That’s fun! 👻

We're excited to bring back one of our favorite fall traditions this October! Ghost Walk at Century Village Museum returns October 23–24, offering enchanting lantern-lit evening tours, fascinating local legends, historic stories, and a glimpse of the village you'll only see after dark. If you’ve joined us before, you already know how truly special these nights are. If not, we warmly invite you to experience the magic this year and see what everyone’s been talking about. Keep an eye out for ticket details coming soon!

Wondering where to watch our drone show this weekend? 🗺️✨

The show will launch from the campground and the show display can likely be seen for miles around, but local landscapes and tree lines mean some spots offer a much clearer view than others. Check out the map image below for our top recommended viewing area to make sure you get the best sightlines for the performance! 🌌

Viewing Area: Great viewing can be found on the back lawn of the Manor and near the campground! Lawn chairs and blankets are strongly encouraged for the main open lawn areas around the lodge grounds. Just note that a few outdoor spaces and patios may be off limits, so plan your spot accordingly!

Showtime: The drone display launches around 9:00 PM. Arrive early to secure lawn space before dark, as parking lots are expected to fill quickly during afternoon festivities.
