Nothing says winter wonderland quite like a horse-drawn sleigh ride through the snow-covered countryside. Gaylord has two fantastic options for sleigh rides, and they’re perfect for a cozy date night, a fun family outing or just an excuse to bundle up and enjoy the season!

Cook Family Farm

Cook Family Farm’s horse-drawn sleigh glides through scenic trails, offering a peaceful ride through the wintry woods. The sound of hooves crunching through the snow, the crisp air on your cheeks and the peacefulness of the forest create a truly magical experience. After your ride, warm up inside with a cup of hot cocoa, and be sure to check out their selection of farm-fresh goodies. It’s the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation – and a great way to experience a slice of farm life in winter!

Treetops Resort

Treetops Resort also offers scenic sleigh rides, giving you the chance to soak in stunning winter views while snuggled under a warm blanket. Glide through their rolling, snow-covered property and take in the breathtaking beauty of northern Michigan’s winter landscape. It’s the kind of quiet, picturesque ride that makes you want to pause and just take it all in.

Looking for an extra special evening? Treetops hosts a Valentine’s Sleigh Ride Dinner, a one-night-only event featuring a cozy ride followed by an incredible meal. It’s a romantic, one-of-a-kind way to celebrate the season with someone special.

No matter which sleigh ride you choose, you’re in for a magical winter adventure. So, bundle up, grab your loved ones and make some unforgettable memories in the snow!

Sleigh rides are by reservation only. Give Cook Family Farm or Treetops Resort a call to book your ride through our beautiful winter wonderland.
