Children share their wish lists, check that they made the nice list and pose for a keepsake photo taken by the resort's photographers. Visits are booked by entry time through the resort's ticketing site, and a photo package must be bought for the experience; personal cameras and phones are not allowed for the photo. Because it is indoors, it works on cold or snowy days, and families can pair it with the resort's other ticketed holiday activities such as ice! (the carved-ice exhibit), gingerbread decorating, indoor snow tubing and Elf Training Academy, which are sold separately or in discounted activity bundles. All sales are final, the resort is cashless, and parking is not included. ## Similar picks in Denver - [Santa Photo Experience at Colorado Mills](https://grassyknees.com/denver/activities/santa-photo-experience-at-colorado-mills--listing-2223b4eda54f83bb2bf2c3f6) — Nov 14 – Dec 24 · Colorado Mills, Lakewood · checked Oct 27.
