Say it ain't so
Seriously though, here is some park info from Ron Maximoff, the owner:
The park has 850 acres of moderate to steep hills and gullies along with dry creek bed trails. Our 25 trails that are currently open are rated Easy, Intermediate, or Extreme. The park leans heavily towards the intermediate and extreme which you won't see in one visit (some trails you may not even be able to complete), with enough easy to keep most drivers entertained. The easy trails are for the smaller tired vehicles but they're still trails, not logging roads, that have to be driven so no whining!! There will be plenty of trail guides available to show your groups around until you get used to the trail system. The trails are all marked and you will be given a color trail map at sign-up. Also, if anyone wishes to bring an ATV or motorcycle (we have a professionally designed motocross track in the park and ATV trails) they are required to wear a helmet.
We have 5 mountain lined meadows that we keep mowed for primitive camping equipped with porta-toilets, fire pits and free firewood. There's no electric or water. There are several full facility campgrounds in the area along with cabin rentals one mile from the entrance to the park.
We are 2 miles from the Currrent River, and have an agreement with Jadwin Canoe Rental that will pick your people up for a float trip down the Current River and then drop them back off at the park. Note: They are responsible for making their own arrangements--info about Jadwin Canoe Rental is available on our web-site at
www.flatnasty.net.
We are located 15 miles from Salem with hospitals, 3 auto parts stores, restaurants, Wal-Mart, etc. There is a convenience store one mile from the entrance to the park which has gasoline, beer, liquor and camping supplies along with a small grill for a quick meal.
Barton's Campground is about 1-2 miles from the park.
It has a few multiple bedroom mobile homes available, (1) RV hookup, and primitive camping.
Prices are:
- $15/night/person for the mobile homes.
- $10/night for the RV hookup
- $3/person/night for the primitive campsites.
Mobile home BR are 1st come basis.
On a personal note.
This place is awesome.
The trails are great and the owner bends over backwards to take care of us
No one will be disappointed
