Pratt Brother’s Christmas

Came here for the first time with my mom as she is in town for the Christmas holiday. Seen many videos on social media. The place did not disappoint! Yes, it is expensive but I think that's how the brothers can keep the place up and afford to put on such a great show and place. We came around 8pm which was the perfect time as it wasn't too crowded. They have two shops to shop at and many places for hot chocolate, s'mores, small movie theater, a cowboy show, and you can't miss the gingerbread house light show that runs about every 20-30 mins. It's either best to get there early or wait till close to the end to catch the train ride to see the lights. Which also tells a cute story along the ride. They also have an area where it tells the brothers story of how it all started to where they are now. A great place to take the whole family or a cute holiday date. I say it's worth the money for the experience.

Beautiful lights everywhere! The train ride was a hit and the light show was amazing. My niece loved it and it was certainly magical.

As parents we encourage our adult children and Grandson to join us last evening and we have Never had this kind of fun! Although our children live out of state they even enjoyed wearing their Christmas PJ's a 5 star event and an Amazing Christmas Experience

It was way too expensive. The lines were too long, the "experiences" were poor & I feel like no one loves the Pratt brothers more than the Pratt brothers love the Pratt brothers - They mentioned themselves every chance they got.

The lights, snow, train ride and parade were the highlights. My low stars is because the tables where people ate were all covered with bird dropping. THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE AND UNSANITARY AND SHOULD BE REPORTED TO THE HEALTH/FOOD DEPARTMENTS.

Entrance is $43 per adult with fees to see a few houses plastered in lights. Aside from their gingerbread house which does put on a neat little show, you can find far more interesting light displays in neighborhoods around town. You basically pay to shop in a couple shops with very little merchandise, and eat at one of two carnie type food stands. Definitely make sure you eat elsewhere before you go. We had really high hopes for this experience after all the marketing but this felt like a waste. Maybe if you're just looking for a festive place to drink with friends, this could be cool. Otherwise go to the Princess or one of the other Christmas experiences.

Waited two hours to see Santa and then Santa went on break. The line wasn't that long. Never saw Santa. The lights were cool but something is seriously wrong with the Santa experience.

Perfect to get you in the Christmas spirit. Great as a date night, with friends, or with family. I would recommend getting there right when they open to get on the train because the line gets very long. There is a parade, a couple shops, food (carnival type food trucks), and drinks available. There is also a western stunt show, but the line was too long so we did not see. We also did not do the s'mores making or cookie decorating because the line to buy them was too long. This was the reason I did not give 5 stars - there were way too many people and I feel like they over sold tickets. There were long lines for every single thing. If you can afford the VIP tickets, it would be worth it for this reason. We still had a good time though and I would recommend checking it out at least once!

This was the first year my family has been to the Pratts Brothers at Rawhide and we decided to splurge on VIP tickets. We arrived at 6pm, opening time, and headed straight over to see Santa. While getting in line, the staff made us aware the wait for Santa at that time was 1 hour and 55 minutes, Which is absolutely absurd given it was just opened. She said the previous night the wait was 3 hours and 45 minutes and laughed it off, which was very rude. Of course there was no VIP line for Santa, just have to waste your entire time there in line if you wanted to see Santa, which of course, was one of the only things my son wanted to do. Thankfully, we did get the VIP And we were able to ride the "unlimited" train once bc of that short line, until after 7pm when even the VIP was insane. The general admission line backed all the way up into the city, past the cookie decorating. Those people probably waited in line for hours, And I bet Sam waited and didn't even get to get on the train. If you cannot accommodate all of the people, I'm not sure why tickets were sold to all of those people. Plenty of other Christmas events I've gone to usually sell out the day or two before, so that things like this don't happen. We weren't able to go to the shootout show either due to the incredibly long lines at each time, 7:15, 8:45 and 9:20, we tried them all. What a joke. I'm well aware that these events can get very busy And crowded, But clearly, your venue did not have the capacity for all of the tickets you sold. After paying $240 for three tickets, I left with a crying 7 year old who didn't get to see Santa, with one day left before Christmas for me to take him somewhere else. At least the Pratt brothers made some money though, as that truly seems to be all they care about. I have never been this disappointed for what was supposed to be a fun family filled Christmas event. I spent my hard earned money here and I wish I would've chose somewhere else.

Definitely not worth it. Waited over 2 hours to see Santa. The line was not long but entering we were told the line would take hour and 15 minutes. We accepted it and split up. Husband stayed in line with baby and 2 year old in stroller while I took our 6 and 4 year old to do the other activities. Well MAYJOR FAIL. There were no other activities to do without also waiting in line for over an hour. If you have kids close to the ages I mentioned, I would recommend Schnepf Farms, The Princess or Desert Lights. Had great times there throughout the years Lines are long at all those places as well, but there is a lot more to do for similar price point.
