The Best Spring Break Destinations For Families

Snowmass Village, Colorado

Wendy Altschuler 

Snowmass Resort is located just outside of the premier ski town of Aspen, and even though Aspen has a ritzy reputation, Snowmass is 100 percent family-friendly.

 

The obvious activity is winter sports like skiing or snowboarding, and the varying levels of slopes are perfect for new skiers or future Olympians. But there's also plenty to keep kids entertained off the mountain, as well. The Collective is the apres-ski area at the base of the mountain with restaurants and a game lounge to relax between runs.

 

Throughout March and April, Snowmass Village hosts all kinds of events catering to all age groups, such as disco parties on the ice at the Collective ice rink. Complete the trip by staying at the Limelight Hotel Snowmass where you'll enjoy great amenities like complimentary breakfast, a Kids Room, climbing wall, outdoor hot tubs, year-round shuttle service, and ice skating.

Sheboygan, Wisconsin

Blue Harbor Resort

Located on Lake Michigan's rugged shoreline at the mouth of the Sheboygan River sits one of the best family-friendly destinations in the Midwest. Visitors may be surprised to learn that Sheboygan is revered for lake surfing (especially in the winter), bratwurst, furniture making, and dairy.

 

Little kids will love exploring the Above & Beyond Children's Museum while the big kids and teens are checking out the John Michael Kohler Arts Center and video game mecca Game On.

 

Don't miss dining at Harry's Prohibition Bistro, a comfy crowd pleaser for families that love wood-fired pizzas, delicious cheese trays, black mussels, and rich pastas. Black Pig is another quality option for comfort food and casual dining, which works well for families.

 

Stay at Blue Harbor Resort, which not only has a lovely interior design but also caters to youngsters with their indoor waterpark, kid-friendly dining options, and large suites.
