Come home for Christmas

The Grove, dressed for Christmas

One ticket, your whole car, and an entire evening of Christmas magic. Step into the Oak Grove at Cordle Family Estates as thousands of twinkle lights glow through the oaks and snow drifts down every hour. Let the little ones race through Candy Cane Lane, where twinkling trees and oversized glowing candy canes light the way, then snap a family photo in our snowy little Christmas tree farm, made just for pictures, with fluffy snowflakes falling every hour, right here in the heart of St. Augustine.

Warm your hands by the fire, or enjoy a holiday classic at our cozy movie corners. The kids will be busy all evening with the bounce house, the holiday dance floor, the coloring corner and oversized yard games. S’mores, hot cocoa, sweet treats and food truck dinners are available for purchase. We cannot wait to see you there.
