Kleerview typically opens to the public around Thanksgiving, and it is a fun place to visit as the holiday season picks up. Hot cocoa and occasional appearances by Santa make it an extra special destination.
It's home to more than a dozen reindeer, who just might be Santa's own team! None of them have a glowing red nose, but hey... you never know.
