Santa's Village

We had an amazing time. It snowed the second day were there flurries and stuff nothing major. The rides were fun, the food was great, and the staff made it very enjoyable. They have a elf scavenger for the kids. This place also has a waterpark in the summer. It also had a very old cathedral that you could enter in and view.

I will go back everyday if I could, it was amazing the workers were awesome considerate to us. They would ask if no lines were formed if we wanted to stay on the ride. Always with a smile did not come across anyone in a bad mood and that was dismissive. This was my first time going since I was a young child. My 10 y/o loved every bit of it. The wait for rides and visit with Santa was not as bad as most places. The bathroom, buildings, seating was very clean no complaints. All great about this fun park. I wasn’t able to do the water park but looked amazing. The only suggestion I would have is adding in 1 or two misting tents of course I went on a very hot day. The people that were there to enjoy the park were also friendly. I will recommend Santa’s village over storyland any day!

This is a great little spot that you can experience a little Christmas magic anytime of the year. We have been here in July and we have been here in December and it is fun, exciting and magical each time. The winter time is obviously a little more magical given the theme of establishment However, more of the rides are closed down at that time. The staff are super friendly. It doesn’t matter if it’s a ride attendant, a groundskeeper or a person working in one of the food establishments. They are always incredibly friendly. This place is definitely worth a trip, but make sure you get your online tickets before you arrive because they only allow a certain number of people per day. They do not sell tickets at the gate you must have purchased them beforehand. I actually really like this because it significantly reduces the amount of people in the park each day and your line lines are way short shorter. This place is worth a visit, go check it out

Cute amusement park and waterpark even if you are a Scrooge like we are. This park is very clean and very well maintained. All of the employees were nice and helpful. Can’t believe we almost didn’t go . This is a nice little gem in the white mountains.

The hype is real. This is the best family park in the entire country. It's honestly such a fun and relaxed environment. It's nice to go to a theme park where the employees do not act like they are 1 bad interaction away from walking out. I really enjoyed the elf scavenger hut. I did it without a map just to extend my time and to explore more. I spent about 5 hours at the park and managed to do everything. My only complaint is that I wish there was just 1 solid thrilling flat ride. Like an inverting frisbee ride or something like that. Everything here is geared towards very small children. I feel like there are plenty of kids who enjoy solid thrills too. They don't need some big crazy coaster, just 1 cool and interesting flat ride.

Excellent family amusement park for kids 12 and under. Very clean, friendly staff and reasonable prices. Perfect day to put you in the Christmas spirit. We visited November 7. Would come back again during the summer to check out the water rides. Highly recommend

So much fun. We love this place. One of the best parts about it is the limited ticket sales. The lines are short, the atmosphere is super friendly. We always have a blast. Love the 2 new Rollercoasters.

Great place for the whole family. Toddler Waterpark is absolutely phenomenal. Beautiful nursing mom stations. Family changing areas. Cleans restrooms. Delicious beverages. Awesome gift shop selections. Gorgeous ornament customization. We're already planning our next trip back!

We love everything about this park! The park is immaculate and very well taken care of. You can tell the staff take pride in keeping the place shining and enjoyable. You never see any trash on the ground and nothing looks worn or old. All of the "characters" and Santa are just the best. They greet with genuine smiles and always have fun and nice things to say. The workshop characters are a riot and my kids always get a good chuckle from Ed and Ted! Make sure to see Santa early or you will wait in a good long line. They let you take your own pictures - and multiples. You do not have to buy their pictures but they are often better than yours! Almost all of their rides are good for any kid age 3+ and are just good family fun. The only boring ride we found was the bumper cars because the attendant runs it like the military and didn't really let anyone have fun - any time someone spun around he stopped everyone and fixed that person. The waterpark - I honestly cannot say enough about it! I don't usually like public pools or water play areas because they are usually run down, old and dirty but not this place. It looks like brand new and the water is sparkling clean. There is an area with a "climber" type thing with slides that come off of it and then a shallow splash and play area that turns into a 2ft deep pool that the smaller slides go into. My kids would play here all day! The pizza restaurant has very good pizza and is worth the wait - skip the gross chicken fingers and burgers and go straight for the pizza!

This was my first time visiting the park and unfortunately, I had an issue with another patron that has tainted my experience. After getting off our first attraction we went to buy a picture of our family. The person in front of us in line, waited for us to buy our picture and told us he "photo bombed" our family picture and bought a copy. He (Richard) gave us a copy of his business card and asked if we wanted to follow him on you tube and see more of his work. I cannot tell you how disturbing it is to have a 60 something year old man ruining photos at an amusement park for small children. The workers on the ride joked and said "I guess we shouldn't have told him where the cameras were" Why are the workers telling this creep where to photo bomb pictures? I did email the park and they said they were made aware of the incident that day and spoke with him about it. Evidently, he is a season pass holder, so be on the lookout for a creepy, heavy-set, grey-haired man named Richard when you go here. Otherwise, the park was beautiful in the trees, very clean and the new water park was amazing. Two large pools where you could spend all day. The lines were manageable and not over the top. The big difference from story land was the Elf University Stamp collector page. My kids loved that! Not sure if I would go back.

Extremely clean and well maintained amusement park. On a sunny Sunday, some ride lines were too long, but the effort put in and all around experience is best in class. Better than experiences at much larger and more expensive parks.

This is the way all amusement parks should be! Family-centered, friendly, laid-back, and too notch service experience. Meticulously clean and beautifully landscaped. Food pricing actually reasonable! Plenty of free parking. Highly recommend!

They are doing a really great job here. My 9-year old grandniece LOVED it. The place is clean, there is an excellent variety of attractions, the staff is superb (really seem to care about the kids having a good time), the pizza at the Pizza Emporium was quite good, and the price was reasonable. We will be going back!

This place....!!! I cant possibly rave about this place enough for families with elementary aged children! We had a blast and my family was treated with such dignity and respect. My son has autism and we forgot to ask about accommodations, but we didn't need any bc of the culture and kindness of this place! There were no wait times for any rides this past Monday, July 31. I hope the administration and every employee knows how amazing they are! You all truly made an impact on my little families life and we will always cherish our memories at Santa's Village. Thank you for your hospitality. I want to be more like you.

Not really sure what to expect from a Christmas themed amusement park in August but we loved it!! Plenty of rides and great food. Ended our day at the on-site water park and had happy kids and adults!

Anything you'd expect in a theme park, food, rides (obviously) and more. It has a few roller coasters but it's not like 6 flags or cedar point.

Santa's village is a family fun destination. We brought my 3 year old over the long Labor Day weekend. We all really enjoyed ourselves. The rides and water park were so much fun! There is so much to do. We ate at the pizza restaurant and got hot, fresh, delicious pizza. Much better than I was anticipating for a theme park. We will definitely be back to create more memories in the years to come.

Had lots of fun with the grandkids! Nice clean park with friendly workers. Food was very good and affordable.

It is so clean everyone works here is so polite and can't do enough for you.The food was great and less expensive than I thought it would be.I had a wonderful day with my grandkids and my sister in law.i didn't want the day to end.There were no lines to get on rides at all.I can't wait to go vack

We are a "theme park family" and there is something about Santa's Village that makes us want to keep returning whenever we can. We were a group of three generations and all of us had a great time. There were minimal crowds and minimal waits for rides as the weather wasn't great and we visited midweek at the end of summer vacation. The employees are very friendly and appear to enjoy their jobs. The Elfabet game is genius. Rides appear to be well maintained and freshly painted. The grounds are well kept and it's located amongst beautiful pine trees in the NH mountains. It does close a bit early so just keep that in mind as time goes by fast when you are having fun.

This place did it right. Everything you don't like about amusement parks is an area they excel. Their staff is amazing and love kids, the park is clean, the food is reasonably priced, they limit their tickets daily so it isn't over packed. Everything Christmas themed is perfect. Probably the best thing of all is seeing that all other parents are fighting the same battle you are! This place is special!

Super clean and cute! The kids had a blast collecting alphabet stamps and going on all the rides. I was so impressed by how clean and well maintained the park is. You can tell that the family that owns it takes a lot of pride in it. I used to go there as a kid and was so excited to see that they had expanded and added the new water park. That was a huge bonus that the kids really loved. If you are trying to decide between Santa's Village and Storyland choose Santa's Village.

We had a great day at Santa's Village! My granddaughter wore a princess gown with a sparkly pink crown and got a lot of positive attention!. It didn't hold her back from enjoying the rides, and there were plenty to choose from. Next summer we will.plan ahead to bring the kids bathing suits. The water park looked like a lot of fun

This place was very cool! I really appreciated they let toddlers ride with 16+ on most rides. It's not like this in other parks. I was so surprised our little guy rode some very brave rides and he did great! The whole family had a lot of fun. Don't forget to get your elf ticket you get to stamp around the park. Nobody told us this and we missed out. We ordered lunch for the 5 of us and it was $52! I couldn't believe it was so cheap. The only down side was the water wasn't headed. It really was like the North Pole water! Burrrrr. Needless to say we didn't last long in the water section. We went back and did some dry rides. I was surprised they closed at 5. I thought so early but we all were tired and ready for dinner by then.

The people that work here are amazing. Pleasant, happy and polite. So nice to see. The grounds are beautifully kept and the rides were great. We had our 4 year old grandson and he loved it. Well done and thanks for a great experience.

After hearing about Santa's Village earlier this year, I knew it would be the perfect place to kick off the Christmas season with my 4 and 2 year old. We booked a trip here for early November and stayed at the Mountain View Grand. When we arrived at the park, we had to park in a dirt lot across the street, I thought for sure the park would be packed inside. But once we got in (we pre purchased tickets online ahead of time), the park was roomy and we never felt like it was overcrowded or that lines were excessive. We loved every aspect of the park. The rides were amazing and perfect for my toddlers. Everything was super clean and all the staff was friendly. We're looking forward to going back again soon!

Santa's Village is such a fun place for children and adults. It is good in the summer and winter. In the winter they have fun lights and in the summer the huge fun water park is open. Santa's village is fun for everybody from babies to teens to adults.

We are visiting from California and are used to going to Disneyland and Knotts Berry Farm, so we know theme parks. This place is well kept, fun and beautiful. Being from Southern California it's a little too cold for our taste lol but that's out of the parks control. Everyone seems very friendly and happy. We will definitely come here again next time we visit. We would never guess that this park is 70 years old with how well kept it is.

Our Jolly June day today 6/11/23 was a most special day ever!!!!! The personal were the kindest most patient. people ever. The food was fantastic, the rides were great. The attendant's at the water park were fantastic, I could have never asked for a better day. Park is always clean, bathrooms , food services is always Clean. Employees are always willing to help in any and every way possible. This is why I buy seasons tickets every year. I can not say enough Great things about Santas Village!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will be purchasing again next season. Thank you Santas Village for making my great grand babies so very happy along with their Momma and Grammy- Three Generations.

I just feel like every time I go I need to post a review. It's literally one of my favorite places in the whole entire world. It's top five of amusement parks ever and I've been to quite a few. Something about being in the mountains and just enjoying the ambience is amazing. First we went in June. We got there a little bit late. I couldn't get my internet to work. They were able to find my tickets very quickly. We got right in and we rode multiple rides with no lines which is amazing. However, the best part about going in June is the free food. Basically you do pay for it in the ticket price but it is worth every single penny because you can just get whatever you want. You want five chicken fingers? Go ahead and you want icees and mini donuts that are absolutely delicious! Yes, all of those are yours for free, well included in the admission but basically pays for itself in one meal. Now the only thing I didn't really like about it is that I feel like when I was asking people for like multiple like two bags of donuts. The lady didn't act like she wanted to give it to me. I don't know if she just wasn't very happy about it or what was going on. But that was the only negative and I didn't let that ruin my day. Everyone that you meet while you go on a ride is super nice. The rides are all up to date yeah or they're a little little but honestly it's perfect. It's literally my favorite place ever. You get a ring included in the ticket price. Everything about it is magical. Please take me back The park. Obviously the water is pretty cold. You're in the mountains and makes perfect sense. My boy didn't seem to mind it. My other one didn't love it but that's okay. I also really love that the souvenirs are really affordable

I do recommend anyone w small children to visit Santa's village. It is magical to have Christmas year round. The music throughout the park helps set the mood. We've been coming yearly since my kids were old enough to get on rides. Now 10-12 it feels like they are a bit old for most rides. This year the Rudolph coaster is coming down which is kind of sad being a thrill ride the kids enjoy. I guess it's dated and needs to come down. I think we are done w Santa's village unless the water park continues to expand or more thrill rides are added for the older kids. It's a great feature to cool off on a hot summer visit. They've added cabanas in the wading pool area that block from the water slide areas which is concerning if you want to keep an eye on your children from that area. The old fashioned cars are a family favorite. Wish it were a longer ride. Usually it doesn't feel so packed but this last visit 8/2023 it seemed every ride had long lines. Never experienced that before. Get there early to enjoy the rides and bring a poncho just in case. We got stuck in some rainfall and they actually had them in the park for $1. There are different food options in the park so ask if you have special request. There's a place that has pizza, another offers burgers, fries, chicken nuggets, pb&j, grilled cheese etc.

My family used to take us as kids when we were little and now I get to bring my own children. So much fun and small enough that it doesn't feel overwhelming but still plenty to do. My son is under 36" so he was somewhat limited but we still spent at least 4 hours there.

We had a great time in Santa's Village. We spent around 5 hrs over there and my 4 yr old had an amazing time, even my 10 month old was very active. Neat and clean place. We will be visiting over soon.

We went here this past week, and we had a great time. Every staff interacted with it was personable and truly seem to enjoy their job.

This place is extremely clean & I cannot believe I haven't heard more because I was EXTREMELY IMPRESSED with the rides, AND the water park. Not only was the park immaculate and well kept but they had a lot of stuff to do! Unfortunately we got here a little too late in the day to really enjoy the entire park, but we did do the water park for a few hours and then we rode several rides such as the rollercoaster, the flume, and the bumper cars. All the rides were GREAT & the lines weren't bad at all! We had our picture taken with Santa as well! The staff were all friendly and accommodating!! The gift shops had a TON of amazing stuff at really great price points! I'm sad we didn't get to explore the whole park. But my son is 4 and I felt like it was a PERFECT age however we will DEFINITELY be back! We wanted to do the tube ride & a few others for sure! 5 STARS!!!

A lot of fun. Looking for the elves throughout the park is neat! We missed seeing santa....he was "taking a nap". The reindeer were nice to see. Wish we could have fed them, but they weren't allowing it at the time.

[987] 7/2019 What a cool place in the middle of NH. We were in the area so family took us here. I have to say I was bit skeptical since Santa's Village in July sounded strange but I'm glad we went. My son had a blast!! Free parking It's basically a kid driven park with a Christmas theme. I love Christmas music so it was nice hearing it in the park. My son did the rides. We ate the food. The freshly made donuts were warm and tasty. My son made wax candles which was unique, fun and reasonably priced. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely be back.

This is now my favorite Christmas place ever!!! We flew to the East Coast from the West Coast and did a road trip of 13 states. This was mine and my kids all time favorite spot. I wish I knew of this place long ago. It was supposed to be about a 5-6hr drive from our previous stop and ended up being 9 and was worth it imo. My husband even loved it and he wasn't too fond of making the drive just for a Christmas place before we made it there. We also went to Story land and it was fine but nowhere near as good as Santas. I loved all the details of everything. All of our names were on the nice list and mine is never on anything. We didn't get to go to the waterpark because for July it wasn't hot enough for us. I didn't know the weather there, but figured it would be similar to the other states. We really hope to make a trip back and spend more than a day there (and hopefully when it's warm enough for the water area). The prices were everything were great as well...Especially compared to storyland. I've been telling everyone I know about this place because we enjoyed it so much. All the workers were so friendly too. Hope to make it back in the near future.

We love Santa's village! Been going here since i was six and love to bring my kids here everyyear now! They are 8 and 12

Awsome and so fun to take a family to! So many fun rides and I loved the people that dress up! Have a fun time!!

Along with my daughter, I took my grandson's here. My grandson's are 6 and 4.5 years of age. I had never been here but had heard good things about it. At the end of the day the 6 year old told it was "the best day ever". I had to agree. The park is super clean, well staffed with kind, smiling people. The lines were short - never waited more than 10 minutes in a line for a ride. We stayed for 5 hrs. There were 2 happy sleeping boys and 2 happy adults driving home that afternoon. Thanks again Santa's Village. It was a long drive but definitely worth it. Your staff are wonderful!

Great time they're my sister loved it and they have very nice staff but if you go pick a nice day they're is a lot of water

This was my first time at Santa's village.....I love it...I think it's good for kids from ages 3-8........The staff happy and friendly......Adults too of course but definitely for kids...... It's about $33.00 entrance and u can get on all the rides....kids can go to the university and and get their name on a tag with a Christmas tree.... the have to go throughout the village find elf's and hole punch all the letters of the alphabet and at the end they get a diploma and a pen...... I think that's was a great activity to keep the kids entertained and try everything on the village...... The food wasn't bad pretty decent for fast food. The had cheeseburgers, hotdogs, fries, chicken nuggets and a variety of drinks......The staff worked quickly to get every customer in and out when it was raining......they sell mini donuts sooo good and fresh cotton candy yummy... I got to see the real reindeers they were so cute........They open at 9:30am and close at 6pm......

Santa's Village does a phenomenal job with providing a safe, clean environment. They are routinely cleaning the rides with little interruption to loading time. They have made changes such as with the nail rings to ensure that the guests can still enjoy each area.

overall the place is super cute with easy and plenty of parking. for those coming from the south (we're in central mass)... dress like you're going to alaska ;) my only gripe was that the "you tubing" slide was operated very poorly. the line was long and took 20-30 minutes, then when you got your tube and got to the top of the slide, you had to wait for another 15 or so minutes because once the person slides down the operator down below has to wait 'till they fully exit the bottom area not just step out of the actual slide. this was painful and borderline idiotic. i appreciate safety but these tubes don't go 100 miles an hour, and frankly the operator should be motivating or speeding up the people to get up and out of the way for the next person. there were also plenty of families who think that the world revolves around their social media updates, so more delays were caused by photo ops at the bottom of the slide while the rest wait. although my favorite part was when the top operator asked the bottom operator to retrieve a hat that someone lost on a previous ride. a hat which was located within 10 feet of him (top operator). real class act to have a teenager come up 90% up from the bottom to make it easy on you.

There's a reason Santa's Village has 5 stars as I write my review. We were so pleased with our visit. Staff directing parking on arrival so organized. People cleaning everywhere. Bathrooms were immaculate. The lines were short on all the rides. The rides were enjoyable and well thought out. The roller coaster went around twice which was a great surprise. We saved the water park part for the end of the day luckily as the kids did not want to leave. And the fudge is amazing. Highly highly recommend!

This place is a true gem. Very affordable and way cleaner than you would expect for the price. Also, the staff running the rides are really great at there jobs. Will definitely come back next year.

Santa's Village is a lovely amusement park in northern NH that is perfect for youngsters. We've visited twice with our two kids (age 2-6 at the time) and they had great visits. At the same time my wife and I found it to be a great value, enjoyable for us, well run, and easy to visit. The park is Christmas themed, but the rides are fairly standard, but appropriate for small kids and well marked in terms of height/age requirements. There is one roller coaster and a log flume, as well as several other more adventurous rides. At the same time there are plenty of rides for younger kids. Our kids are two years apart and they loved being able to ride the 'Pixie Twist' side by side, by themselves. The park allows you to bring in food and provides easy to use lockers to stow your cooler, so if you want to avoid theme park food you can, but what we tried was not bad. They have a healthy booth, as well as standard fare. Being a Christmas park, kids can visit Santa and get a photo. Additionally one can get a custom embroidered stocking of high quality produced the same day for a great price. Also there are live musical numbers around the park - kind of a mini Broadway of Christmas tunes, like Bing Crosby's White Christmas performed by college students. I will say that the folks that run the park treated us great during our two visits. Everyone is earnest and friendly, and when we had an issue with a charge they quickly remedied the problem. It has been a while since I have trusted a business so completely but when we pull up I feel like they will do everything they can to make sure we have a wonderful visit. Full marks, well worth a visit if you have children under

I love this place. When I was a kid I went here and that was many many years ago. I brought my children here and my younger brother and sister here and my grandchildren here. It has been fun in every season and with every child. Years ago there were three amusement parks in the general area and we would go to all three on a weekend. I feel like Santas Village is the only place that really kept up the park and stayed in tune with the times. It was 11° when we went and at no time would I be outside in 11° weather at home. I can't imagine a reason why I would be out there enjoying the cold but at Santas village we really didn't feel it as much. Granted it was cold but we were so busy and having so much fun and had so much to look forward to that we spent hours before the cold got to our noses and feet. Everything was immaculate and as always the people who work there are so friendly and nice. Santa Claus was charming and the grandchildren and the children and the grandparents all had a wonderful time.

So much more fun than Lego Land! Great for all ages. I am 12 and it was so much fun! If you are going to Lego Land, just go here instead.

You won't be disappointed in Santa's village there is fun for everyone. One of the best parks you will ever go to won't ever get old and they are always creating new activities and rides.

Last time I was at Santa's Village was 8 years ago and I was dying to go back. I love Christmas and I love theme parks so obviously I love Santa's Village. The park was even better then I remember. This place is so perfect at any age, who doesn't love all things Christmas!?!? I liked the new penguin spin coaster and the Himalaya ride is too much fun. The prices on everything from food to gifts are so reasonable. Admission is only $31 a person and you will definitely get your moneys worth. You really have to get there early in order to do everything within the park. We spent 7 hours there and still didn't do it all. The only down side to this park it the lines tend to get a little long but there's nothing you can do about that. I liked the set up at the Burger Meister food place, everything is grab and go so fill up your tray and then go pay for it. Or if your like me and get a wrap they make it fresh to order. Once you get your food there's another venue next to it eat where you sit and eat. We grabbed a little corner booth and it was nice to take a break from all the excitement. I absolutely love Santa's Village I want to come back every year because it's just so much fun.

great place. clean. great staff etc.. only issue in my opinion is there is no supervison up top in the big water park. saw multiple kids pushing playing rough etc. too many little kids up top to not have any supervision. factor in the huge amounts of water that get dumped up top every 5mins. This setup is a recipe for disaster and hopefully gets addressed before the next season.

We absolutely loved our first visit to Santa's Village! We can't wait to go back again next summer. The rides are all age appropriate for 2-6 years old, very family oriented and the park is very clean. My kids loved the Elfabet game where you find the elves throughout the park and get your card stamped with a letter. Goal is collect every letter in the alphabet tree and then you turn it in for a certificate and pencil. Such a fun idea to keep the kids excited and entertained in between rides. We had pizza for lunch and it was tasty and reasonably priced. We LOVED the water park! There are different sections that include a small splash pad to a larger area the pool area with slides. So much to do. You could definitely could spend a whole day at the water park itself. All of the staff we encountered were super friendly especially the Santa at the Sleigh ride. The view of the mountains is amazing from inside the park. Looking forward to making more wonderful family memories here.

Adding my 5 stars like everyone else. This place is amazing. Have been coming here with the kids for years and we're never disappointed. The staff and costumed characters are super friendly; the park is kept immaculate; and the food is good and reasonably priced. Perhaps best of all, the attractions are a blast! They continue to expand and improve and invest in the future of the park. They don't rest on their laurels. They keep getting better and better each year. A perfect example is the Humbug ride, which was already good, but they revamped the whole thing a couple of years ago and now it's really phenomenal. Also, the expansion of the water park area is fantastic. And of course, the replacement of the Rudolph roller coaster is bitter sweet. We had our last ride with Rudy this month (which was sad), but it's great that they will be adding the Midnight Flyer roller coaster next year in an effort to keep the attractions fresh and up to date...which keeps us coming back!!!

This was our second visit to Santa's village. Our first was during the summer and it rained the whole time so we wanted to try it in the winter near Christmas to get the full experience. It was freezing but we were prepared. The kids love finding the elf's to get the stamps on their cards but the prize is super disappointing. It's a keychain.. for a 4 year old with no keys lol I feel like they should hand out little elf figurines at least. They could keep families coming back year after year to collect more! The Santa was very nice,however did have an irregularity with one eye which the children noticed and questioned so we had to say that Rudolph poked him on accident. The kids believed it. All in all we had a great time but enjoyed it more in the summer.

I love this place for a multitude of reasons. Christmas has always been a special time in my family and now I can celebrate with my own kids. There is so much to do for the little ones here. Between the elf university to the real reindeer and all the cool rides the kids were passed out on the way out of the park. It was 14 degrees the day we went and it didn't spoil the fun. The Parking simple and easy. Kids under 3 is free and you can bring in your own food and drinks. The staff was fantastic and super energetic. I can't wait to come back here in a few years.
