TOUR LOCATIONS

OCTAGON HOUSE
Exhibition will include displays and interpretation focused on Old World Christmas traditions in the New World. Visitors to the Octagon House will learn the origins of traditions carried from the Old World, shared among settler families (like the Moffat’s of the Octagon House in Hudson), and blended into a New World Christmas.

FOURTH STREET HOME
A modern farmhouse in downtown Hudson filled with windows offering views of the St. Croix River as well as Prospect Park. The eclectic decorating style includes unique souvenirs and mementos in addition to greenery throughout the home.

AUDUBON LANE HOME
What started as a simple cabin in the early 1900s is now a mid-century modern ranch style home overlooking Lake Mallalieu. It features simple details, white woodwork, an exterior stone fireplace, an interior fireplace with a slate and cherry hearth, a cherry guitar wall, a ‘60s mid-century room, fir and slate floors, and a large deck.

FRIENDSKEEP GREEN HOME
Each room of a home that could be described as a San Francisco modern beach house features a different theme, providing a variety of Christmas experiences. This will surely get you in the holiday spirit. Look for the secret passageway connecting the children’s rooms.

SIXTH STREET HOME
A Queen Anne Victorian includes original flooring, woodwork, and Eastlake style hardware. The main level is decorated with Bradbury and Bradbury wallpapers featuring nature-inspired designs. You will find art pieces from around the world on every level. Each room has a different theme, each doorway is a portal to a new world. Expect the unexpected with its eccentric and whimsical elements.
