Kringle Kottage in Lake George: A New Sensory-Friendly Santa Experience
Stay tuned for 2026 info!
Enjoy Personal Time With Santa
Kringle Kottage is a peaceful, individualized alternative to noisy, high-traffic Santa experiences. Families can reserve a private, 15-minute appointment for their child or loved one to meet Santa in a calm, sensory-considerate setting.
These sessions are reserved specifically for guests with sensory sensitivities or special needs. During booking, caregivers can provide information to help tailor the environment, like adjusting lighting, sound, and décor to suit each guest’s comfort level.
Santa and his volunteer elves receive specialized training to ensure that every child and adult feels safe, welcomed, and celebrated.
Christmas Charm in Every Detail
The Kringle Kottage feels like it was transported directly from the North Pole. Situated on the grounds of the Fort William Henry Hotel, the charming holiday cabin features frosted windows, a fireplace, dormer rooflines, and a whimsical train gliding overhead.
Inside, the space is designed to reduce sensory overload. Lights can be dimmed, sounds softened, and decorations adjusted to create a calming, magical experience for every visitor.
Festive Fun Beyond the Cabin
Holiday cheer extends beyond the cozy walls of the Kottage. Families can enjoy a warm and festive outdoor environment that includes:
- Firepits for gathering and staying warm
- Hot drinks to sip while waiting
- Family-friendly holiday activities
