Summer Family Special ~ thru July, '25

 

While we usually promote Evins Mill as a place for adults, business groups and special events, the fact is it's a pretty cool place for kids too. And from now until the end of July as part of our Summer Family Special, it is also complimentary for high school age children and younger on any Enchanted Night.

For families remaining close to home this summer but looking for local adventure, Evins Mill features a variety of family-friendly activities, including...

• self-guided hikes to the overlooks and base of Carmac Falls
• lawn games, including corn hole, ring toss, horse shoes & ladder golf
• game hall, including billiards, ping pong, darts, and Foosball
• a wide variety of board games and puzzles
• streaming service for after-dinner in-room entertainment

Were that not enough, some nearby family-friendly attractions include...

• Goat Petting & Tours at Harmony Lane Goat Farm
• Pottery Making Workshops at Cosmic Clay Studio
• Exploring Caves at Cumberland Caverns

In addition, families will enjoy full meal service - from appetizers & dinner, followed by s'mores around a fire pit, through a full breakfast & sack lunch the following day. As always, our chefs will prepare kid-friendly dinners and for special dietary restrictions.

The Summer Family Special includes...

• one nights' lodging in a Mountain Laurel room w/ loft (multiple night stays are welcome!)
• appetizers & dinner for two adults 
• kid-friendly dinner for up to three children
• s'mores around our fire pit after dinner
• full breakfast and hearty sack lunch for up to five guests
• non-alcoholic beverages
• access to the resort's 40-acre property and all the activities thereon

...and is available for a family of up to five on any Enchanted Night for the same price as for an adult couple - $445 to $495 per night depending on the room.
