Welcome to Mistletoe Farm

The beginning of a cherished tradition

Mistletoe Farm is a place where horse-drawn wagons carry guests through a Christmas village, reindeer wait in a lantern-lit barn, and the simple traditions of Christmas are shared, one guest at a time.

Whether you’re visiting with children, grandchildren, friends, loved ones, or simply enjoying a peaceful holiday outing on your own, we hope your visit becomes the beginning of a cherished Christmas tradition.

The adventure begins

“Good evening and welcome to Mistletoe Village. I’m so glad you could make it. Tonight, I’d like to tell you a story.”Hamish the elf, your storyteller

It was a perfect Christmas Eve in Mistletoe Village. Clear skies, the North Star shining, the sleigh loaded with gifts. Then Old Man Winter raised his crystal weather ball.

Now a fierce blizzard has forced Santa and his reindeer out of the sky, and the elves need your help.

Climb aboard to find out what happens next!

An evening at Mistletoe Farm

Four stops during your visit

Reindeer on wood chips in the Reindeer Barn

First stop

The Reindeer Barn

Your visit begins here. Wood chips underfoot, softly glowing lanterns, traditional sleighs, leather tack, evergreen garlands, and the quiet company of our reindeer.

Just like the sleigh barn where Santa’s elves ready his team on Christmas Eve.

Second stop

Mistletoe Lodge

A heated gathering place inspired by the North. Warm up with complimentary hot chocolate, a chocolate-chip cookie or a fresh sugar waffle. Browse our Christmas Market, crack open a geode for a one-of-a-kind ornament, or stuff your own plush animal friend.

Every geode sparkles like Old Man Winter’s crystal weather ball.

Third stop

Visit Santa Claus

Inside Mistletoe Lodge, Santa welcomes guests all evening. Whether it’s a child’s very first visit, a Christmas wish, or simply a hello, some familiar faces never need an introduction.

Fourth stop

The Wagon Story Tour

Climb aboard a horse-drawn wagon for an approximately 20-minute journey through Mistletoe Village. At each stop, the tale of Santa and the Perilous Christmas Eve unfolds through handcrafted scenes and lifelike characters, with a carol or two sung together along the way.

The elves will need your singing voices. You’ll see why!
