If you will be in Michigan, you should definitely visit  Nub’s Nob Ski Resort. Nub’s Nob has what is  considered to be the Midwest’s best snow, and the  resort has a reputation for being a family friendly  mountain. Generations of families have brought their  children here for their very first ski run.

The mountain layout is fairly simple with an elevation  of 1338 feet and a vertical drop of 427 feet. There are  43 trails serviced by eight chair lifts. Boasting one of  the best skiing and snowboarding schools in the  country, both private and group lessons are available.  If you are brand new to the sport, you can even learn  to ski free, and take advantage of Nub’s Cubs  Childcare Center while you learn.

Don’t make the mistake of thinking that intermediate  or expert skiers won’t find any challenges waiting for  them at Nub’s Nob! The terrain is varied, and you will = find challenges. Night Skiing is also available. The   Ski School offers training programs for advanced  skiers who are interested in racing, and many racing  events are held at the resort. You can signup for race
 eagues at the resort, and many league events are  planned each season.

Equipment rental is available, and there is a General  Store right inside the lodge, where you can purchase  gloves, hats, and neck warmers among a variety of  other items. You should also visit the technology  center to have your ski’s tuned or repaired.

You won’t go hungry either! Nub’s Nob Cafeteria is  open for breakfast and lunch, and if you brought your
own lunch, you can eat in the ‘brown bag’ room.  Nub’s Winter Garden serves grilled burgers when the  weather allows. Pintail Peak Warming Hut is located  at the top of the Black Lift. Here, you can enjoy  amazing views while enjoying home made soups and  sandwiches.

Nub’s Nob is the place to go if you want to have a  great family ski vacation – or if you are already an
expert skier interested in racing and skill events.  There is plenty to do and see. In fact, you may find  that you have a problem deciding which activity to  participate in first! Don’t worry about missing  anything, though – if you want to ski now and board  later, you can do that. Most events are planned for  the weekends, so arrange your schedule so that you  are able to attend or participate in the planned events.
