Spud-tacular Snowshoe Lunch!

GAYLORD, MICHIGAN – Treetops Resort, ‘Michigan’s Most Spectacular Winter Playground’ is once again embracing the upcoming winter season with a brand new family adventure named Spud-tacular Snowshoe Lunch. And for good reason.  The family snowshoe lunch is filled with potato foodie fun and is hosted along the historic Potato Railroad on the Treetops property, aptly named because it was “in-fact” once a railroad grade hauling potatoes to neighboring counties.

The Guided snowshoe hike along the famous Potato Railroad will feature multiple food stations featuring potato dishes accompanied by non-alcoholic beverages.  Each guest will leave with a bundle of information on the history of the railroad and potato industry, a full belly, as well as a vintage Mr. Potato Head souvenir to take home. Two waves each limited to 40 people will take off from the Jones Pro Shop at 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.

Guests will enjoy the main campus trail adventure – one that is fit for everyone to enjoy – winter novice to expert.  This is a family friendly event but also perfect for a date day for couples or friends and it’s priced so reasonably at $30 per adult, and $25 for kids 4 to 12 years old, while 3 years and under are free.

The ’Spud-Tacular’ lunch menu is family friendly and features THREE SPUD STOPS:

Station 1– Hot chocolate and water at a beautiful lookout adjacent to our Extreme Tubing Hill allowing you to check out what you might want to do later in the day.

Station 2– Potato Chips and Grilled Cheese made on potato bread, N/A Beverages- Bottle Water and Hot Chocolate

Station 3– Potato Gnocchi and Cheese made with a four-cheese blend, Ham and Leek Potato Soup, N/A Beverages- Bottle Water and Hot Chocolate

Final stop at  the Jones Pro Shop where everyone will take away Lay’s Potato chips and a vintage Mr. Potato head.

Snowshoe rentals are available for just $5 per person.
