Frankenmuth, Michigan

Frankenmuth, Michigan, home of Bronner's Christmas Wonderland, the world's largest Christmas store was #30 on House Beautiful's top 30 list. Frankenmuth is a town that should be on everyone's bucket list any time of year. However, the town comes alive the closer we get to Christmas time. Frankenmuth, Michigan is easily in the top 5 best Christmas towns in the United States of America.

Santa Claus, Indiana

Santa Claus, Indiana home of Holiday World, ranked #29 in House Beautiful's top 30 Christmas towns. The writers of that article have clearly never experienced Holiday World or Santa Claus, Indiana in general. Holiday World is one of the best amusement parks whether you are a fan of Christmas or not. But if you are the type of person who has the Holiday spirit all year long, the place is the snowballs. Much like Frankenmuth, Santa Claus, Indiana should be in the top 5 of this list.
