Whether you’re ready or not, Christmas is just around the corner. It’s time to finish last minute Christmas shopping and prepare yourself to spend some quality time with your family. Luckily for you, Chestnut Mountain Resort in Galena, Illinois is here to help! Chestnut Mountain is the perfect place to bring your family for a few days. Enjoy the sights and sounds of the holiday season while racing down the mountain on your skis or snowboard. Here are a few reasons why we think you should spend your holidays with us at Chestnut.
Family Vacation
The holidays can get a little hectic, so planning a family getaway becomes a necessity. Whether you spend a weekend or a full week with us, there’s something for everyone! Start your morning off right by learning how to ski or snowboard from one of our experienced instructors. Then, test your skills in the afternoon by hitting one of our 19 runs. Recharge your energy in the evening by booking a suite in the slopeside lodge and warm up in our sauna or jacuzzi. We have all of the amenities you expect in a resort destination, but our Midwestern roots and small town charm keep people coming back for more.
Dining
The slopes are officially open at Chestnut Mountain Resort, as are additional dining options. Mountain Top Café, which opened on December 9th, is perfect for those on the go. You can grab a quick cup of chili, while making the most of your time on the slopes. Are you looking for more of a “wine and dine” atmosphere? Step inside The Summit or Sunset Grille! Enjoy one of our craft beers or fine wines by the warm fireplace before you enjoy a meal with your family and reminisce about your day on the mountain. With three dining options available, we have something for every palate.
Book a Group
After you’ve spent quality time with your family, spend some time during your break with friends at our resort. Booking a group (15 or more people) means that everyone in your party will receive a deeper discount on lift tickets and rental equipment. Additionally, groups who choose to rent skis and snowboards will receive a free group lesson. Whether you’re a first timer or already breezing through the blues, Chestnut professional instructors will you help you get the most out of your time here. Affordable rates on group accommodations and lunch tickets are also available. Check out our website to see what group offerings are available!
Gift Certificates
Struggling to find the perfect gift for the skiing phenom in your life? Push your struggles aside and visit Chestnut Mountain Resort for your one stop shopping. We sell everything you need to be properly outfitted this winter season. Can’t decide which jacket your loved one would prefer? Purchase a gift certificate and let them decide for themselves. Gift certificates can be used towards anything on the mountain. From the rental shop to The Summit, your loved ones will be able to find something they enjoy here.
