Ok, so it is a little dated. And it is definitely a silly theme. And no it doesn't have state of the art anything. But it is FUN for small children. My 3 year old thought it was the best thing ever. She loved all the rides because she could do them all by herself (sans the "rudi-coaster). It reminds... More

I first visited Santa's Land as a child. Most recently, I took my nephew. At first, he had no interest in going inside the park. I was able to get him to agree to go inside the store area. He had fun looking around and picking out a wrapped "present" from the tree. (Side note- This part was disappointing. He... More

Oh how this place brings back wonderful memories of my childhood. I took my nephew & he had a great time; he loved it. Which made me feel good because it made me happy to share some of my childhood all over again with my nephew. This is a must do while in Cherokee folks!!!!!

I used to go to Santa's land when I was a kid back in the 70's...and it has hardly changed a bit since then so it is kinda like stepping back in time for me...to relive my childhood memories. I take my kids once most years, and they always enjoy it. It is more of a young kids' attraction the... More

We took our Grandson. We do not go on rides, but went on the Rudy Coaster with him. Walked around to look at some animals, and were done in an hour. We paid way to much for the tie we spent there.

This is by far my children's favorite place to go each year. It is one of the nicest and cleanest play parks for little children. Don't expect something out of Disney world, but that is why we love it. It is perfect for kids under 9 years old, but older kids will like it too and we saw plenty there... More

After driving for 2 hours & sitting in traffic to come here,we arrived at 4:50 pm. I had called & they told me they closed at 6pm. NEVER said they stopped selling tickets at 5pm. We arrive where we approach a woman who was so rude. She told us they stopped selling tickets at 5pm. It was 4:50 pm. After... More

Santa would be nonplussed by this place. It takes a special kind of chutzpah for the admission ticket dispensers to look you in the eye and charge you $20 a head for anyone older than the third trimester. Once you recover from that sticker shock, you enter upon a landscape that is perhaps 2-3 acres of mixed media, zoo, and... More

Wonderful little amusement park.. My children loved it.. especially getting to meet Santa... and the roudolph coster.. Only problem was when we went to ride the paddle boats a monkey escaped and jumped on a little girl and bit her finger!! Blood everywhere.. needless to say that was the only ride my kids DID NOT go on...
