In the 1970s...as 'LHOTP' came out....I noted some article in the paper at the time, which brought up two issues, and for all these years....it's stuck on my mind.
First....Walnut Grove is in Minnesota, and the landscape simply didn't fit for the Hollywood back-lot that was used for the show.
Second....the real location has WINTER conditions for about five month out of the year. I'm not talking about inch or two of snow.
These two things always stuck out in my mind.....so I saw the show as Little House in California.
From the previews of the new series? I'd say it's set for the real Walnut Grove.
Maybe it's better in some way.
