Description
Travel back to a time when things were a whole lot simpler. Crossroads Village is a Great Lakes town from the turn of the century with 34 historic structures and a thriving community. Enjoy a 40-minute journey on an authentic Baldwin Steam locomotive, the Huckleberry Railroad, take a scenic ride on the Genesee Belle, a replica of the paddlewheel riverboats that were popular during Mark Twain's time, catch a show at the Colwell Opera House or learn a trade from one of the village's craftspeople. Celebrate Independence Day at the village featuring all kinds of fun games, an old fashioned ice cream social, midway games, face painting and a flag retirement ceremony. It is recommended that Huckleberry Railroad train tickets by purchased in advance as the train often sells out.
