Santa flies in to light the big, fat evergreen in the middle of Pennsylvania Park at Petoskey’s Holiday Open House, always held on the first Friday of December. After, Santa visits with wee ones in the park gazebo, resplendent in lights and garland for the occasion. After greeting Santa, spend the weekend wandering the shops. Here’s a peek at the gifts you’ll find.
