Holiday Lantern Tours

Stroll through our charming 19th-century village as costumed residents welcome you into their beautifully decorated homes, sharing stories, songs, and seasonal surprises from holidays long ago. Enjoy the sights, sounds, and spirit of the Western Reserve — just as it was celebrated in the 1850!

Your evening doesn’t end there! After the tour, warm up with sweet treats and discover unique gifts during holiday shopping inside the Gatehouse in the MarketPlace. From shimmering hand-blown glass ornaments, pitchers, and vases to beautifully wheel-thrown pottery, each piece carries the warmth, craftsmanship, and history of Hale. These one-of-a-kind treasures make thoughtful holiday gifts, perfect keepsakes, and heirloom-quality decorations. You’ll also find handmade candles, naturally dyes and spun wool, locally inspired goods, and unique stocking stuffers you won’t see anywhere else!
