Winter Fun for Everyone

Nine ways to stay busy over holiday break
Dec. 21, 2024

Need to keep a full house busy this holiday season? Here are a few of our favorite pastimes for all ages. Ski with Santa on Christmas Eve at Crystal Mountain. Drive through the holiday light display at the 20th annual Sparkle in the Park in Bear Lake. Sign up for winter sleigh rides and guided snowshoe hikes at Gaylord’s Treetops Resort (running Dec. 26-30 and Dec. 27-28 respectively). Dance the night away with dueling pianos at Gypsy Distillery in Petoskey (Dec. 26) or a selection of local performers on the stage at Pond Hill Farm in Harbor Springs (Dec. 26-31). Take a lantern-lit hike along the Cadillac Heritage Trail on winter Fridays starting Jan. 3. Or stay cozy inside with ARTventure, the annual winter member exhibition at Oliver Art Center in Frankfort and Christmas in the Village Arts Building with the Northport Arts Association.
