Downstream Casino Resort is bringing the magic of the holidays to life with a life-size gingerbread house, making its second debut this holiday season. This festive masterpiece, located inside the hotel lobby, is set to captivate guests of all ages with its enchanting design and mouthwatering aroma of gingerbread and holiday spices.

Crafted by Downstream’s talented pastry chefs, the gingerbread house stands 12-feet tall, and spans 10 feet wide. Every inch is meticulously adorned with edible decorations, including shimmering gumdrops, colorful candies, and hand- piped royal icing, all combining to create a display of holiday cheer.

“Creating this gingerbread house has been a labor of love and a testament to the creativity and craftsmanship of our team,” said Executive Pastry Chef, Becca Foy. “We wanted to bring something truly magical to the casino this season, and this life-size gingerbread house is a centerpiece that everyone can enjoy.”

The gingerbread house will be on display from Thursday, December 5 to Thursday, January 2. This display also offers guests a unique photo opportunity and the chance to immerse themselves in the wonder of the season.
