Crowds are much lower at that time of year than they are in June. Also weather is much cooler and more comfortable. But, DO TAKE winter clothes also. Some days (especially evenings during the fireworks) are very chilly and even downright cold. Be sure to have sweat shirts, jeans, jackets, gloves and hats with you. As long as you have these items you will have a great time. Just be prepared! Early to Mid December is our favorite time to go!
