ABOUT US

We are a family run ATV rental and Jeep rental company in Estes Park Colorado.

Growing up in the mountains of Estes Park Colorado, riding dirt bikes, ATV’s, banged up old Jeeps and green broke horses, I knew early on where I wanted to spend the rest of my life. After working as a wrangler in Estes Park, I realized how much I loved working in the tourism business. I raised my daughter in the mountains offering her the same values my father taught me.
Today, you’ll find myself, my daughter, or my wife working the trail or in the shop. My parents also help with the business from time to time, and everyone that works here is considered family. We love what we do, the people, each other, and the good times. I hope you’ll come enjoy them with us, I promise you’ll never forget it.

Unlike so many others in the ATV rental businesses, we do it because we love it, and love the people we meet from all over the country and around the world. This is not a cash cow for us. I enjoy investing every penny back into the business so we can provide the very best customer service, experience, and highest quality ATV’s money can buy. Check out our reviews on Trip Advisor and Google. You’ll see what people love about us and that we care about ALL of our customers.

We don’t use bait and switch tactics. The pictures you see on this website are of our actual machines, riders, and trails.

MISSION: STEWARDSHIP

Forest stewardship is so important to us. Our highest priority is the improvement, care, and sustainability of our National Forest OHV trail systems. Almost any day of the week, you’ll find us involved in one form or another. We also work closely with Big Thompson 4 Wheelers who have the adopt-a-Trail for many of the OHV trails in our ranger district. Check out our blog post about some of the Trail Work we’ve done.
