Woolaroc's Wonderland of Lights

More than 750,000 lights transform the grounds and buildings into a winter wonderland, offering unique views across Clyde Lake. Guests can explore the animal barn, the 50,000-square-foot museum, and catch a wagon ride through the main grounds. Santa greets visitors at the museum every evening, while cookies and hot cocoa are available inside the historic lodge.

Tips & Advice

  • Arrive with time to spare, because the front gate closes promptly half an hour before the lights go off each evening.
  • Be ready to pay at the front gate, since admission to Wonderland of Lights is not sold in advance online or anywhere else.
  • Watch for the buildings across Clyde Lake on the way in, because the main drive is reversed again this year to show them outlined in lights.
  • Stop by the historic lodge for cookies and hot cocoa, then catch a wagon ride through the main grounds before visiting Santa at the museum.
  • Plan your visit for a Friday, Saturday or Sunday evening, since those are the only nights the lights are on through December 20.

Special Events & Promotions

  • The main drive is reversed again this year, so you see the buildings across Clyde Lake outlined in lights, a view you only get this time of year.
  • Admission is free for Woolaroc members and children 3 and under.
