Our take

License to Chill Snow Island is the snow tubing area at Margaritaville at Lanier Islands in Buford, Georgia. The resort’s homepage lists it as a winter activity alongside a visit with Santa and the Elves at Legacy Lodge and a drive through the Magical Nights of Lights.

That is nearly everything the official page says. It doesn’t publish dates, prices, session times, age or height rules, or how reservations work, and our record has no lane count, lift type or night sessions either. Instead of guessing, treat this as a park you confirm by phone: Lanier Islands lists 770-945-8787.

Ask a few specific questions when you call. Find out which weekends are open, how long a session lasts, what the minimum age or height is, whether tickets must be bought in advance, and whether tubes are provided. Also ask how the snow is handled, since conditions in Georgia depend on the resort’s setup and weather.

For context on tubing in warmer states, read snow tubing in the South and see southern-state parks.

The nearest parks in our data are far away: Ober Gatlinburg is about 110 miles from Buford.

Best time to go
