Sip your seasonal beverage of choice in Santa’s Living Room where visitors cozy up in an armchair and admire the larger than life Santa sculpture that doubles as a fireplace.

Kids will enjoy Santa’s Workshop where they can tinker, help him make toys, and admire the work of his elves. After some hard work, enjoy some play time (and photo opps), taking in the illuminated Christmas trees, candy canes, giant ornaments, and best of all, the larger-than-life, giant North Pole Snow Globe. It’s so festive and fun that you’ll wish you could jump inside.

At the end of the candy cane lane, families will find Santa’s Sleigh inviting them for a ride. Hop on in the sled and admire the picture perfect panoramic views around you. Smile for the most beautiful snap with the Manhattan Bridge and city skyline and sights illuminated behind you in the background. If you’re lucky, Santa may even crash your photo!

These private and semi-private glass houses are available for reservations and an additional food menu, including Santa’s s’mores, Rudolph’s truffle ravioli, baked mac ‘n’ cheese, Santa’s snack cones and more. Kids are sure to love the mac ‘n’ cheese served in ice cream cones. The experience will also offer a signature Santa’s Brunch every Saturday and Sunday throughout December.

The Wild Center, nestled within the breathtaking landscape of New York's Adirondack Park, offers an unforgettable journey into the heart of nature. As visitors approach the Center, they are greeted by the Adirondack Mountains towering in the distance, setting the stage for an immersive adventure. Upon entering the 34,000-square-foot exhibit hall, guests are enveloped in a world of wonder and discovery. Interactive exhibits like Planet Adirondack and Climate Solutions invite exploration, allowing visitors to delve into the rich biodiversity of the Adirondack region. The indoor experience also includes an opportunity to soar on Birdly--a one-of-a-kind VR experience. Also, get up close with an animal ambassador during one of many live animal encounters throughout the day. In addition to its indoor exhibits and programs, the Wild Center also boasts 115-acres of extensive outdoor amenities. One of the highlights in the award-winning Wild Walk. Visitors walk up a trail of bridges to the treetops of the Adirondack forest, 40 feet off the ground. Along the way, interactive exhibits provide insights into the flora and fauna that call the Adirondacks home, from songbirds to black bears. The rest of the campus features more ways to explore. Check out Patrick Dougherty&rsquo;s Stickwork sculpture, an all natural installation of woven sticks that will spark your imagination and nostalgia.
