Mill Hollow’s Old Fashioned Holiday

Nov
28–29

Step back in time to the late 1800s to enjoy the holiday season with the Bacon family, who eventually donated their land to the metro parks. During our annual event, Old-Fashioned Holiday, visitors are welcomed into the Bacon house as they celebrate the holidays. Tour the original 1845 home where a cast of re-enactors greet you as they personify the Bacon family. Learn about this area’s unique and historical past while enjoying a 20-minute tour where you experience the real sights, fragrances, and sounds of an old-fashioned holiday. Along with touring the Benjamin Bacon Museum, horse-drawn carriage rides, refreshments, and live entertainment will be available. Join us for a celebration of a pioneer holiday! All ages are welcome to attend and admission is free. The Bacon family and their friends hope to see you then!
Saturday, 3 pm – 8 pm – Sunday, 2 pm – 6 pm.
