In December of 2004, the first History of the Christmas Tree Walk began when the owners opened their 9,500 sq. log home to the public to view over 30 decorated Christmas Trees, each decorated with a different theme or from a different period in history. The ornaments, decorations and other holiday displays offered visitors to the home an insight into Christmas history from the 1850s until the present. That first year, there were more than 800 visitors. In 2019, there were over 4,500 visitors, the highest number to date! In 2021, the Walk continued with over 2,000 people visiting the home, some of which chose to enjoy a meal provided by Foxfire Fixin's. Many families now make the History of the Christmas Tree Walk a yearly tradition. The log home is a private residence that has three levels which are accessible by log stairs. The house is not handicap accessible. Persons who have difficulty walking or climbing stairs will only be able to access the lowest level of the home. There is no smoking allowed in the home. No outside food or beverages will be allowed in the home. Visitors to the Walk will be asked to cover their shoes with plastic shoe protectors that will be provided at the door to the home. Alternately, shoes or boots can be removed upon entering the home, if desired. Children are welcome, but must remain with their parents at all times and cannot be allowed to handle objects in the home or on the trees. No strollers will be allowed in the house. Pets are not allowed. Cameras are welcome. Thank you for your consideration and your patronage.
