Summary: Hundreds of thousands of lights lit up Naumkeag in Stockbridge, MA

Ranked one of the top 10 winter attractions in the country, Naumkeag’s Winterlights display lived up to its hype this year!

The estate, which boasts a home with a 44 rooms and 40 acres of land, kept visitors in awe with its grandeur.

Every time I photograph a low light event like this I wish I could take my tripod with me. It would be easier from a technical standpoint and the photos would look better. But, for good reasons, they are not usually allowed on the grounds. So, I did my best with my Canon 5D Mark IV with my 24 mm prime (1.4 aperture).

In the garden area, there was a “wish tree.” People could write their wishes for the upcoming year and hang them on a tree.

I wouldn’t mind extra pizza rolls either. And best wishes, Scott.

So many wishes…

There was also an igloo like structure in the garden. You may see some fog that was piped into the area. (to the left of the third photo)

Everything was lit up and very festive looking!

Along the trail there was a cute little greenhouse that was decorated for the holidays!

Along the main trail, there were a variety of lights and objects that were lit up!

This tree to the right of the photo reminded me of the trees un the Wizard Of Oz for some reason!

These very unique lights looked like insects.

There were also these brightly lit hut like structures you could walk through.

From a distance, the main attraction of the display, the trees along the path looked majestic all lit up!

But, they looked even better up close.

There were also places to sit by the fire and get a beverage or two.

There were also decorations and a piano player at the home at Naumkeag.

The case in the photo below has a special collection of nutcrackers.

It’s hard to believe yet another holiday has come and gone! But, don’t fret! If you’re in New England, you only have 3 or 4 more moths of bone chilling weather!
