About this adventure

Each winter, Blake's Orchard & Cider Mill in Armada transforms its 1,000-acre fruit farm into a charming country Winter Wonderland. The centerpiece is an open-air 2,000-square-foot synthetic ice rink surrounded by rustic cedar split-rail fences and festive string lighting, offering smooth gliding regardless of fluctuating winter temperatures. After a 50-minute skating session, families can warm up inside the historic Cider Mill tasting room with fresh, hot spiced cider and famous cinnamon sugar doughnuts. Reservable heated outdoor igloos offer cozy private dining with family shareable platters, and weekend evenings feature crackling open-air bonfires with s'mores kits available at the farm market.
