When it comes to fond childhood memories around the Mount Rushmore State, there is nothing quite as carefree and nostalgic as strolling around Storybook Island. From Mother Goose characters to Raggedy Ann and Andy to life-size boats and homes, there is something for children of all ages to love at this unique attraction. Do you need another reason to adore Storybook Island? How about the fact that it becomes all aglow this time of year, thanks to their highly anticipated Christmas Nights Of Light:
Taking place November 29th & 30th, and December 1st, 6th, 7th, 8th, 13th through the 23rd, and the 26th through the 31st, the Christmas Nights Of Light is arguably the most magical light display in western SoDak!
Featuring all of the same characters you have grown to know and love about Storybook Island, the Christmas Nights Of Light manages to create an even more whimsical experience than you are used to, thanks to their tens of thousands of colorful lights and displays.
As if the lights themselves were not reason enough to visit, Jolly Old St. Nick — and a few of his friends — will also be making an appearance every night through December 23rd!
In addition to all of the above, Storybook Island also offers delicious hot chocolate and cider, which is perfect for warming up on those cold winter nights.
