Awesome is the word to describe the trail conditions. We had two different groups of riders staying with us that when I asked them how their ride and the trails were both said "Awesome!".

Groomers are keeping the trails in good condition. There haven’t been that many riders during the week. We got four inches of new snow yesterday. It just seems to get better and better.

We are booked for the weekend. Rooms available for tonight and two rooms for Thursday evening are still open. This has been a good year for riding. Everyone is getting a chance to get out and enjoy their sleds.

We hope to see you before the season is over. If you are lucky enough to be able to make it possible to come up during the week, I strongly suggest you do! During the week you can enjoy your ride so much more without all the traffic. The trails hold up well thru the entire day.

This is the time to ride! Groomer has been out and running regularly since yesterday. The trails have an ice base with snow on top. Very few riders up during the week. Everyone that has been out has enjoyed their rides.

Ray’s Retreat Country Inn – Jan. 26

Weather forecast is for a few inches of fresh snow today, and it is snowing now. Temps stay cold thru the week. Enjoy this winter’s snow and trails. To the east and south of us the snow gets thin. No shortage of snow on Gaylord trails, as well as those to the west and north.

We are booked for this weekend and next. Still rooms left thru the week. I hope you can get away and enjoy winter fun in Northern Michigan
