Some notes about minimum rig requirements and wheeling here: Our minimum rig requirements are not a SUGGESTION in order for you to more easily run the trails without rig damage, they are MANDATORY minimums…running these trails with only the minimum equipment will be EXTREMELY difficult. All of our trails carry a strong possibility of body damage, and the less equipped your rig is, the higher the probability for damage is. We strongly recommend competition compound tires for running our red trails…it is not uncommon for some rigs on comp compound tires to pull cable on some of the black trails, and the red trails are likely to have you pulling cable even on comp compound tires. The red trails here will challenge even the most extreme buggies on comp compound tires…trying them on DOT tires will have you very frustrated and challenged to say the least, and likely broken. We have ZERO tolerance for trailblazing/braiding/making new go-arounds…this place is rugged, this is your fair warning.

Camping: We have both shady treed campsites and grassy sites circling our large field. Most sites will work for groups of campers, with plenty of room for RV’s. We do have a limited number of electric/water sites available. These are first-come, first-serve. However, one of these group sites has electric/water available and will fit 3 campers or motor homes in addition to tents.
Please note in the registration comment field if you have a large group and are interested in that.

We do have a rustic bathhouse with flushing toilets and showers. An RV pump-out station is available for guests. Ice and firewood are available for sale on site.

Pets: Friendly dogs are more than welcome, please keep them on a leash and clean up after them…bags for this are available in both the men’s and women’s rooms.

Kids: Children are welcome. There is no charge for children 15 and under.
