Christmas at the Mansion

Arbor Lodge State Historical Park 2600 Arbor Avenue, Nebraska City

Step back in time and experience the holidays the way the Morton family did with a one-of-a-kind Christmas at the Mansion experience. See the 52-room Arbor Lodge Mansion at its festive best during the holiday season. Enjoy vintage décor, special holiday-themed collections on display, and holiday music to get you into the spirit of the season.

Santa’s Lost Reindeer at the Tree Adventure

Arbor Day Farm Tree Adventure 2611 Arbor Avenue, Nebraska City

Santa’s reindeer are lost inside the Tree Adventure, and we need your help to find them! Join with family and friends in a fun-for-all-ages scavenger hunt to discover where the reindeer are hiding along the Tree House Trail. Then use our special mailbox to send a letter to Santa to let him know where to find his reindeer in time for his Christmas ride!

12 Days of Christmas Elf Hunt

Arbor Day Farm 2611 Arbor Avenue, Nebraska City

Celebrate the holiday season with a fun-for-all-ages Elf Hunt and a chance to win a 1/2 price admission coupon, good for your next visit! You choose where to play — either the Tree Adventure or Arbor Lodge Mansion or both! Grab an Elf Hunt sheet when you arrive, note the locations of all the elves hidden along the trails at the Tree Adventure or throughout the mansion, and win the coupon to be used at a later date.

Brunch and Santa

Timbers at Lied Lodge 2700 Sylvan Road, Nebraska City
