Welcome to Magical

Tucked away on only one map you’ll find, the town of Magical defies geography and definition: mountains shadow the northwest corner, the sea glitters to the south, and somewhere in between are fields of wild damask, dense old-growth forests, and plenty of beautiful properties ready for ownership.

Learn more about each neighborhood:

  • The grand entrance to Magical. Each house in Mystical Heights remains invisible until it wants to be seen. The neighborhood offers sweeping views of the town and is the perfect location for those with esoteric practices.

  • Magical’s Main Street business district is a delightful patchwork of shops and  eateries featuring treasures from each of the neighborhoods. Centrally located and easy to visit on your way in or out of town.

  • Enjoy treed lots and plenty of shade in The Woodlands. Homes here range from small cabins to sprawling private estates. Nature can be found all around: The Woodlands boasts the most species of flora and fauna per square inch in all of Magical and a large network of hiking trails.


  • The Lake District is a private community nestled within The Woodlands. A public beach can be found off of Lakewood Drive, and access to the Lily Pond Trail from the West 2nd Ave parking lot. (Residents ask that guests stay on publicly marked trails only.) All homes built here include lake frontage.

    Larger-scale public events include the Summer Water Carnival and the Winter Toboggan Slide.

    Neighborhood maintained by the Magical Lake District Association. Each property is subject to annual dues.

  • Magical’s Original Townsite. Here you’ll find some of the oldest buildings in Magical. A number of homes still have their rooftop mining ladders attached. While a section of this neighborhood has been classified as a “true ghost town”, people still own and maintain homes here. Areas can be quite mountainous and rural. Many residents rely on horses for transportation. 

    Old Town is the center for the city government and post office. 

  • Winter year round. Very sparsely populated with a small amount of seasonal cabins. There are a small number of vendors that host a Holiday Market (open daily). 

    Driving in Winter Land is not recommended. Please ensure you have four wheel drive, or park in the lot and travel by sleigh. 

    The Ice Bridge was built through Winter Land in the 1960s in an attempt to connect Old Town to New City Center. This was deemed a large failure of the city commission, as the bridge is continuously encased in ice and impassable.

  • New City Center was built in the 1960s to resemble great European cities. You can find replica streets from Paris, Rome, London, Barcelona, Lisbon- you name it. There are a number of fine dining restaurants here, cultural attractions, nightlife, and more.

    Housing here consists mostly of walkup city apartments.

  • As the magic of Magical became more well-known, population began to boom and more housing was needed. The Story Book neighborhood was Magical’s first planned development and happened in three phases (starting in the 1930s and ending in the 1950s). Here you will find moderate scale housing, plenty of gardens, and a majority of Magical’s schools. Watch out for a dragon or two roaming the streets. Story Book characters tend to come to life here.

  • Adorable cottages, a never-ending boardwalk, and plenty of saltwater taffy for all. The Sea Shore is the perfect neighborhood for anyone wanting the health benefits of fresh ocean air.

    Travel towards the southern border where the neighborhood meets Mystical Heights and you might catch sight of a mermaid or two. Or, book a stay at The Tudor Mermaid, Magical’s underwater hotel, for guaranteed mermaid interactions.

  • With only two ferries a day (6am and 6pm), Flower Island is not a large tourist attraction. Most people who live here work on the island at The Flower Farm & Apiary.
