What OUR CLIENTS SAY about us?

We had a FABULOUS experience! What a special location, and what a special tour guide (Steve)! Even the food truck in the parking lot was awesome 🙂 Thanks for such a fun afternoon ... we hope to bring the kids back soon!

The atv tour was fun, fascinating, and unique. The scenery was beautiful and the added bonus of the mine tour was so much fun. Steve was a very knowledgeable and passionate guide, both of the trail and riding itself as well as the history of the mine and land in that area. It was obvious he truly enjoys what he does and that made the overall experience even better. The ride was safe yet thrilling and that was exactly what I was seeking. I highly recommend Xplore Rentals to anyone who is looking for an adventure and adrenaline rush.

We did the morning 4.5 hour tour with friends of ours. We had a wonderful time. Steve was a great tour guide. We appreciated a bit of history that he gave us. I was honestly worried that it would be a "slow" tour behind a guide, but we had lots of chances to open it up. It was great!

Had a great time. At first was disappointed the rentals had to be part of a “tour” but there was plenty of chance to ride at a decent pace and have fun.

Have a great time! Our guide was very nice and took us on easy and hard trails but in a way that felt very safe to a first timer. Would go again!

My wife and I did the 4.5 hour morning tour where each of us rented and drove our own ATV. The guide (Steve - who was great!) rode his ATV and then there were two couples in side-by-sides. This was the first time my wife and I had ever ridden an ATV. We are age 60 and pretty fit, and we both had a blast on the ATVs! Our quads were a little sore the next couple of days, but well worth it.
You will definitely get a little muddy/wet (assuming not in a drought), but you can choose just how muddy/wet you want to get by diving in or avoiding some of the big "puddles". There were lots of trails, so not too much traffic with other ATV riders, and it was really cool (literally) going into the mine.
If you're looking at the site and considering doing this - you should definitely go for it!

my wife and I had a great time on our side by side tour!
so many trails, of all different skill levels.
we were treated for lunch about halfway through excellent food and my wife commented to me that her cheeks hurt from smiling so much and laughing!
it was great I would definitely do it again!

We booked a sunrise tour and planned a trip to the area. I had not been on a tour like this before. We arrived in the morning to check in and preordered our lunches. We were the only ones taking the morning part of the tour which turned out to be really nice. Our guide Steve immediately made us feel welcome and comfortable as we picked out helmets and googles. We checked out the Yamaha side by sides, which were all the current year models, and had bottles of water available for our ride. We headed out to hit the trails. In the morning we followed Steve as we explored many of the trails. We did hill climbs and rock crawls, and saw the old mansion site, a remote old, abandoned mine portal and an old blasting stone quarry. All the while, Steve would give us the rundown on the area. He was an awesome guide and shared tons of information about the property. Then we stopped for lunch which was included, and joined up with 2 other groups that went out for the afternoon ride. In the afternoon, we rode more trails, navigated a river run, and went down into the mine for a tour. We stop inside the mine and get to hear about the history and check out the old mushroom farm on the way out. Then, some more riding before hitting the mud bogs. What a blast! We were covered in mud and had a great time. We also searched for watermelon, and my wife found one hidden in the woods! It was time to head back and get our prize. The tour was complete. I highly recommend Xplore rental at mines and meadows. Again, Steve was a great guide!

The Nuts and Bolts of THE SUNRISE DAY TOUR
4.5 Hours of complete Xcitement! It starts right at check-in, the wait to Hit the trails, but keep calm it only takes about 30 minutes for the orientation before we get you all out to play in the Dirt. We will help you with fitting a helmet and eye protection before a short video explaining the machines and some other items to keep our great tour guests safe.
Now it’s time to jump in or on your rental and head to the Trailhead for what starts an almost 2 Hours of straight up riding before we break for either food truck of the day or lunch from one of the local cuisines, your choice!
After 30 minutes of filling up, that’s our tummies of course (not the machines), we will set out to the Underground portion of the tour which is gotta be one of the Coolest experiences on an ATV. Literally, it is pretty Cool, 55 degrees to be exact, every day, all day inside the mine. We will wind through the cavern and head towards the 3 acre underground lake before we stop to tell you the history in complete darkness. I hope No Monster of Miners Past come crawling out of the lake! After the spiel we start’em back up to head by the corridor that used to be an underground mushroom farm before we head back out to daylight.
We have to do a quick head count before navigating some of the history sites of the 877 acre facility. The old mansion site, several other old abandoned mine portals and an old blas ng stone quarry.
Heading back for a Quick and Easy check-out. After turning your helmet in we will do a quick walk around just to make sure your machine is not damaged, so we can safely return your damage deposit.
We part ways, but we never say goodbye, just a so long for now, and we hope to see you again soon!
Don’t forget to take a look in Trailhead Powersports for a nice take home Souvenir! The shirt designs are super cool!
The Nitty Gritty of THE AFTERNOON EXPRESS TOUR
1.5 Hours of quick and pure Xcitement! It starts right at check-in, the wait to Hit the trails, but keep calm it only takes about 15 minutes for the orientation before we quickly get you out to play in the Dirt. We will help you with fitting a helmet and eye protection before a short video explaining the machines and some other items to keep our great tour guests safe.
Now it’s time to jump on or in your rental and head to the Trailhead for your 1+ hour jaunt around the
park. I nice loop around trail 1 before we head through the campground over to the private trails of the
Famous Mine Tour. We will head up over 250 feet above the Mine Entrance before we embark back down to the Mine Portal for a quick head count. (We don’t want to lose anyone…lol) This is by far the Coolest
experiences on an ATV. Literally, it is pretty Cool, 55 degrees to be exact, every day, all day inside the mine.
We will wind through the cavern and head towards the 3 acre underground lake before we stop to tell you
the history in complete darkness. Sometimes if you listen close, you can still hear the miners drilling the
limestone by hand. All they had was a carbide lamp on their heads providing just enough light to see only
a foot or two in front of them. After the mine tour spiel we start’em back up to head towards the corridor
that used to be an underground mushroom farm before we head back out to daylight.
We have to do a quick head count again before a nice leisurely loop around trail 2 where you will see a few abandoned old mine portals and then head back to the office for check-out. If we have time, we might take a trip to a fan favorite stone quarry.
Heading back for a Quick and Easy check-out. After turning your helmet in we will do a quick walk around just to make sure your machine is not damaged, so we can safely return your damage deposit.
We part ways, but we never say goodbye, just a so long for now, and we hope to see you again soon!
Don’t forget to take a look in Trailhead Powersports for a nice take home Souvenir! The hoodies are super soft and a must have for a lasting memory of the time you spent having a blast at M&M!
