The Illinois Resort Where You Can Go Ice Skating, Make Homemade S’mores, And More This Winter
If you’ve been searching for an Illinois resort for winter activities galore, such as ice skating, sledding, and s’mores making, be sure to check out Eagle Ridge Resort and Spa. Once you check in, you may just want to hibernate there for the whole winter.
Eagle Ridge Resort and Spa stretches across the bluffs above Lake Galena, just outside the eponymous town.
The whole family will enjoy horse-drawn wagon rides. The resort can arrange horseback riding with a local stable, if you prefer to work directly with the horse.
Eagle Ridge truly embraces winter – so much so that it hosts an annual winter carnival one weekend every February. For more details about the carnival and other winter events, as well as spa or resort reservations, check out Eagle Ridge Resort’s Facebook page.
As reluctant as you may be to leave the resort, you won’t regret spending some time in town, as Galena really comes alive during the winter season.
