We went to Santa Clause Indiana and had one of the best family vacations ever!!! It was simple, inexpensive and just wholesome family fun! What there is to do is a camp ground where you can rent cabins (with electricity and bathrooms!) or an trailer/mobile home at their campground. Or you can RV or tent camp (I'm not a tent camper - Holiday Inn is my type of camping!!!LOL!) Next to is is an amusement park called Holiday World which is meant for smaller children. It is only about $20 a day to get in and if you go back the next day it is free. You can buy discount reduced tickets at the little grocery store/gas station in town. The amusement park also has a water park that is made for smaller children. We spent one day on the rides and one day at the water park. The campground also has a lake where you can go swimming, fishing and boating. At night we built a bonfire and roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. We went about 4 years ago and the kids still talk about it. At that time my kids were 1,5,6 and 8.
It sounds a little Chevy Chase Vacation like but it was fun and really inexpensive!!
