Wildcat Backwoods creates private basecamps built around the way Wildcat riders actually travel — trucks, trailers, machines, muddy gear and all.
Stay close to the trails with the parking, comfort and rider-focused details your crew needs before and after the ride.
Purpose-built around Wildcat riding trips.
Room for trucks, trailers and machines.
Real beds and comfortable recovery spaces.
Located 2.8 miles from Wildcat Off-Road Park trails.
Wildcat Pondside Basecamp isn’t about squeezing the highest possible number of people into a rental.
It’s about giving up to eight riders a comfortable private basecamp built around a Wildcat weekend.
Bring the trucks, trailers, machines and riding gear. We’ve thought about what happens before the first ride and after the machines come back muddy.
Pull in, unload and pull out without turning trailer parking into another obstacle course.
Dedicated covered parking gives the machines a place between rides.
Eight riders can sleep in actual beds — no bunks or air mattresses required.
Hooks, boot trays, shelving and luggage racks give helmets, jackets, boots and bags a place to go.
Finish the riding day around the pond and firepit instead of sitting in a hotel room.
Muddy riding clothes don't have to make the trip home in a trash bag.
Make Riding Easier.
Parking that works. Room for machines. Places for helmets, boots and riding gear. Trail information your crew can actually use.
Less messing around. More riding.
Ride Hard. Recover Here.
Real mattresses. Blackout curtains. Hot showers. Comfortable gathering spaces. Laundry. A stocked kitchen. Outdoor spaces made for unwinding.
Tomorrow is another riding day.
The Little Things Matter.
Easy check-in. Clear parking instructions. Coffee in the morning. A properly stocked kitchen. Plenty of towels. Clean bathrooms.
Our goal is simple:
“They thought of everything.”
Come back from Wildcat and kick off the muddy boots.
Throw the day’s riding clothes in the Speed Queen.
Get dinner going in the kitchen or fire up the grill.
Grab a drink and head toward the pond.
Fish for a while. Pull up an Adirondack around the firepit. Replay the day’s best climbs, mud holes and questionable decisions.
Then shower, close the blackout curtains and sleep in a real queen bed.
Tomorrow?
Do it again.
