We stayed in the silver lake area last summer and decided to try mac wood dune rides. Everyone had fun, from my 3 year old son to my 65 year old mom.. It was completely safe, I just wish it could have been a little bit longer..

Fun, informative and a nice break. Just be careful where you sit, the sand will get you and it hurts! It's a little pricey, but they count on tourist so splurge.

It is an exciting ride through the Silver Lake Sand Dunes. I would highly recommend stopping here to take a dune ride. People and drivers are friendly, and it is so much fun.

We had the best driver "Weasie"! I really enjoyed the fact that our group of 10 were able to all be together. We had a beautiful day for our rides. Weather was perfect.
