Village in Lake Arrowhead CA. My mom actually worked there when she was a teenager. She made cotton candy.

I grew up visiting the one in New Hampshire. There is also a Story Land there, celebrating all things related to Nursery Rhyme’s. Both parks are so dear to me, my sisters and I loved them so! I can not wait to bring my baby when she is old enough to enjoy it!

JEALOUS! I grew up north of Santa Cruz, in Fremont, CA and somehow wound up in Denver. My husband and I dream of moving to Santa Cruz, seriously, our favorite city on Earth. What an awesome little park and what an awesome memory!
