On your way in our out of the park make sure to stop by Chocolate World! Ride the free ride inside to learn how chocolate is made, then make sure to buy some chocolate to take home with you.

I grew up going to this amusement park and still love going to it. My favorite time to go is in the Fall when it is set up for Halloween. It is also dog friendly so we can bring Tucker. πΆ

Koziar's Christmas Village
This arguably the best light display in the country. Transport yourself back to a quaint little village full of Christmas spirit. The village is full of lights and window displays. You will see Santa, train displays and so much more. π π»πβοΈπ

Try to avoid the weekends because the crowds are huge due to popularity. Thank me later π
