From the reviews
Their family had been doing this for many years although we only discovered them a couple years ago. Many light displays on the property with a visit to the homestead on the lake. Tours done by hayride with walking tour of the home, which is fully decorated, inside and out.
My family and I enjoyed this place. My 16 months old son loved every minute of it. It was an awesome experience. If you’re looking for something to do as a family and want to enjoy beautiful lights this Christmas, this place is the perfect place to visit.
Stumbled upon this Christmas display while visiting the area. Wonderful lights, vendors, and snacks for purchase. Nice hayride through the display, and you can be dropped off and picked up while visiting. Several spots throughout to take pictures with family and friends. Visited on a weekend night and wasn't too busy.
What a wonderfully magical place!!! My son loved the lights, the tour of Santas house and the gracious elves giving out free cocoa and cookies🍪. It was well worth the $20 a piece!! He was free because he's 3.
Getting married at Wayside At Cottom Farm
Wayside At Cottom Farm comes up for weddings, going by their listing and couples’ reviews. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
