Every Christmas
Huckleberry Hound,
Snagglepuss,
Augie Doggie and Doggie Daddy spend the holiday at the Jellystone Lodge right next door to Jellystone Park and they're upset that
Yogi Bear and
Boo-Boo Bear have to hibernate during the holiday, but Ranger Smith who carpools everyone to the lodge tells them that they had a lot of trouble the Christmas before. When they got to the lodge they meet lodge manager Mr. Dingwell who tells them that because of what happened the year before, this could be the last Christmas they'll have at the lodge because the town is planning to build a freeway where the lodge is unless Mrs. Sophie Throckmorton who owns the lodge sells it to the town. Also business at the lodge is going downhill with other regular guests not returning for the holiday season; however if Mrs. Throckmorton (who is bringing her spoiled nephew Snively along with her) can enjoy the stay without any mischief, then she'll remain owner of the lodge. Yogi and Boo Boo are put to work as employees of the lodge when the music wakes them up and they enter the lodge through the kitchen where Otto works. Yogi has to escape when Ranger Smith wants to take him back home, and he does this on the snowplow with which he saves Mrs. Throckmorton on the road from an avalanche caused by Herman the Hermit who hates Christmas. Later, Yogi is working as a
bellhop, where he is tasked by Ranger Smith to stay on Mrs. Throckmorton's good side. Though Snively tries to embarrass Yogi with his pranks, Yogi comes out on top. In another attempt to degrade Yogi, Snively tricks him into entering a figure skating contest, in which Snively is also a participant. Although Snively earns high marks, Mrs. Throckmorton covertly wishes Snively would lose in order to tame his poor attitude. Yogi, the last contestant, clumsily manages to impress the judges well enough to earn the highest marks and win. Snively is a sore loser and enraged that Yogi beat him at his own game, but his aunt Sophie says that Yogi won fair and square and losing is a lesson of life. Following different situations caused by Herman that Yogi saved her from, Mrs. Throckmorton has Mr. Dingwell promote Yogi to chief of security.
Cindy Bear also awakens from her
hibernation, to help Yogi out (due to her love and concern for him). Fed up with Snively's antics, Yogi retaliates during an
ice fishing contest, with Mrs. Throckmorton agreeing that he needed to be taught a lesson. Furious, Snively runs away and meets up with Herman, and the two team up to ruin Christmas. It was revealed that Herman was the one who caused the trouble at the lodge the previous Christmas. However, Yogi manages to thwart them every time, albeit unknowingly. Eventually, Herman and Snively are forgiven, invited to the Christmas celebrations and they have a profound change of heart at such generosity of spirit. Then in the midst of the festivities,
Santa Claus plummets down the chimney. Santa admits that there were times when Yogi was not very good by way of stealing food from parkgoers, but also sees Yogi did much good. Santa gives Yogi his very own picnic basket full of food. Yogi, however, falls asleep, due to his natural instincts of hibernation. Santa then says that Yogi and Boo Boo can have the basket when they wake up in the spring. With that, the partiers return Yogi, Boo Boo and Cindy to their caves for the rest of their hibernation. ==Cast==
