A Castle Christmas 2017

Enjoy a Variety of Family Holiday Activities

Celebrate the best of family holiday traditions at The Castle of Muskogee! Take a leisurely drive through the Castleton Village, which is filled with thousands of holiday lights and displays. The drive through is free, and donations are gratefully accepted. Outside The Castle, guests may enjoy rides on an old fashioned hayride or the festive Castle Train, both of which provide visitors with a unique experience through the Castle displays.
“We’ll have the train running every night, even when the inside isn’t open, so you’ll always have something to do at the Castle,” said Matt Hiller, Owner of the Castle of Muskogee. “Three big holiday events are going on at the same time in Muskogee, but be sure to start off at the Castle because we’re ready to go at dusk.”
Also in the Village area, the little ones may ride the cutest holiday ponies in town! For a different vantage point, Eli’s Camels will be returning to provide rides to all ages around the Village area. Just want to hang out and snap photos? Grab a bag of Kettle Corn and enjoy the festive environment of the Castle gates before you head inside.
Once inside The Castle, guests may warm up and enjoy a variety of family holiday activities: Crafting ornaments in Santa’s workshop, Wax Hands and Make Your Own Candle, Stuff it Up – Plush Adoptions, Face painting .. and so much more! Shop local! Discover handmade creations for the special people on your holiday list. You can also purchase items from The Christmas Shoppe or the Castle Gift Shop for your own holiday displays or holiday keepsakes. Join us in the Castle Cafe for a light supper or snack, hot chocolate and treats! Sit and enjoy complimentary holiday movies for the whole family. Visit the Castle’s website for a complete schedule of nightly activities.
In nearby Honor Heights Park, the “Garden of Lights” attracts thousands of visitors. The celebration includes a free drive-through display of over a million shimmering lights exhibited throughout the park.
