Ski Free Weekend in Gaylord, December 11-13, 2020
GAYLORD, MICHIGAN – The Gaylord Area Convention & Tourism Bureau, along with area
hotels, vacation rentals and Treetops Resort, welcome winter with FREE SKIING Friday,
Saturday and Sunday, December 11-13, 2020!

Said to be the most family friendly resort in Michigan, Treetops is excited to make winter fun
free! Early season getaways include free skiing with your lodging at participating Gaylord area
properties. The Ski Free packages start at just $42 per person/per room at Gaylord area
properties, and if you want to stay right where all the action is, just $131.59 per room, per night
at Treetops Resort (inclusive of taxes - max of 2 free tickets per room).

Each overnight guest will receive a free lift ticket voucher, valid for one day of skiing. Free
skiing begins on Friday, December 11th at 4:00 p.m. and continues throughout the day on both
Saturday and Sunday.

Whether you’re snowboarding or skiing, the lift ticket is free! “This is a great weekend to learn
to ski, too,” said Paul Beachnau, Gaylord Area Tourism Bureau Executive Director. Treetops
Resort will be offering a free Learn to Ski Clinic on Saturday, December 12th.

“An easy way to start the ski season is through a free ski clinic. Whether you’re trying the sport
for the first time, or a seasoned skier or boarder, the Ski Free weekend makes for a great
getaway,” Beachnau went on to say.

Many area properties are excited to be a part of Gaylord’s Ski Free weekend. A special treat
after a winter day is relaxing at your very own cabin, condo or house, and guests will appreciate
the attention to every detail and superior hospitality provided by Pine-Cone Vacations. If you
prefer the hotel experience, our two newest properties, the Holiday Inn Express and the Fairfield
Inn & Suites will both be taking part in Ski Free Weekend.

“Some other great lodging options include the Baymont Inn and Suites, Hampton Inn and the
American Alpine Lodge. For a quaint and cozy room away from the hustle and bustle of town,
try the Waters Inn, located in nearby Waters just south of Gaylord,” Beachnau shared.

Treetops Resort is known as Northern Michigan’s Winter Playground with 23 downhill slopes,
miles of cross-country trails and expansive terrain parks. While you’re visiting, take advantage
of the award-winning Children’s Center, full-service spa, heated indoor pools and hot tubs and a
variety of dining and accommodation options. Later in the season, guests can experience extreme  tubing, dog sledding and sleigh rides. Treetops is perfect for all ages, from the very youngest of skiers to the expert boarder and everyone in between.

The Gaylord Tourism Bureau Welcomes You

Located in the exact center of northern Michigan on the 45th parallel, the Gaylord area is a
recreation seeker’s paradise! Visitors will want to experience all Gaylord has to offer this winter
season, including scenic snowshoe and cross country trails, exciting downhill and tubing runs, fat
tire biking, ice fishing one of our pristine lakes and snowmobiling on the Midwest’s most
convenient trail system, the North Central State Trail, which takes enthusiasts from Gaylord to
Mackinaw City.
