I have a group possibly heading down there this weekend, and had a few questions. Anyone thats gone there ever rented a cabin, if so, how much did it run? I've researched some, just wondering if there are any good deals. We will have about 8 people, maybe more. Do you have to be registered in Kentucky? Their website says you have to register with LBL, so I'm confused. How strict are they with DB levels, I know their website says that you have to have a baffle, just wondering if they enforce this? Any info and additional advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

 

ANYONE?

 

BUMP!

 

There is a web site for riders from KY. I believe it is kentuckyriders.com ?? Maybe there would be someone there that could help you out. We've been wanting to go and ride there too. (Mrs. Q)

 

Thanks Quadcrew! I'll check that out. We'll be down there Friday, Sat, and Sun morning....If you see a bunch of trucks from Indiana, give us a shout!!! Thanks.

I have been to LBL about 5 times, you will have a blast. When you get there you have to register your ATV, but all they want is the make, model, 2wd or 4wd, name and address. They do have rangers that drive around and check people for drinking and they will arrest you. If you are drinking, be careful because it is a federal affence if caught. You do not have to register with KY. I don't think that they care about DB levels too much, I have never heard of anyone getting in trouble. Hope you have a good time and be careful.

 

KFXTrailrider,

Hey, thanks for the very helpful info, especially the heads up on the alcohol issue! That blows, I'm going to have some very disapointed campers, including me! Oh well, at least we will have a blast exploring the place! Thanks

Disclaimer- Diablo, nor any of his associates, do not promote drinking and riding a mechanized vehicle, or drinking alltogether. Notice that I said "campers," meaning people at a campsite, not on the trails. We also do not promote the right for people to modify thier quads in any manner in order to increase performance, and possibly violate DB regulations. Sorry, had to throw that in to make some people(BLACKBALLED) happy.

 

I was just at LBL last Saturday 26th. There are no cabins in the OHV area, but there is camping, no hook ups. A town called Aurora just minutes from the park has a lot a mom & pop type of places, some with pools. You can also see if the state parks have any, Kenlake, and Lake Barkley state parks are both very nice but book up quick.

I've been to Turkey bay many times over the years and have never been stopped or tested for anything. I ride a TRX250R with a LRD pipe so I know it's over the db limit. I did see some forest rangers there last weekend but they wert stopping anyone. Also my son who is 11 rides a 250ex but they have never asked his age or stopped us.

As long as you don't get crazy or speed up and down the main road they should let you be.

 

Thanks ATVDAVE Now were're thinking of just taking a bunch of tents and camping there at LBL. I'll let my buddy know about the DB not being enforced, he's been scrambling around trying to get a silencer for his quad. Thanks

You can drink but I highly recommend putting it in a red cup. If you want to set up a tent, there is plenty of places, which makes for a good night. Hope you guys have a good time!!
