Do you deliver snowmobiles? Yes we do! Delivery and pick-up can be arranged at the time of making the reservation. Let us know where you’re staying and we can calculate our delivery/pick-up rate for you. Ask us when you call! ($50 minimum)

Can the snowmobiles be trailed off-site? If snowmobiles are to be trailered off-site, the trailer must have ramps or tilt. **NO SNOWMOBILES WILL BE ALLOWED TO BE TRAILERED IN THE BED OF A PICK UP TRUCK! NO EXCEPTIONS!** Again, this is stated along with other very pertinent information under our Policies section above. A $40 charge for washing will be assessed for snowmobile rentals returned with excessive road salt and dirt from trailing.

What if damage occurs during my rental period? Guests are liable for any and all damages during your rental period. All guests will sign a liability waiver form at arrival time.

Do you rent DOT certified helmets? Why YES we do! For $25 + tax per helmet, you can feel secure knowing you will be protected from the elements all while obeying the law! We also offer electric heated shielded helmets too at $40 + tax per helmet.

Do you rent snowmobile apparel? No sorry we do not.

What should I wear when snowmobiling? Dress in layers. Bring ski-type wear, gloves, goggles (optional). Also, neck gator, scarves and or face mask are nice to have on cold days. Wool and fleece are the best types of material. Avoid cotton if you can! Our handlebars are heated although hand and foot warmers are nice to have along just in case. Don’t forget to pack your backpack with a camera, sunscreen and bottled water.

Do you offer guided trips? Unfortunately we do not. We offer FREE trail maps for your convenience and we highly recommend you download the Polaris Ride Command app onto your smartphone prior to arrival! The app acts as your very own GPS while riding the beautiful trails of Minnesota. You can't go wrong with this app!

How old do I have to be to rent a snowmobile? Renters must have a valid driver’s license with their picture on it and be at least 18 years old. Anyone born after December 31, 1976 must possess a Snowmobile Safety Certificate before they may legally operate a snowmobile.
