We definitely suggest a reservation so that you get exactly what you want when you ride with us. A reservation also helps us make sure we have everything ready for you before you arrive.
You are more than welcome to walk-in as well as call in, or book online for a same day reservation. We ask that you keep in mind we may have limited availability or longer wait times to ensure that the people who have reservations are taken care of. Our staff will do their best to get you in and out as fast as possible if you decide to ride.
If you book in advance and need to cancel you must cancel at least 48 hours prior to your reservation. If you cancel 48 hours prior to your reservation you will receive a full refund and no penalty. We do understand that things happen, but unfortunately if you find that you are under 48 hours and need to cancel for ANY reason we will not be able to offer a refund at that time and are not able to make exceptions to this policy. However, we can issue a gift card/credit that can be used for a ride in the future. If you need to reschedule or make changes we will do our best to accommodate your request depending on our availability.

On the day of your reservation we strongly suggest that you arrive at least 30 minutes early for your check-in. Our process for this is pretty simple but coming early will give you plenty of time to get checked in, ask questions, cover your vehicle, and take a bathroom break before you depart. This prevents your check-in from cutting into your ride time as well. We ask that you have your entire group gathered and together before you start this process in order to create a better experience for everyone. This helps our staff not have to repeat or cover information more than once and ensures everyone in your group is on the same page.
Unfortunately, if you arrive late for your reservation you will cut into your ride time. Our units usually go out several times day and need to be back to our location by a certain time. Therefore, we are not able to offer extensions in time or a discount if you are late for your check-in. Please make sure to account for travel time and any traffic you might encounter.

While there usually aren't any issues so long as you are here for the scenery and not to drive recklessly, 99% of people find that they place their deposit and it is immediately released back to them. Unfortunately, as with many activities...things happen. No one ever anticipates having an accident on the trails, but these types of things are typically caused by high speeds, donuts, fishtailing, following too closely, improper wheel placement, racing, and not adhering to basic trail etiquette. Also, major additional damage to the vehicle can be caused when it is driven after it has been tipped or rolled over. When an accident occurs (no matter how big or small, slow or fast, minimal it may seem) make sure you call our offices to ensure additional damages aren't created within the motor. As an outfitter with Polaris Adventures for the safety of future renters/riders we are REQUIRED to keep your deposit until the vehicle has been fully inspected and repaired. There will not be an estimate at the time of the incident and the process for repair and invoicing can take up to 14 business days. The operations manager will reach out to you regarding your repair and cost for damage. Remember folks, these vehicles are not cheap to repair. We want our customers to be safe and happy with their ride. We ask that you come to Branson Offroad Renatls to enjoy the buety of the Ozarks and to please bring the vehicle back to us in the same condition in which you took it. You will be responsible for any damages to the vehicle that are not from basic wear and tear. We do a full coverage of your vehicle before you leave just like any other rental company. We take photos before you leave and when you return. We certainly encourage you to do the same.
