We were fortunate enough to make it to Santa Claus House several years ago. I sat in Santa's lap (I'm 71) and my husband taped it for our grandchildren. Santa asked where the children lived, it's a tiny town in south Alabama, when I told him the name of the town he described exactly where it is. I left a believer! We loved North Pole, Alaska, especially Santa Claus House and the reindeer.

9 Years ago my husband and I had our honeymoon in Alaska. We sent 10 days driving around the state starting in Anchorage going to Glenallen up to the North Pole than to Fairbanks down through Denali back to Anchorage and down to Seaward. We stopped at the Santa Clause house while we were there and that was definitely a major highlight from our trip. We got a nativity set that was featured in an icehouse and had Inuit people as the characters. Not to mention common Alaskan animals instead of the traditional cannel, goat, sheep. We put it up every year and it by far is our favorite nativity set we have. Thank you so much for share the history of the North Pole and of the Santa Clause house! Just makes us appreciate it all so much more!!! Also, we just adopted another dog who we named Fairbanks!!! 😀

We have been fortunate enough to make the trip up to the Yukon and Alaska twice and stopped at Santa Claus House both times. Some of our most cherished Christmas decorations were purchased there. Love the new addition, was really needed! Could go back to that store over and over, it is so magical! Was nice seeing it again. Merry Christmas from Alberta, Canada!

Santa's house looks like a store we have in our area. They have amazing toys, ornaments, trees and decorations you really can't find anywhere else locally. They also have a indoor display that you walk through with different themes in each area. It's a tradition for many families to visit that store for Christmas and Easter.

We visited North Pole in September 2014 and stopped off at the Santa house to send postcards to all the kids in my Kindergarten class and my friends back home in Mandurah Western Australia. Even though it was summer it certainly was an experience for us who are used to 100 degree F Christmases when we usually swim and try and keep cool on Christmas Day.

My late husband & I were blessed to spend 2 summers in Alaska after we retired in '98. We visited Santa Claus house both times, loved it then & purchased beautiful ornaments & tee-shirts for kids & grandkids etc. Wow! What a transformation now! It is so big & modern & still full of wonder! Thanks for showing us. We did like the Fairbanks area of Alaska. Loved the long hours of daylight in the summer! God bless your family & have a very merry Christmas!

I needed cheering up today as my daughter and son-in-law are expecting first baby and on the ultrasound today they found too much fluid at the base of the neck and belly and now have to have genetic testing to rule out Downs syndrome, Turners syndrome and Trisomy 18. They will not find out the results for 2 weeks. It is heartbreaking I know for them as she had fertility issues and surgery for it and they have been married for 5 years. Put them on your prayer list that everything turns out okay. This next 2 weeks is going to be hard for all of us and nerve racking.
