Santa at Stonewood Castle

This season, Stonewood Castle comes alive with twinkling lights, swirling snowflakes, and just a pinch of Christmas magic. Families are invited to wander across our glowing drawbridge, tiptoe up the enchanted spiral turret staircase, and share a cozy, laughter-filled visit with Santa in our festive parlor. 

Your journey begins in the castle dining room, where little ones can pen heartfelt letters to Santa, nibble on warm cookies, and whisper their wishes into the holiday air. And because Santa is wonderfully prepared, each family completes a short pre-visit questionnaire—so he’ll know exactly who loves dinosaurs, who just lost a tooth, and who’s been practicing their best jingles.
