The Homestead - Michigan
Discover a winter resort experience high above Lake Michigan. Stroll the boardwalks. Hike the beach. Snowshoe the woods. Ski and snowboard with a view of Lake Michigan. Savor fine dining. Travel to nearby Sleeping Bear Dunes. Explore shops, galleries, museums and historical sites. Ski the way it was meant to be.
Discover exceptional skiing and boarding on Bay Mountain where the snow is groomed to perfection. Whether it is a long cruise down Pearly Everlasting, a mogul run down Star Thistle, or a tour of the glade run or terrain park, you will find the runs that are just right for you. And the Homestead limits ticket sales so you spend more time on the slopes.
