Snuggle under woolen blankets and enjoy a truly unique experience at Fantasy of Lights – a horse drawn carriage ride! The stillness of night is broken only by the clippity-clop of horse's hooves and the jingle bells around their necks as you leisurely ride through the holiday lights event in a beautiful, turn-of-the-century 20-foot handcrafted carriage.
Steve Cornelius, carriage driver, resplendent in top hat and dress coat takes the reins of the carriage he built that is pulled by two Shetland/half Belgian draft ponies. Carriage rides are available every Friday and Saturday, and reservations are advised. Call Steve at Cornelius Carriages (Columbia City, IN) at (260) 691-3780 for reservations and prices.
