Nelis Dutch Village

“Step back into the Netherlands of over 100 years ago with authentic Dutch architecture, flowering gardens, canals and windmills. The history and culture of the Dutch come to life as the staff, dressed in native costumes including wooden shoes, demonstrate village life. There is a little something for everyone at Dutch village with the heritage, rides and a petting zoo! The kids can even walk a goat!”
