Beautiful Cross Country Skiing | Michigan
It’s always sad to see golf season go, but the start of ski season offers new opportunities for excitement and outdoor fun. Skiing northern Michigan is one of the most beautiful ways to see winter scenery, and it’s a great way to get some exercise as well. Garland Lodge & Golf Resort is known for our gorgeous golf courses and unparalleled accommodations and amenities. But did you know that we also own more than 20 kilometers of cross country skiing trails? We love the snow too much to stay closed all winter long! So come experience one of the most exceptional ski resorts in Michigan this winter.
XC Skiing Northern Michigan
Garland Lodge carefully grooms over 20 kilometers of cross country skiing trails from December through February, making us one of the best ski resorts in Michigan. We want everyone to experience the glittering, diamond-like snow unique to northern Michigan. Our seasonal average for snowfall is 141.4 inches! Because we own the trails around our resort, they are clean and private, which means you have open trails to move as quickly or as slowly as you please. You won’t find any trash along the way. Instead, you will find plenty of beautiful photo opportunities in the serene, enchanted winter forest. It’s the most outstanding cross country skiing Michigan has to offer.Child cross country skiing in Michigan
