FONTANA — Festive celebrations and lakeside charm create a picture-perfect winter getaway this month at The Abbey Resort.
Elf workshops, brunches with Santa Claus and a look at the New Year are all suggested by the recently released event calendar at the resort.
Below is an event listing for the more holiday-centric activities scheduled at The Abbey, which is located at 269 Fontana Blvd., Fontana.
Abbey Elf Workshop — Fridays & Saturdays until Christmas.
Follow Santa’s Lane to the Elf Workshop, where kids can roll into the holiday spirit with games, crafts, and seasonal activities. With new surprises each week, it’s a favorite stop for children and the young at heart. Note: Some activities may be fee-based.
Rise & Shine: Surprise Santa Visit! — Sundays between Thanksgiving and Christmas, 9–10 a.m.
Start your Sunday morning with holiday sing-alongs, balloon creations and sweet treats, then experience the big moment when Santa makes his surprise appearance at 10 a.m. in the Lobby Fireplace area.
Brunch with Santa — Sundays through Dec. 21 and Christmas Day, 9 a.m.–1 p.m.
Enjoy The Abbey’s Harborside Champagne Brunch at 240 West, where Santa himself stops by to greet guests, take photos and hear every Christmas wish. He’ll also join guests for Christmas Day Brunch. Cost $50 adults, $25 ages 4–12. Menu coming soon.
Christmas & New Year meals
The season continues with a Christmas Eve Prix Fixe Dinner, a Christmas Day Brunch and a New Year’s Eve celebration.
For the New Year’s celebration, there are two experiences — the Family “Get Your Game On” Party & Dinner and an elegant Prix Fixe Dinner at 240 West, capped by music and festivities at Waterfront. More details coming soon.
Located on the shores of Geneva Lake in Fontana, The Abbey Resort offers modern accommodations, exceptional dining, Avani Spa and a full calendar of year-round events and family-friendly activities.
