This place has some personality! I love the creepy skull santa clause with baby dolls for eyes! I didnt go in, I think you need to make reservations. Theres a lot of lights that in sure look awesome at night!

My cousin told me about this place and made an appointment for me. You have to text the number as he doesn’t take phone calls. Kenny, the artist/homeowner, will give you instructions on what to do when you arrive. He gives you an hour to view the art on the property but tells you to meet him after 45 minutes, so he can tell you about the art. He stresses that you don’t rush through. We were finished pretty early because it was so hot, but we wanted to hear him talk about the art. It wasn’t really meaningful and mostly sounded like a spiel. He didn’t sound passionate at all. The main goal is to sell you some of his resin art (displayed in a little shed) and/or to get a donation from you. It was a bit of an uncomfortable experience because he was extremely pushy about it. I should’ve read reviews beforehand. Just FYI, the exit is the way you come in which we didn’t know, so we thought he was blocking our way out. I would let him know if you’re leaving early out of politeness if you decide to do that. The art on the property is collected items. A lot of it is painted over. Could be scary for children. Is worth a visit if you’re in the area, but I wouldn’t travel to see it specifically.

A place for the weird and unusual. I got holiday apocalyptic vibe. Mechanical reindeer, creepy Santa's and skull trees. Make an appointment, you can easily text him and say "I wanna come at this time" just don't be late! Lol This is a GREAT surprise. I had no expectations when coming here and was blown away. I went alone in the middle of 11am PS hot. Every way you turn is thought out. What a genius! I was stunned at how this was designed. I gave it 4 stars because the artist of the home is a stereotypical artsy weird guy and I can imagine some people would be uncomfortable and leave prematurely. He wants you to stay a full hour and really get a good look at all of it. It's donation based so you don't have to pay to get in but you should. At the end there's a display of his super cool resin art. Which I didn't have extra money for, but was so beautiful and he was a bit pushy with me buying art to support his work. This would be so sick at night! I want to come back and see it again.

Brian Solomon | Sep 11, 2019

It is being relocated and a location hasn't been determined yet. I'm pretty sure he's doing a separate installation at a Detroit art museum while he figures out a new location in the desert.

No unfortunately its closed permanently and he moved.

BRENDA ARREOLA | Sep 10, 2021
Sean Fader | Sep 10, 2021

You do have to have an appointment. The guy is working there a lot so maybe doesnt check his phone frequently. We went last week and he has his art for sale as well. Plan to spend an hour there at least or the dude will be bummed.
