Santa's Wonderland

Awesome!!! Excellent in all areas!! So much fun. There is such much to see, do, eat and drink. I felt emerged in Christmas time. The Christmas lights and displays are gorgeous and plentiful along with constant Christmas songs. This place is huge. The food is expensive so I recommend to eat prior to arrival. Plan to arrive 1 1/2 hour before opening. Register early for the first parking slots. Parking fills up fast. We went on a low attendance night before the school Christmas break so the crowd was small and we saved money too. Go to the Hayride first. The line get very long quickly or buy an express pass. The snow tubing is close to the Hayride. Both are very fun for all ages. There are a lot of free and paying photo opportunities. I loved visiting the shops and walking trails. Santa's Village is grand. The fire pit was cozy. The snow and ice skating area is fun and beautiful. There is such more that can be said but this is the short version . This place is a great place for all ages including dates. Be prepared for enjoyment overload!!!

Beautiful place to take kids. My kids enjoyed a lot. We arrived at 2:30 but the line was so long just a 3 minute walk took 1.45 hours wait.. since all the express passes were booked we had no choice.. try to get express passes if you don’t want to wait.. this place is very crowded but everything was great. A lot of free stuff for kids are available to do which is great. We ate pepperoni Pizza and it had just 2-3 pieces of pepperoni and super thick pizza, such a waste of money and time..i should have ordered something else at the entrance where they have many varieties. I will visit this place again next year and every year for sure. We were able to leave at 7 pm.. which is good. It’s very cold in the area so get jackets and boots. We were literally freezing. Thank you

What a magical winter wonderland!!! We had an amazing experience at Santa's Wonderland! There were a few things I wish we would have done different such as: pay extra for Rudolph VIP parking which is worth the $10.00 more than the $19.99 Blitzen parking. The Rudolph parking is right at the gate and is well worth the $29.95! Trust me!! I also wish we would have splurged and paid for the extra "skip pass" which lets you skip the lines to ride the hayride around the park. We had to wait well over an hour in line to get a chance to ride the hayride which is "complimentary" with your ticket. However, those that purchase the add on hay ride ticket get to skip the long lines and ride whenever they want! Definitely worth the money. The food is rather pricey but good and the gift shops are pricey but have great gifts especially for friends and family at Christmas time! Overall, it was a beautiful and magical night which exceeded our expectations. Can't wait to go back!

Great Magical Experience! It was my family's first trip to Santa's Wonderland, and everything was wonderful! The crowds we not a big issue since we came early in in the season I believe. Lines were very reasonable, except the Hay ride, which we purchase a express pass for, and I highly recommend you do cause the line for that can be extremely long. The kids loved the snow play areas and of course the snow tubes. Overall the experience was wonderful and we can't wait to come back next year. If you can come early on in the season or during the week, I am sure your experience will be great as well. We parked at Oak Post Mall and took the shuttle from there, which made it very easy to get in and out of the park. I suggest getting there right at opening as well so you can enjoy everything because this place is pretty big.

Very nice very organized and well managed!
Starting with parking lots. There are three options VIP right by the entrance. Prancer for oversized vehicles. And Blitzen for all types of vehicles and little bit walking distance from the entrance.
All parking can be purchased ahead of time online and it’s separate from the tickets.
Free parking about 10 miles away by the mall and there is a free shuttle.
Design was perfect and many activities is there
Nice huge dining area but the food was terrible. Hope we can see some improvement on next year.
Place was very clean. Beautiful lights and nice live music.
Definitely a must see

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Santa's Wonderland Amusement Park, and I must say, it was an absolutely amazing experience! From the moment I stepped foot into the park, I was transported into a magical winter wonderland that truly captured the spirit of the holiday season.

The park was beautifully decorated with twinkling lights, festive ornaments, and larger-than-life Christmas displays. Everywhere I looked, there were enchanting sights and sounds that filled me with joy.

The staff at Santa's Wonderland were exceptional. They were friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond to ensure that every guest had a fantastic time. From assisting with ride safety to providing information about the park's attractions, they were always ready to lend a helping hand. Their dedication and enthusiasm added to the overall positive experience.

Overall, I cannot recommend Santa's Wonderland enough. It is a truly magical place that captures the essence of the holiday season. The park offers a wide range of attractions, friendly staff, and a festive atmosphere that will leave you with cherished memories. Whether you're young or young at heart, a visit to Santa's Wonderland is an experience that should not be missed.

Nice light park with activities for kids. Most activities are geared toward kids who can ride independently. Prices inside are not too high. Went at the opening time at 3 pm. Lights were on but best viewed after 5:30pm. Lots of eating options. Lots of parking but long lines to get in. I would definitely recommend it. Wear comfortable walking shoes! Bring stroller for small kids. Hay rides don't start until 6pm.

Really great Christmas experience for kids and adults. Missed the Aggie lights on the hayride, though. So impressed how much the village area has grown. Lots of fun. Food was very reasonably priced and lots of gift shopping to do. The line to get in takes a while, but not unexpected.

It was a great experience. Magnificent light displays, entertainment, great food, desserts, alcoholic beverages, and much more. This is definitely a must for the family every year. Be advised! Get their early when they open. Get tickets in advance and buy early in the year to get open tickets. Have a great time.

A fantastic experience for all ages! Not a whole lot changes year-over-year for the last few years, but I've still found myself there many years in a row. Billions of lights scattered across dozens of acres of Christmas wonderland, and it's an amazing place to be for the whole family. Some things I recommend while there are obviously the hay ride, the snow-tubing, and the mechanical bull! Some food that's really good here is the gumbo, the funnel cakes, and the hot chocolate!

Amazing better than Disney World! Santa was great. The line wasn’t too long when we got there when they opened. We had waited till the last minute so we went on the 23rd. The kids had a blast. The snow was fun to play in however, it did get compacted like ice from the children all running up and down. Just had to be careful that no one slipped. The children enjoyed the rides and the lights. Please get a hayride fast pass the line without it is our long and not worth standing there especially with kids forever. The live band was amazing and my kids had fun dancing. Warning they send everyone at the end of the night through the gift shop. If you and your husband and children get separated, your husband is going to buy your children a stuffed animal. Lol great fun for the whole family. We enjoyed our dinner in the big red barn while we watched elf. The seasonal beer that they carry on draft was amazing also highly recommended. You’ve got to go. We will be back next year earlier but back.

Had a beautiful first time family experience. It was very cold so I would fight suggestion bundling up and taking a small blanket. Btw you will be searched via purse and body so it may take some time to enter park. You will walk a lot!!!! The hayride is an amazing experience. The food was delicious, a bit pricey but that’s to be expected! I do recommend buying tickets in advance. Doesn’t really change anything but I do recommend. Staff was phenomenal from the time we got onto the park
Directing with parking if we got Law who was able to find someone Needed to be, and everyone was friendly.

Second time here. With a 2.5 year old and a 3 month old. We visited Saturday after black Friday and it was calm until about 7, opened at 3. We left at 730pm and there was a mile and a half long wait for parking. I recommend getting there early and purchasing all tickets with the first round that goes on sale; you save quite a bit. Do the carriage ride! It's private and so worth it. We'll be back next year! Food is great too!

Santa Wonderland truly exceeded our expectations! From the enchanting music band to the dazzling lights and elaborate Christmas decorations, every moment was filled with joy and festive cheer. The attention to detail in the lighting setup was impressive, creating a magical atmosphere that captivated both young and old. The variety of activities provided a delightful experience for everyone, making it a perfect destination for families and friends alike. Our visit was nothing short of spectacular, and we left with hearts full of holiday spirit. Santa Wonderland deserves a resounding 5 stars for delivering an unforgettable Christmas celebration!

I was pretty irritated…

…only at the rain. ;-)

This was the second time my family has been to Santa’s Wonderland. The first time was prior to COVID. We were so excited to visit again that I took a half day off of work. We got there around 2:30pm and we parked on the side of 290 waiting for the parking lot to open at 3:00pm. Then we waited in line for them to let us in at 4:00pm. We got lucky and they actually let us in early.

If you don’t have the pass, be sure to get your name on the list for the hay ride as soon as possible (around 5:30pm). It was great! We only waited in line for about 20 minutes. Later that evening we went back passed the hay ride line and it was taking people hours to get through. Was it worth it? Definitely.

We did all the things and had dinner. So many people and so much yummy food.

The only bad part was when the rain drizzled on us for about an hour, but after that it was great.

PS: Buy tickets when they go on sale in July.

Our family went to Santa’s Wonderland for the first time this year. It is a wonderful fun filled place to enjoy with your family whether young or older kids. We took so many pictures, the lights were so beautiful and the hayride was a family favorite. We thought the food was really good and the prices were very reasonable, not outrageous at all. I highly recommend this for anyone considering going. Also recommend you purchase the close parking like we did…don’t cheap out on the parking. This definitely set the ton for the Christmas Holiday for our family this is a must go to place.

This is a great place for kids only place that has excellent snow activities. Can you believe they make their own snow I would recommend buying parking in advance and the most important the tickets in advance. They are literally 50% half also if possible get the hayride express pass if you guys are planning to go during, the weekend or holiday.
Live music is awesome. I really enjoyed sat by the fire pit and enjoyed some live music. What I really did not enjoy is the food pizzas were cold and burgers were overpriced, so if possible, eat some thing before you are here also be prepared to walk as it may , take you on different areas multiple ways.

Very busy. We reserved our ice skating time slot which was helpful. We ended up paying for the fast pass for the hay ride which reduced the wait time to about 15-20 minutes. That was a smart move because the line was horrendous. The hay ride was really cool, they did a great job. We waited about 50 minutes for the snow tubing for a 15-second ride. Not really worth it. We didn't get to do most things because we spent so much time in line. It was cold once the sun went down so bundle up!

What a Beautiful place. I loved my visit. The only thing I would suggest is some sort of transportation to and from the parking lot. The walk is quite far for little ones and the elderly. I would recommend purchasing your tickets online. We took the horse-drawn carriage, and it was so wonderful. We did not purchase the carriage ride online but would have saved money if we had.

Beautiful place, the whole family will love it. Go with time because the parking line is big as the entrance and for some attractions as the ride of the light. First time and I will start coming every year. Live music. The souvenir store are beautiful. The play are for the kids are great too. Great, you have to go to enjoy with the family. You will make beautiful memories.
