Holiday Spectacular Park - Newton, Alabama

ive read alot of the reviews and some of you!!!! This place is wanderful we enjoy it. People smoke the owners or workers cant walk around all night looking for the people that are smoking. They have a job to do. If a worker is smoking let them!!!! They are at work instead of being home with their family!!! Your outsode not in a building you can choose to walk away frok the smoke. They may have new owners give then time to get it together! If your in line for a hay ride and you choose to let people push you out of line that is on you. I wpuldnt let anyone just push me around. They are workers not mircle workers. Alot is out of their cintrol like at your jon you habe a boss that boss has aboss they cant solve every problem most problems they have no control over!!! If you feel like the lights are not tight enoughtuen dont go!!! As well as you should be watching your children!! Its not the workers job title to watch your children for you!! This is a great place! Im sure the fee doesnt half way cover the expensi to keep this place going so thank you guys for all you do cant waot for next year how is 8 dollars a insane price beats me!!! The tractors have fums if they had four going whats the problem if they only had one tractor going that wpuld of been a issue but since they had four going yet somehow you find anither issue its like damn of they do damn if they dont your outside with plenty of air walk away from the fumes!!!!! If construction was going on at nught time how is that their fault they are not super heros they cant tell other compqnies when to work just because they own a business!!! Plenty of store run out of product but they still keepnthe dpors open give them a break your suppise to pay attentipn to your child its not their place to baby sit so what if they was on the phone
you dont think they maybe they was tending to their childs needs they are suppose to sit their and make sure you follow the rules and not break their stuff they aint suppose to watch your children for you
when theley talk over the speaker they are being told if that person lost thier parents tp drugs they didnt just come up with it what is wrong with pmront of children children hear people go down a bad road but god saved them but its okay to do it in church in front of children

god doesnt jidge and can speak testomine anywjere its no dofferent then dping it in church

Not as many vendors. Was really looking forward to roasted corn. No vendors sold any . The lights are always amazing. Grand children had a really great time. Us olders always enjoy the campfires. Face painting was very good. BBQ sandwich was great so were the peanuts. Coffee was good pizzas also. Definitely will be going back next year. And the hay ride to and from is always a joy. As we were leaving the park on the hayride our granddaughter said bye Christmas extravaganza see you next year you were great again. ❤️❤️❤️

No one was running or paying attention at the paint ball archery area. Kids couldn't go down the big slide because workers had there young kids there unsupervised and standing in the way. The zip line was nice the gentleman that put my kids on it was nice and caring and made sure to check the kids before he put them on it and make sure they were comfortable be fore sending them down.

Not what it used to be. The lights are sagging and everything looks ran down. It's almost like they pull the plug on the last day and don't perform any upkeep between seasons. I used to go here every year and it was magical. I heard that the original owner passed away. If that's true, I'm afraid the magic left with them. It is not worth the $8 cover to get in. It's definitely not worth the $15 to do the few extras. Save your money and drive around Dothan and look at some of the houses that are decorated. Trust me, you'll be much happier. However, if you enjoy the smell of second hand smoke, you will absolutely enjoy the hay ride in and out of the park. The drivers give complementary puffs to everyone, young and old, as they drive. You don't even have to ask.

Beautiful lights but alot we're turned off and there was not hardly any of the attractions but good price on hot dogs and hamburgers. We tried to ride the hay ride was the first in line but once again was pushed out of the way by other people over all had a fun night out with the family and kids

Was okay... Ate in their restaurant and literally took an hour to get our food and we were literally the only ppl there the 1st 20 mins or so... Also, there were a lot of lights not working... I'm sure it was a lot better when they opened a few years ago, but they leave the lights up all year so weather and animals have messed up a good bit of them. It's a pretty place with a gorgeous bridge you ride over, but there wasn't as much to do as I thought....
I will say their Santa was excellent and the girl painting faces was very talented!

I really don’t know how this place has good reviews. What a disappointment. Things that were advertised on the website were not present once we got to the little ‘park’ area. Half the lights didn’t work. Instead of removing old strands, it looked like then just wrapped new strands around them. There was a Santa sleigh on top of a tractor trailer and all of the deer were knocked over. Had to explain to my nieces that those weren’t Santa’s REAL reindeer and that his are in perfect health waiting for Christmas Eve. ? The website needs to be updated. The games listed for the kids weren’t there. No face painting, no roasted corn. The only vendors there sold hot chocolate, hot dogs, and pizza. Had to listen to construction going on the whole time we were there. Why couldn’t that have been done during the day time? There was no structure. They drop you off and you are just supposed to wander around. They don’t tell you how to get back to the parking lot. Such a disaster and definitely NOT worth the fee to get in.

This place was a big mess. When you turn in you think alright, I looks great at a distance, than we get on a trailer pulled by a Jeep that really needs a tune-up. We got to the village and it looks like they put it together at the last minute. But on a good note they did have a really good Santa claus.i wouldn't go back if they paid me.
