Our take

Hanson Hills Recreation Area in Grayling offers family-friendly tubing served by a lift, and our record lists ages 4 and up. It also runs skiing and snowboarding, so the tubing hill shares a property with the ski slopes.

Booking is the thing to plan around. Reservations are required and made online, and full payment is due at booking. The park allows a refund if you cancel at least 24 hours ahead, so watch the forecast the day before. Our record lists no night tubing, no price, no session length and no height minimum, and we could not verify more on the official page, so check the booking calendar for the actual times and cost before you commit.

Because reservations gate every visit, walk-up plans do not work here. If you are traveling with several families, book everyone in the same slot and confirm that the party limit allows it.

Hanson Hills sits between two better-known Gaylord options. Otsego Resort Tubing is about 24 miles straight-line and Treetops Resort Extreme Tubing is also about 24 miles. Our tubing reservations and sessions guide explains how timed slots work.
