Pack your bags and your camera for the winter wonderland at Holiday Inn Park Central, where toy soldiers, the Claus family and spirited monkeys make scenes that keep the spirit of Christmas alive.
With oversized nutcracker soldiers, cake-decorating seniors and a sneak into Mrs. Claus’ bedroom, hotelier Kathie Rachwal transforms the lobby into scenes of an old-fashioned holiday. Joe Schoolfield, manager, says families return yearly to take family portraits.
