ATV RIDING RULES

ATTENTION:

If the dune access is closed and we aren’t able to open for business, we offer two options:

  1. You can reschedule your reservation to a different day.
  2. We will refund your money.

We do not think it is right to force people to reschedule without any other options. We want to be fair to ALL of our customers and we feel this is the best way to operate our business.

OUR CUSTOMERS SAFETY IS MOST IMPORTANT TO US.

Following the rules will keep you safe and keep our equipment in good condition.

  1. No riding NORTH of Pole 2.
  2. Stay away from the fence line. Most accidents occur from straying too close to the fences.
  3. The speed limit is 15 mph from back of camp sites to the water.
  4. Helmets with chin straps must be worn at all times. This is a state law.
  5. No riding double on the ATVs. This is a state law.
  6. Do not tow other bikes or have them tow you. Your contract can be pulled and no refund given for lost time.
  7. In case of a breakdown or an accident, send someone back to Pole 2 or tell a Ranger. There is also an emergency phone between Pole 4 and Pole 5. Don’t leave a disabled ATV at any time.
  8. Time lost due to mechanical failure will be credited to the disabled vehicle only.
  9. No credit for early returns.
  10. No refunds if it starts to rain.

  13. ATVs rented for over 2 hours must return the Pole 2 for refueling every 2 hours.
  14. Watch out for drifts and sandbowls. Drop-offs can be as much as 80’. Stop at the top of the dune and look before continuing on the other side.
  15. Watch out for other riders and vehicles.
  16. Ride at your own skill level. Don’t push your limit. Riding unlawfully or breaking the rules can lead to accidents.
  17. Anyone not following the rules, caught speeding or riding without a helmet will be escorted back to Pole 2 and the remainder of your riding time forfeited.
