Atlanta Winter Guide

Escape to Margaritaville’s Snow Island this holiday season

Nov 8, 2021

Beginning this weekend, experience the holidays lakeside at Margaritaville’s Snow Island.

Snow tubing on Parrot Mountain — one of North America’s longest and steepest snow rides — ice skating on Frosty’s Ice Rink, polar mini-golf, s’mores by the fire pit, carnival rides and more are available to keep guests entertained for the entire afternoon or evening. And those over 21 can unwind with drinks at the Tipsy Snowman to get into a wintry vacation state of mind.

There are many ways to experience all Snow Island has to offer; ticket options include a Winter Chill Season Pass, Ultimate Winter Chill Season Pass and daily admission.

The Winter Chill Season Pass is on sale until Nov. 11 for $74.99, and after Nov. 11 will be $99.99. It includes an unlimited ride pass, resort entry and parking, bring-a-friend 50%-off Snow Island Pass and partner lodging discount. The Ultimate Winter Chill Season Pass, on sale for $99.99 until Nov. 11, includes additional access to Lakeside Lights Spectacular and a Santa photo voucher.
