Looking for a great place to have fun and let your kids ride their ATVs? Here are our top 5 kid friendly atv rides that we have experienced.
1. Tug Hill, NY
We loved staying at Flat Rock Inn in the Tug Hill region of Upstate NY. It’s definately one of our favorites.
With its beautiful view of a small pond, it also offers a great Inn with friendly gold retrievers roaming around a small restaurant with great food and direct trail access. The campsites are spacious and offer electric and water hook ups and a dump station. Visit www.flatrockinn.com for more details.

Flat Rock is known for their ATV and snowmobile trails. There are nice, flat trails to ride on for kids. It can be quite crowded during the peak season of May – August, so be sure to stay together and follow all the safety rules. Be sure to check the states website www.dmv.ny.gov for updates on ages allowed to ride solo. And of course, always wear a helmet.

Check out Lyman Run Reservoir in the State Park while you’re there! Great place to have the kids swim, fish and paddle boat. Treat them to snack and ice cream in their cute store.
3. Orwell, NY Oswego County Trail System
There are over 100 miles of family oriented trails in Oswego County NY. There are mud holes, woods, fields, bridges and railroad beds along the way.
These trails will lead you to many stores, gas stations and restaurants in the area. The Altmar Hotel is our favorite spot for great food including gluten free options!
We stayed at our property in Orwell. We have two dedicated campsites that can accommodate big campers, boats and vehicles. Great access to the ATV trails, snowmobile trails, Salmon River Falls, and minutes away from world class salmon / steelhead fishing! Check us out on Airbnb.
