It has ski and snowboard lessons, tube carousels, moving carpets, mini tubing and a volcano that can be climbed and played on. There is also a mini snowmobiling course with pint-sized snowmobiles for kids ages 6 to 12. The best part is that all the gear is provided: rental skis and snowboards, boots, and helmets. The kid-friendly coaches will teach kids how to stop, turn, and be safe on the slopes.

Soda Springs is located 10 miles west of Truckee, CA, and 45 miles west of Reno, NV, on Interstate 80, making it the closest family-focused resort to Sacramento.
