There are at least 2 ponds that have fish in them and it is allowed to fish.

Primitive camping is available for free with purchase of a year pass until a proper campground is built.



Anyone with a garmin, I can send you a link to my maps of the trails. The trails are not marked yet because they are logging all winter to create more trails.

Any questions, contact me or email info@rushoffroad.com

that is great news. Finally a park that I can do a quick weekend trip with it only being 4 1/2 hours away from northern ohio!! cant wait to hear more about this park.

SOUNDS GREAT WE WILL VISIT A FEW TIMES

Looked at the website and there are a few rules that might discourage some folks.

Helmets required: I'm defo out, that's why I built a bullet proof roll cage.

No alcohol: No biggy as I don't drink and I completely agree but many here do like to drink.

No firearms: Nope, I always carry when I'm in the woods.

Just a few things to think about.

The helmet and alcohol are both required by insurance, we tried to get it without helmets for sxs and they wouldn't do it because the manufacture suggests it.

The no firearms thing, you aren't going to be patted down, so take it is you will...

The 4 involved in this, the land owner, 2 others, and me, have agreed that all money made off permit sales the first year will be put back into the park.

Just thought I would throw that out too.

Good luck hope yall do really good!glad to see more places opening up seems like all we hear is places closing.

What kinda trails are there? Is it like the Hatfield McCoy Trails? Gravel roads with mud puddles. Or fun technical trails like Brimstone

If you are going by hatfield mccoy ratings, right now everything would be blue or red.

There is a little of every thing, and we are working to get more of the rock climbs and technical trails. There is a lot of rock that will be arranged for some crazy obsticals.

Sounds good I am there

Additional locations to purchase your permit are in the works. We hope to have at least two more convenient locations for you by next week.

Wouldnt it just be easier to set up a shop for permits like brimstone has?

Yes, but we are waiting on the dozer operator to finish the road and parking area and then put gravel down. We will have one by the time we have the grand opening in the spring

Just an update, the ~2 acre parking lot is now graveled, and trail signs are going up. All of the main intersections will be marked by the end of the weekend. The owner is also talking about going ahead and starting on the campground to try and have it open by spring.

Lot of fun work.

That is cool. I love to see new places. I am sure I will get out there is year and try it out.

Is that $75 per machine, or per person? It sucks to pay for your kid to ride on the passenger seat.

Per machine, and you can list 2 vehicles on the permit, but only one can be in the park at a time.

sounds neat !

Awesome

Our cabin is only about 70 mile north of you will try to make it this spring.

My brother and I are going to try and make it up there some weekend

im lookin forward to coming up there and checking it out!
