Boyne Mountain

If you want to get your feet wet this spring break, but would rather not spend a day traveling to warmer climes, then Boyne Mountain’s Avalanche Bay offers a convenient spring break solution.  Avalanche Bay, Michigan’s largest indoor waterpark, features a maze of serpentine water slides, as well as a zipline, video arcade, and their Rip Zone—a simulated wave perfect for surfing or boogie boarding.  And new this year: the Big Couloir, a G-force machine that shoots its riders at a maximum velocity of 38 feet per second. But the best part yet is the savings—book Boyne’s Spring Break Waterpark Package and save up to 35-40%.

The Spring Break Waterpark Package for Four Includes:

  • Unlimited access to Avalanche Bay starting at 4pm on the day of arrival
  • Complimentary family activities plus contests and entertainment
  • Overnight accommodations at Boyne Mountain Resort
  • Discounted breakfast rates
