It is with heavy hearts but many magical memories that Cypress Trails heads towards the final few days of being open, featuring our Festive Forest Winter Light Show. We have had so many beautiful moments over the past 5 years. We deeply appreciate everyone who came out and shared in the magical moments at our holiday light shows, Twisted Trails Halloween Show, and summer music festivals. We would greatly appreciate any help spreading the word about our final nights or sharing your special memories. We are open nightly 5:30-8:30 through Saturday, December 20, which is our final night. We will have nightly specials and giveaways to show our appreciation.
To all of our supporters, we hope you will join us one last time. We would love to see you!

We had our first light show on Thanksgiving night in 2021, and it was a dream come true to see all the smiling faces, people enjoying our lighted trails, winding their way through the maze, and taking photos with family and friends. And what a blast to hear the shrill sounds during the Halloween Show. We think it might have been more funny popping up and startling adults than kids on our scary trail for Halloween!
Here's to all the talented musicians who played during our Trails and Ales, Firefly Music Festival, and other events!
