Kingston holiday lights shine bright back to video.

The map includes more than 110 homes beautifully decorated with holiday lights.

We have homes in the east end, downtown, midtown, in the Bayridge area, and the west end. The homes also stretch into Amherstview and Odessa as well as north of Highway 401 into the Frontenac region. The most northerly homes are located in Sydenham and Harrowsmith.

When choosing a home to highlight, we look for great care and creativity. Live in an apartment? We have those included, too! Some have lights that are all the same colour, others are a rainbow. We’ve seen hundreds of inflatables — some as tall as the houses they’re in front of — many teams of reindeer, and, of course, the big guy in red is a common sight.

Most of the photos have been gathered by Whig-Standard journalists, but a number have been submitted by readers and we are thrilled. Please continue to send those in! Be sure to include both a photo and the address in an email to [email protected] .

Kitsap Peninsula Lights the Night

holiday lights tour kingston

Nothing lifts the spirits more on an inky black winter’s night, than light. Pure. Brilliant. Shimmering like the stars.

Kingston Cove flowers

And this month, the Kitsap Peninsula has two special displays that radiate the joy of the season.

Kingston Cove lighthouse

At the Port of Kingston, employees and a group of volunteers began planning the array in March.

Kingston Cove sea turtle

It took about six weeks and 400,000 lights to create the exuberant waterfront show at Mike Wallace Park next to the Kingston Ferry dock.

Kingston Cove floral close-up

The twinkling works of art include birds, butterflies, flowers and a sea serpent. A 33-foot tall tree anchors the display.

Near Poulsbo, retired architect and model builder Ron Comin has created a 600-foot-long enchanted trail at his rural home.

Christmas on Big Valley

There’s a 1/25th scale garden railroad,

Big Valley RR

a North Pole village complete with Santa’s workshop

and glittering woodland scenes.

Big Valley woodland

Starting in September, Ron placed about 72,000 lights by hand for an expected 1,500-2,000 visitors.

Big Valley delights kids

“The kids get all excited,” he said. “I do it for the kids.”

Big Valley kids 2

Like the holidays, the magical displays will be gone before you know it. Visit our website now to plan a light-filled family getaway before the exhibits go dark for the year. Here are lodging ideas and more family-friendly things to see and do  on the Kitsap Peninsula.
