With the recent spate of glorious sunshine, it’s hard to envision what’s coming, weather-wise, in our not-too-distant future.
But anyone who has spent any time at all in Michigan knows that winter is lurking just beyond all this beautiful fall foliage, ready to unleash gray skies, gloomy days and a season’s worth of white stuff almost before you can say anti-freeze.
One way to replace winter dread with anticipation is to plan ahead and take advantage of this offer from Crystal Mountain Resort in Thompsonville, one of the state’s leading winter playgrounds: travelers who book three nights by Nov. 15 for any time this winter (except the week between Christmas and New Year’s and Feb. 17-19) will receive a $100 resort credit good for ski or snowboard rentals or lessons, lift tickets, spa treatments, kids’ programs and other “Winter Fun” activities.
The special applies to lodging-only as well as standard ski, spa or romance packages.
