Our take

Santa’s Wonderland is a large Christmas park in College Station, and tubing is one of its snow features, run on Frostbite’s Mountain with real snow. Our record counts 12 lanes.

Tubing is included with park admission, so there is no separate tubing ticket. The record lists a minimum age of 3 and a minimum height of 38 inches. The park also lists snow play, snow angels and snowmen. It is an evening venue: hours are Monday to Thursday 6 to 11 PM, Friday 6 PM to midnight, Saturday 3 PM to midnight and Sunday 3 to 11 PM, from November 14, 2026 to January 3, 2027. Confirm admission prices and hours at santas-wonderland.com before you go.

With no separate ticket, you can tube between other attractions rather than book a slot. It is outdoors, so dress for the Texas evening.

Moody Gardens is about 119 miles away and has a single slide, so this park is the bigger option. JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa is about 143 miles. The night tubing guide covers evening sessions.
