Have yourself a western Christmas at this old-timey Ohio village

There’s a Wild West-themed Christmas attraction tucked away in the hills of southern Ohio.

East of Cincinnati, Dogwood Pass will shine bright during the Christmas season.

The secluded late-1800s Old West Town was designed to be as authentic as possible, a living history town keeping with the spirit of the Old West.

The only thing you’ll find from this century are twinkling lights adorning the wooden facades of the town’s saloon, bank, livery stable and general store.

There’s plenty of Christmas cheer planned for the month of December, including spectacular light shows, holiday performances, Wild West shows and visits from Santa and the Grinch.

The lights will go on beginning Nov. 27, 2021...
