Mt. Holiday
No. 3 of Family-friendly Attractions in Michigan

Mt. Holiday

4.3

Mt. Holiday is one of the few mountain sports centers open all year round in the Great Lakes region. Its core winter activity is family skiing instruction. There are many different types of ski trails to choose from, which are both safe and fun. For tourists who do not ski, Mt. Holiday provides snow tubing trails, which are suitable for the whole family to experience together. In addition, the mountaintop cabin provides a warm resting environment and a variety of dining options, where visitors can enjoy hot drinks and light meals to relax. In summer, the venue is transformed into a hiking and mountain biking base, and many forest trails retain their original landforms, which are suitable for parent-child nature observation. Mt. Holiday offers a wealth of activity options. You can enjoy the fun of skiing in winter and natural adventures in summer. It is an ideal place for a day trip or a short vacation.
