The Royal Park Hotel Gingerbread House – Creating Christmas Masterpieces
The Royal Park Hotel in Rochester, Michigan, creates a massive gingerbread house each year that is a must-see for the holiday season. One of my favorite holiday traditions is to photograph the Royal Park Hotel Gingerbread House creation every holiday. It is always a treat to walk into this luxury hotel and see what they have created for the holidays, and they never disappoint!
