SNOW!!
We were made for it...snowboarding skiing snow tubing cross-country skiing snowshoe-ing fat-tire snow biking….and more. Plus, we have cozy inns, warm pubs, and comfy restaurants to keep you ready for more adventures!
Calling all downhill skiers, cross country skiers, snowboarders, snow tubers, snow snowshoers, and snow angel makers. Head to the Sussex Skylands for winter amusement. The area's winter star is Mountain Creek. Hit the slopes for skiing, snowboarding, snow tubing, a great après-ski scene, two lodging options, along with year-round ziplining, There's a fat tire bike circuit too. Speaking of fat tire biking - the Sussex Skylands is quickly becoming a haven for this burgeoning sport, with plenty of its trails and State Parks open to riders.
Make like the snow and stick around for a few days!
There's too much to do in a day, so hang with us awhile. Check out the lodging options, many with in-room fireplaces. There's even some winter camping! Mountain Creek has The Appalachian and Black Creek Sanctuary. Crystal Springs Resort has two properties right near the slopes as well, so if you'd like some spa pampering after your mountain runs, book an overnight at Minerals Hotel & Spa or The Grand Cascades Lodge. Both have award winning spas.
