Busco Beach ATV Park & Campground
Saturday, December 23, 2023
| Other Names | Busco Beach |
| Last Known Status | Open |
This ATV park is situated near a lake that has a nice sandy beach along the outer perimeter. The park is open daily, year-round and features a wide variety of terrain for all skill levels and riding styles, which are among the many things to like about this park.
The property offers numerous deep-water crossings (snorkel recommended), mud, sand pits, hill climbs and some deep woods trails that offer a good mix of hard packed and muddy sections. There is even a motocross track plus a beginners track for newbies.
Primitive camping is permitted near the lake and full RV hookups are available. There is a snack shop, air station, hot showers and ATV rentals. Bagged ice and firewood is available for purchase at the main office.
Holiday events, cookouts and music concerts are among the frequent entertainment events offered here. Jeeps and 4x4s are not allowed on the trails, but jet skis and fishing are permitted on the lake.
