Beverly Dunes

Beverly Dunes
Beverly Dune ORV Area is approximately 300 acres and is managed by the Department of Natural Resources. The sand dunes are great for beginners. Most of the dunes are not that big. There are quad size trails in the trees along both sides of the dune area. There are out houses and trash cans for your use. There is primitive camping area in the trees in the Southwest corner of the ORV area. Beverly Dunes is a great place for family fun.
