We really enjoyed our experience this year! Its even prettier in snow but we enjoyed a pretty warm day which was a good trade-off. It was slightly different from last year's show, i think there was some additions at the end. It is about a mile or so walk and part of that is up (and therefore down) hill. Not always easy with a wagon. We did that last year and went without this year. Pathways can be pretty dark so be prepared. There are stops along the way if someone needs a rest or a snack. They send you an email stating the ... read more

This is the second time we have attended the illumination show. We went on Thursday night there was not much of a crowd there, it was pretty easy to get around. My husband and I especially liked the Treemagination. That display was mesmerizing, we could have spent an hour watching this one in particular. We think that it's well worth the price, never seems to get old. We highly recommend not missing this event. We plan on attending every year. And if you go, be sure to stop in the tent for a cup of hot chocolate, it was deli... read more

My first time was for the winter illumination, it was a lot of fun. I regret never visiting prior, that'll change. Looking forward to many visits

Well done display, first timers & so glad we read reviews to arrive a little later. We arrived around 6:15 no lines, no waiting, no crowds. We had plenty of space along path, was able to interact with all the exhibits & had a wonderful experience. Hot Chocolate was good too!
