Polar Caboose Holiday Experience
Step into the magic of the season with Steamboat Creates’ Polar Caboose Holiday Experience—a nostalgic, family-friendly adventure inside our beautifully decorated historic train caboose. Each Saturday, guests are welcomed by our friendly Conductor for a festive tour filled with holiday music, cozy charm, and plenty of cheer.
Create your own holiday ornament, sip on hot chocolate with fun toppings, and snap memorable photos at our festive train-themed selfie station. It’s a heartwarming experience designed for kids, families, and anyone who loves a touch of holiday wonder.
Capacity inside the caboose is limited; advance tickets are strongly recommended. Walk-up tickets available as space allows.
Climb aboard and make magical holiday memories at the Polar Caboose Holiday Experience!
