The program runs from 5 to 8 p.m. nightly.
Homestead Holidays encourages you and your loved ones to take a step back and time, and come to enjoy live music, delicious hot Kiwanis Chili, carriage rides, twinkle light displays, crafts, Santa photos, and much more.
Carson City Parks, Recreation & Open Space is pleased to announce this new community special event. Silver Saddle Ranch is is working ranch, yet it is part of the Carson City Open Space Program.
Come celebrate the holidays with your family and friends and enjoy the thousands of lights decorating the historic barns, house, fences, and cottonwood trees.
