| Last Known Status | Closed |
This offroad park at one time was open to all vehicle types but is now closed and no longer open for riding or camping. The property offered about 45 miles of trails on 500 acres, two lakes stocked for fishing, a kids playground, basketball court and baseball field, go-kart track, dirt oval track and miles of hiking and mountain bike trails.
The park was open for business beginning Friday at 6pm until Sunday at 6pm. The park even had a campground which features eight RV hookup sites, five bunkhouses, six pavilions and eleven primitive campsites. This listing will remain up for historical purposes and to prevent a wasted trip.
