The road has not been graded in years! The trails are not being taken care of (fill the holes) not add dangerous hills on the trails, which they have on every trail. The hills collect water and everyone is trying to drive around them which pushes the trail out. The garbage is the worst I have ever seen in the 20 Plus years I've been coming here. I have family members that have came here for over 50 plus years. Please take your garbage home with you instead of leaving it for other people to pick up beer bottles, cans, pop cans and water bottles Also dispose of your bodily fluids the way you're supposed to!!! Not put or leave your toilet by the lake, Deer and Cut has at least 5 toilets that are not taken care of the way they should be. Pack it in and pack it OUT before they shut the place down Minnesota!!!

This is a amazing place you can see my videos of it on TicTok. Trails are really fun. Some of the side by sides think it’s a race track, so keep a eye out for them. But all and all it a great place.

The trails were awesome, the camping was great, the lake was warm. We had a wonderful time. The only thing that would possibly be better is if they could make some of the trails one way due to blind spots on the mogle mounds.

Great place for escaping, no cell service. If you don't mind getting muddy, awesome ATV trails. Download the map before you go. There is an entrance on the west side.
