There is a spot to camp right off of Little Manistee, which is the southern loop of Lincoln Hills. The Camp ground is a statepark with no electric, and only outhouses for bathrooms. It is right on a river, so many people in the summer jump in that. Also is a gas station across the street. You can ride your quad/bike right to the gas pump from your campground and to the trails. Campground is in Carrieville(sp?), right on Kings Hwy.

The trails are bigger and, depending on what time of the year, usually in good shape. Some up hill/downhill riding, nice open stretches to open it up a bit. I have ridden these trails quite a bit and like them.

I rode the 40 + miles of the Little O this past weekend and it was great. Tight, technical and tiring. Be cautious as much of the trail is 2-way but only single track.

These trails are just outside of Baldwin. I have ridden these trails several times, they are great, usually pretty smooth.--Mike

Two things I will never do before I ride that trail.
Eat a big breakfast beforehand and watch my speed going around curves. Picture this..Stump on curve, tree 1 1/2 feet away avoid one to smash into the other. Smash chest into end of handlebar, go airborne = Bruised ribs and well alot of laughing

I was over there about 3 weeks ago with 11 other quads. We rode the Little Manistee, and Tin Cup. They are basicly snowmoble type trails, wide and smooth. There is tighter trails that run along side in some places. I was told by a guy who lives there that the Little O is tight with some whoops. He told us the Big O was for motorcycles only, Because it was to narrow. The camp ground is Carrieville State Camp Ground and is located on Kings HWY. I had fun but I like tight trails, so I go to Bull Gap most of the time.

I thought all those trails were tight so I never went. Maybe this summer I'll check it out.
