What if it Rains?

We will perform in a drizzle, a light to medium rain and wet snow conditions, so please dress accordingly. In cases of severe rain, we will perform the show in our Timber Barn, and depending on conditions, offer a sleigh ride after the performance. Weather conditions are changeable, so we don’t make a decision until the evening of the event. 

What if it is too cold? 

We will perform in temperatures up to 20 below. 

Is the Winter Sleigh Ride Show accessible?

Yes, we provide a wagon/sleigh to those with mobility concerns to travel to the first scene prior to boarding. Please call ahead to discuss. 

Are Pets Allowed?

With the exception of accredited service animals, no pets are allowed, due to the involvement of horses. 

Are tickets refundable?

No, we are sorry, they are not.
