One of the key things you’re trying to do
is push for online preregistration?
Jeff
Drost:
Yes. Part of the process at the gate is fumbling
for cash or credit card or your license and
filling out waivers, and with our technology
on the website we can have you fill out everything
beforehand, waiver, entry process, pay for
your RV and everything. That way when you
get here, you have your receipt, they scan
the bar code and check to make sure everything
you have it paid for and send you on your
way.
ATVriders.com:
Do you know about what your fees are going
to be like?
Jeff
Drost:
On our event weekends, our admission if you
do it online, is $55.00 and if you wait to
pay at the gate its $60.00. We have a wide
range of RV locations. We have over 180 full
service RV hookups and sewer spots, the back
end spots are $125, the pull-through spots
are $225, and we have four premium RV spots
that have a big concrete slab, a picnic table,
a fire ring, a barbecue pit, and right on
the edge of the lake and they are $600 for
the entire weekend.
ATVriders.com:
At all the RV Sites they have all of the hookups,
all of the electricity, and water?
Jeff
Drost:
Yes, all 184 of our spots will be pavement,
you’re not going be on gravel or dirt or sand.
Each spot has a 50-amp plug, potable water,
we have the largest water well in North LA.
We are also going to have a 137,000 gallon
water tank with treated water before it gets
out into the main line which leads to all
of the RV spots. Every spot also has a sewage
hookup as well which will be very nice.

If people want to do primitive camping, can
they do that as well here?
Jeff
Drost:
Yes they can, we have 146 acres of cleared,
flat pasture land that we’re going to have
for primitive RV and tent camping. If you
come in with a camper, there is a $15 charge
for primitive camping, we provide a dump station
on the way out of the park for those people.
ATVriders.com:
An event, when does that start and end? What’s
the time frame?
Jeff
Drost:
Most of our events start on a Thursday and
end on a Sunday, but in the case of our grand
opening on Memorial Day weekend, we will stay
open until Monday. We will open the gates
pretty early Thursday morning to let people
in and then they can stay Monday until pretty
much the sun goes down.

Muddy
Bottoms will features a kids spray park
during the day, then at night it will
turn into an adults only water park |
ATVriders.com:
There is also a spray park section. Tell me
about that.
Jeff
Drost:
Yes, we have a kid’s spray park section, it’s
got a lot of those little water jets that
shoot up out of the ground, it’ll have some
of the kid’s toys like water guns, and the
big bucket that fills up and dumps over on
the kids. In the warmer months, it gives the
parents some options for their kids to do
other than just ATV riding.

Construction
of the spay park at Muddy Bottoms |
ATVriders.com:
You mentioned at night the spray park area
will become an adults only park section with
a tall fence.
Jeff
Drost:
Correct, it’s going to have either an eight
foot or six foot fence, which will be solid,
not a chain link fence, and at 9:30PM we’re
going to turn it into what we’re going to
call the “Wet Spot”. We’re going to have a
DJ with some sound and lights, BYOB, and give
the adults some time to kick back and relax
and cool off in the water park.
