While swimming, kayaking and picnicking are the favorite summertime activities, there are plenty of winter activities to keep you busy at Savoy. Cross country skiing and snowmobiling through the trails are a great way to experience the great outdoors even when it’s cold outside.

There are over 50 miles of wooded trails that will lead you through the natural landscape, each one more mesmerizing than the next. Tannery Falls is a must-see if you visit. This 50-foot cascading waterfall is one of the highlights of the forest and beautiful no matter what time of year you visit.
