| Treetops Sylvan Resort, in the heart of Northern Michigan's snowbelt,
is a perfect family getaway. Treetops is located just outside the Alpine
Village of Gaylord. It receives an annual snowfall of 175 inches, which provides
the ideal setting for fantastic Alpine and Nordic skiing. Nineteen downhill
runs wind their way through the majestic hardwood forest that covers the 400-acre
winter park. Snowboarders are welcome at Treetops. They are allowed on the entire
ski area and have a half-pipe for their own private use. Nordic enthusiasts
will find the "Midwest's best terrain" for cross-country skiing. The
20 km of groomed and tracked trails are all clearly marked and range in difficulty
from beginner to expert.
Treetops also offers snowtubing. The tubing ride is separate
from the ski area and is available for a "ride on the wild side."
The unique tubing lift attaches to the tube by a tether and tows you and the
tube to the top of the hill for another run. While the snow at Treetops is usually
abundant, state of the art snowmaking and grooming equipment can pile up the
snow and have it groomed into fresh blankets of snow in hours. The award-winning
state licensed Child Development Center is designed for fun and play for children
in a cheerful and caring environment, which allows freedom for Mom and Dad.
Treetops offers an array of resort activities designed for the whole family
to enjoy. Indoor and outdoor pools, fitness center, saunas, sleigh rides and
the newly established snowshoe adventures just to name a few. Accommodations
are designed with comfort in mind. Rooms feature coffee makers, wet bar, microwaves,
refrigerators and balconies. |
