Tubing pricing separate from ski/snowboard tickets; lift tickets $18-32
Rough cost for a family of four: about $72.00 at the posted starting rate, before rentals, food, or parking. Many parks sell tubing by the hour or by a fixed session rather than a full-day pass — check the note above for exactly what that price buys.
Coffee Mill Ski & Snowboard Resort in Wabasha is mainly a ski hill, with 14 runs, 2 chairlifts, a terrain park and a 425-foot vertical drop. Tubing is the add-on: 3 lanes served by a tow rope, in an area the resort added recently.
The useful detail for planning is snowmaking, which the record puts at about 90% coverage, so surface conditions rely less on natural snowfall. The resort prices tubing separately from ski and snowboard tickets. Our record shows lift tickets at $18-32 but no specific tubing price, so do not assume the low end applies to tubing, and check the resort’s site first. Hours, session length, age and height rules, and reservations are not listed in the record, and the resort’s phone is 651-565-2777.
With a tow rope, waterproof gloves matter because you hold on for the ride up.
Steeplechase Ski Hill is about 10 miles away and lists night tubing and published session prices, so compare the two if you want an evening slot. Our ski resort vs tubing park guide covers the trade-offs.

We track 17 tubing hills in Minnesota. At $18 a head this one sits above the state median of $17, undercutting 2 of the 10 paid parks we track here.
It runs 3 lanes against a state average of about 7, so it is smaller than most of its neighbours, which can mean longer waits when it is busy.
One caveat worth repeating: this park had not published its current-season dates when we last checked, while 13 of the 17 parks we track in Minnesota had. Treat any date you see elsewhere as a prior season's until the park confirms it.
