The park is located on Highway 53 between Lower Lake and the city of Clearlake.
Santa Claus will be there to greet children and hand out treats. Christmas songs will be performed by local entertainers with the public invited to join in.
The Christmas tree, decorated with the help of local elementary students, will be on display in the parlor of the historical ranch house at the park. Free hot cider, coffee, and lots of cookies and other treats will be provided.
Entertainers include Dr. Harry Lyons from Yuba College, Rick McCann, Tom Nixon, Middletown’s David Neft, Bluegrass musician, Don Coffin, Anna McAtee, Gaye Henry, and Joan Moss and friends.
This is a great opportunity to visit the historical ranch house at the park. The event has been a favorite holiday tradition for many years; and is continuing this year with the help of many local volunteers. Christmas at the Ranch was started by the original members of the Anderson Marsh Interpretive Association (AMIA) and is continuing to be presented by the association. The event is designed to welcome visitors to the house to enjoy the warm and festive atmosphere.
Christmas music is enjoyed by all and Santa waits in the parlor for youngsters to tell him of their Christmas wishes. A fire burns cheerily in the dining room where cookies, hot coffee, and cider are served. The Interpretive Society’s gift store will be open where you might find just the right unique item for that hard-to-please person on your Christmas list.
The public is warmly invited to attend this traditional, relaxed, and fun holiday event. Join the volunteers of the Anderson Marsh Interpretive Association for an old-fashioned Christmas open house at the ranch.
