    The park gets busy! I just happened to show up right as they were opening

      Good to know. I hoped that they get good business now during the upcoing holiday season, as I really liked what they made with the park. On the other hand, having such a sweet amusement park all for yourself during a slightly gloomy autumn day has its own charm. And You getting a lolipop from Santa for being a good boy made me really smile.:)

    My Aunt and Uncle brought me and my brother here when we were little kids. I don't remember it as much but it was in the early 70's . I do remember my Uncle driving back home in a snow storm back to Connecticut and sleeping in the back seat . Me and my brother still have the Wooden Soldiers that Aunt ans Uncle brought us and I put them on the Mantle Every Year At Christmas Time. I will be showing my Aunt this video and wish my Uncle was still alive to see it to. Thanks for sharing this.

    I went there many times with my grandparents back in the early 1970s. I remember that first slide you went down well only it used to just dump you in the dirt at the end and not in a big mat. Both of my grandparents are no longer with us so this video brought back some nice memories of them and the fun things we did together.

    Many years ago, my younger sister used to work at Dunkin Donuts, and used to work the drive thru window. She would serve Santa every morning, and really enjoyed his lovely demeanor.
    It's great to see the old place open again!

    Cool to see that place back open after it's bad down fall. Miss seeing the live deers there, but the polor bear roasting his chestnuts makes up for it. Love the train, think the one you showed in barn was the one running when I was there as a kid. Got a postcard of that train.

    Jacob I use to love to go to a Santa Village that was in Illinois. So this brought back a lot of memories. Really enjoy your stuff. I even watch when maybe the location isn't something I'm not into because you will always say something really funny. Keep up the good work.

    Years ago we visited here and they would postmark your letters to Santa with an official postmark from Santa Land, Putney, Vermont. One of the igloo houses was a former restaurant there.
    I didn't see the gift shop that was once there, glad it reopened!

    You should definitely go to Frankenmuth in Michigan this year! It's a Christmas/German tourist area. It has the world's largest Christmas store, restaurants, speciality shops, escape rooms, mirror maze, and area that reminds me directly of Gatlinburg, three museums including a history and beer museum. I was able to film in all attractions that we did so you'll be able to get plenty of footage.

  • @JamesScott-lc8md

  • @deniseboldea1624
    @deniseboldea1624 5 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @smashley_xo

    Not sure if you've already been, but if you really want a Christmas experience you need to head to Frankenmuth Michigan and go to Bronners! Actually Frankenmuth in general provides ALOT of awesome experiences!

    @TerryFedora 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I was wondering why there was no one there, like no employees or anything so...good to hear that they do get busy. It is a cute little place. I do like that Santa's house, as old fashioned as it is, he still has a Secret Life of Pets blanket.

    Kind of sad, There should be children there. Parents to day are spoiled and only want the big rides. But there kids at a young age 3 to 8 would have great memories of this place if they had the chance to go. As adults it seems we want to made happy more then the children. I hope you visit helps promote Santa Land

I'd grab my kids or grandkids and run . lol !! You just never know about people these days . ( I know Jacob is harmless though ) . Other wise I would be concerned .

    This looks like such a cute little park!! These old timey places are far and few between but they are my favorite.
    Jacob - you should check out Dutch Wonderland in Lancaster, Pa - I think you'd really enjoy it! It was setup more like places like this but now it's a bit different but still has that unique vibe! You should also visit the Pioneer Tunnel in Ashland, Pa! It has a coal mine dark ride and a nice train ride too!

    Jee Whiz carpetbagger welcome back to the Green Mountain State! Was hoping eventually you'd hit up Vermonts ONLY Theme Park. Yes this is it folks! Keep in mind this park is still in a transition period of restoration and such. The guy who bought it is a fairly wealthy gentlemen I believe from Connecticut who remembers coming here as a kid way back in the day and when presented with the opportunity to buy it he couldn't resist and is looking do everything right and be genuinely passionate about the project! This park is located in Putney right along side US RT5 if you are ever wondering where to go to find it!

    I aspire to be more like this man, if I can find the courage.
    For some reason that I can't fathom, the men in this country admire, and try to emulate men like Stallone, Schwarzenegger, and Chuck Norris.
    A mystery.
    These men all have the same approach to managing the problems life confronts them with.
    They either punch, shoot, or blow the smithereens out of their obstacles.
    I admit to having watched pretty much all of the movies these action heroes have made, and found one glaring similarity between them.
    It is alarming.
    You NEVER hear them use the word love, or see them express tenderness.
    Ever.
    We idolize weakness and fear.
    I want to be the middle aged man in the silly hat riding down the glacier slide.
    He seems a lot happier, and I'd much rather be happy than a badass any day of the week!
    You GO, Carpetbagger, you are a hero!
    Come by for a visit. I am a lunatic, and enjoy company!

    Is this place still open in 2021, despite COVID? These theme parks are of a dying generation. I’m so happy to see that this place reopened! I’ve driven past many times in my trips to the Brattleboro area but I’ve never been inside! Hope to visit if it’s still open!!
