To make a reservation for either the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd weekends of the Christmas Lighting Festival, a guest must have stayed three non-Christmas Lighting Festival nights at the Enzian within the past 12 month period. After meeting this requirement, guests may reserve up to three rooms for either the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd weekends of the Christmas Lighting Festival subject to availability. If a guest wishes to make reservations for Christmas Lighting for the following year, reservations begin December 1st at 7:00 am, the current year, for the following year.
