ATV Friendly
Motel Ely is snowmobile and ATV friendly, offering off-street truck and trailer parking in our overflow parking lot located across the street next to the Holiday Gas Station. We can accommodate most off-highway vehicles, individual snowmobiles, open and enclosed snowmobile trailers, ATVs, other off-road vehicles, and ATV trailers.
We want to remind our guests of the Minnesota Snowmobile Regulations that all snowmobiles require registration, either from Minnesota or the snowmobiler’s home state. Additionally, non-residents operating an all-terrain vehicle (ATV), off-highway motorcycle (OHM) or off-road vehicle (ORV) on state or grant-in-aid trails, must purchase a Non-Resident Trail Pass.
Sections 8.08 and 8.09 of the City of Ely Code limits where and how ATVs and snowmobiles may be ridden with the city limits. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask us!
