Vintage Village of Lights in Cumberland, Ontario welcomes all to step back in time and bask in the magic of the Christmas season with wonderful light displays and decor.
An all-season-worthy adventure, Cumberland Village is a historic place founded by United Empire Loyalists in the early 1800s, according to Ottawa Tourism.
“Today it’s home to a vibrant arts and crafts scene of quilters and weavers,” shares the site.
But for the holidays, the charming Christmas escape transports you to a “postcard-perfect” heritage village from the 1920s and ’30s.

The whimsical experience will look straight out of an old Christmas postcard, where every corner reveals a new festive vignette or dazzling display.
Kids and adults alike will love catching up with Santa—he’s ready for his close-up, so don’t forget your camera!
