Sounds similar to Santa’s Village in New Hampshire. Somewhat close to Story Land in the White Mountains area, but I can’t remember the town it’s in. Jefferson, maybe? It was alright when I went as a kid, but damn hot. I think they’ve since added a water park so that’s an improvement, but it definitely needed more shady areas at the very least. I want to Indiana last year and do find it to be nice state, so I’ll have to consider Holiday Park if I ever go to Santa Claus.
New England theme parks rule! My mom says when she was a kid, there was another Story Land location in Cape Cod. Don’t know which part exactly, but she visited it probably when she was a toddler, maybe three or four years old. I’ll have to ask my elder aunts and uncles if they remember anything more about it. It was probably the early 1960s when she went and she’s not sure when they closed it. Internet didn’t have a ton of info on it last time I checked.
