The Seiberling Mansion is elegant, without being gaudy, and we were able to explore it on our own. One leaves with the sense of what life was like for a wealthy family in the early 1900's. We also learned about the contributions the Steiberlings made to industry and the Kokomo area. While we liked the whole estate, the ball room, with it's balcony, was a highlight. Leland P Gamson

Reviewed By F2683EMbobm - Kokomo, United States

It was such a beautiful experience driving thru the We Care Park of lights with my family. We ended up parking off site and walking thru the many walk-ways to see the displays up close. Even though it was a very very cold evening it was still a great experience seeing the liitle kids talking to Santa, getting a cup of hot chocolate and actually bumped into family! Turned out to be a wonderful evening.
