For the Equestrians

Monkey Island Trail Rides offers horses saddled and ready to go for escorted trail rides, including those gentle enough for the youngest rider on the trail. In addition, Royal Horse Ranch features horse-riding camps for all ages and more.

Fun Alternatives to Outdoor Entertainment

If you’ve had enough fun in the sun for one day, or if the weather isn’t cooperating, head inside to some fun and interesting local attractions. Visit Starbird’s National Rod & Custom Car Museum, or take in a movie at the Cinema 6 in Grove.

The Grand Lake Visitor Center on Highway 59 offers a history of the lake and a three-dimensional map showing the entire lake, and the Grand River Dam Authority offers daily tours of the Pensacola Dam.

4 X 4 Trails

Immediately below the Grand Lake Dam in Disney you can experience some of the best rock crawling in the country on a nationally recognized destination for four-wheelers. Vehicles must have a roll bar sufficient to support the weight of the vehicle, and seat belts for each passenger. Camp grounds, cabins, picnic areas and restrooms are available.
