At Bayou Bend, you park and cross the lit up suspension bridge to see thousands of lights and have all the fun.
See the video (from past years) below:
We went on a school night and it was not too crowded... but last year we went on a Friday by Christmas, and it was packed! As we get closer to Christmas, I recommend arriving at opening... or later in the evening to try to avoid some of the crowds.
The kids had a great time throwing the cotton "snow balls", sledding down the faux-snow slide and playing at the music-bell stations.
For a $5 upgrade, you can take tours of Ima Hogg’s historic mansion, which feature live actors, theatrical effects and Christmas decorations. Priority parking is $10 (cash only). Parking in other lots is free.
Look at the pictures!
