Why Ferndale Is One of America's Best Christmas Towns

Nestled in a pastoral valley near the California Redwoods, the historic coastal town of Ferndale—legendary for its lovingly preserved Victorians and Normal Rockwell-esque Main Street—is pure magic at Christmas. A glowing downtown with a towering living Christmas tree (America’s tallest), picturesque setting between farms and forest, and spirit of small-town Americana make this historic hamlet one of America's best towns to visit for the holidays.
