One glorious Gingerbread Village in New York is being nationally recognized as one of the best in the country.

Turning Stone’s Gingerbread Village is among the “10 Incredible Hotel Gingerbread Displays” in Forbes Travel Guide, an honor the magazine has bestowed on the holiday tradition several times in the past. It's the only display in New York to make the list that includes some of the most prestigious hotels in the country - the Waldorf Astoria in Chicago, The Ritz-Carlton in both New Orleans and Orlando, and The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs.

The Lodge at Turning Stone Resort’s annual 75-foot-long gingerbread showstopper proves that it does, in fact, take a village, one with a hotel, barn, bakery, Victorian-style home and train station, complete with a moving train.
