Went out for the experience of looking for and cutting down a fresh Christmas tree, and was rather disappointed. The property is huge, and we did find a decent tree, but the selection of Fraser Firs was very meager. Most of what they had growing in the field were scraggly or very small. Not what you would expect, for the No. 1 most popular Christmas tree variety in the country. Also, the Fraser's have very sharp needles, not like the ones you get pre-cut from most big box stores. I'm talking sharp, as in, they hurt when you touch them. So, not sure what's going on there. They had plenty of Douglas Firs, and other less popular types.
The other negative is that this farm is located far away from any commerical areas, and they had NO bathroom facilities. No port-a-jons, nothing. Not good. It's a family business, so the employees live on the property, and can use there own homes. But customers are on their own. :(
On the positive side, the staff is very friendly and helpful, and they had plenty of pre-cut Fraser Firs, which looked very nice, and lots of wreaths, and other Christmas decorations. So, if you are local, and not seeking the u-choose/u-cut experience, this is a good option. read more
