Great experience! People are very friendly and gave good safety instructions. We had a lot of fun.

great customer service and very easy to get a rental. Very easy to pay for no long lines or wait time.

Absolutely grateful I stumbled upon Arnie's! The other places had a decent wait time, so i wondered around to see what other options we had and stumbled upon Arnie's. Arnie's not only had availability, but they had manual ATV and atv for kids (both limited). Which is different! Not only were their service fantastic and kind, they were also very friendly and fun people to talk to. They are huge on safety for their riders with training and ensuring you have proper sized helmet and making sure you're comfortable to ride. They wash their helmets and googles which were super reassuring. Their price are affordable too. You have the base price depending on the atv you rent and the first hour and then for the second hour, its additional 40$. And I HIGHLY recommend getting the affordable insurance too. Always glad to support small businesses too. But, you don't have to just take my words for it. You should check them out too. read more

We've tried all of the nearby ATV rentals and kinda landed on Arnies for the last couple of years. This trip our daughter broke her arm the day before and we couldn't go riding. Arnie's policy is no refunds. I understand a policy, but being a better human also is better customer service. So go to Arnie's for the least bad riding experience. They haven't left us in the dunes on a non-functional quad. Do keep in mind there are no exceptions with their refund policy. read more

Arnie's ATV Rentals - Can't ride after ER visit. - ATV Rentals/Tours Near Me - Oceano, California

We rented ATVs from Arnie's this past weekend and honestly had a really great experience. I was a little nervous going in because I've seen a lot of mixed/negative reviews about ATV rental companies in the area, but Arnie's had the best pricing so we decided to give it a shot. I'm really glad we did. The front desk person was super friendly and made check-in easy. Our group was split into two for the walk through, and I ended up with Zach while my kids were with another staff member. I'm specifically leaving this review because of Zach. He took the time to walk us through everything, explained things clearly, and made sure we felt comfortable before heading out. Our group of six were all first-timers, so we were excited but definitely nervous. Zach completely changed that for us and made the whole experience feel easy and fun. On the other side, my kids had a different experience. The other staff member wasn't very engaged when they asked questions. His responses felt more like he was talking to experienced riders, and he didn't seem very interested in helping or being there. I ended up asking Zach to help them out. Overall, we still had a really fun time and felt taken care of thanks to Zach. If you're booking with Arnie's, I'd definitely recommend trying to go when Zach is there--he really makes the experience. read more

Great Service. Great experience. My 14 year olds and I rented ATVs last week. We were beginners so staff took the time to give us instruction and tips. They took care to teach us etiquette and safety and pointed out the best places in the dunes for novice riders. Their care made me feel much better about riding with teens. The ATVs, helmets and goggles were in excellent condition. We will absolutely go to Arnie's again. read more

Arnie's ATV Rentals - ATV Rentals/Tours Near Me - Oceano, California

We had a group of 35 to go ATVing. We rebooked with them and they did a good job with our large party. There are helmets, a safety video & instructions on the beach. Parking is on the side streets and not too far but the street they are located is traffics because of all the campers. The kids had a blast. Our mixed group had a variety of renters and they were able to accommodate all of our wishes. I was very glad that we rented doubles because the have more power to go over dunes. Many single couldn't get up and needed help. The dunes were much larger than I thought. 90 minutes was PLENTY!!! read more

Real fun experience! Me and my friend got two hours and it was honestly the perfect amount of time for us. Arnie's was also a bit cheaper than the other rental places in the area and we didn't have to wait in a line to check in. read more

Fantastic experience. Took my 15 year old son today for Spring Break. We made it at 3pm today, just in time for the last booking on the spot. Office staff was friendly and professional. After taking care of business, she directed us to the beach, where we were shuttled to where they keep the ATVs. Our guide, Zack, made everything clear, explained the lay of the land on the map, and let us know where we could safely go. We booked an hour and had an absolute blast. Beach wasn't too crowded, nor were the dunes. We were definitely able to open our ride out and really "rip" as they say. We got plenty of dune riding in, took in great view, got some nice photos and returned to home base. Everything went off without a hitch, and we were shuttle back to the shop. This place is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. We took a 2 seater, but next time we're coming back to go individually. read more

Me and my family planned a family trip and wanted to go atving, we called ahead to check availability and reserve a spot. The lady on the phone said that they were going to close early but insisted that if we arrived before 2:30 we could atv. So we then made it a point to arrive at 2:00, upon arrival the lady said that they were closing early and would no longer allow us to rent their atvs. We were very disappointed. A call prior would have been a good heads up, especially since we came all the way from San Francisco. Plus they weren't even supposed to close till 6. read more

We rented from Arnies 10/12/25 for the first and LAST time. Having rented from STEVEs in the past we were disappointed to find out they had no availability and read great reviews on Arnies and decided to give a try. This is a much smaller business, a bit cheaper, and there is no safety video or instruction for new or experienced rider and that should have been a huge red flag. Why, because this is the dunes and conditions are varying and how to handle the ATVs here is different. The quality of the ATVs seemed ok and only given helmets not chest shields like at STEVEs Rental. The first 30-40 mins was mostly smooth except a few stallings and then our 25 yr old son was thrown off the ATV by one of the ridges!!! We got his helmet off and saw foot was bent sideways...it happened so fast honestly. Other riders near by stopped to help give our son a ride back and helped ride his ATV back and I picked our son up by the entrance to the state park and drove him to the ER. I know weavers were signed, but between having rented lower quality ATVs and none of Arnies staff showed up to assist nor have they reached out to us AND that says a lot about this company. If we were to ever rent and ride in the dunes again I would rent from a safer company with better equipment to be honest. Yes you pay a bit more but it's worth it. Our son had surgery on his ankle once we got home since we were from out of town and endured 5 fractures, has 14 screws and will not be able to put any weight on it or drive for 4 + months...the stress this has caused our family is overwhelming and it could have been a lot worse read more

Amazing experience! Dunes were great. Morning session is the call. Little to no wind and no traffic.

Easy transaction and friendly customer service. Best prices around Catherine was very friendly and accommodating.

Kathryn was so friendly! We really enjoyed the professionalism and quality of the rental ATVs. We will definitely go back.

As a first timer at the dune (ATV) the price is the lowest. We rented the 250cc manual transmission. Oh boy they look bad and not powerful enough to climb the hills sometimes. If we only knew they were in bad condition, we would have rented the 400cc instead. The helmet they gave me initially was soaking wet with sweat. The lady the office is super nice and accommodating. We cut our trip shorter, we parked the atv's where we got it from, the guy with longer hair said , we had to move and park it on the other spot. He said get your helmet back and wear it to move it to another spot. The guy was too lazy to move it for us. We just let him do his job. I might try steve's or sun buggy next time. I guess when learned something. You get what you paid for read more

We came here to rent ATVs while staying at Pismo Beach. We rented quads for our family of four for two hours. My older son's quad overheated and stopped running after an hour. We called Arnie's and they said they would tow it back. My husband waiting with my son for 45 minutes to be towed back. When they arrived, there was no attempt to make it right, provide a refund, or get them back on another bike. My husband asked if they would refund the second hour, but was told that "overheating just happens" and there was nothing they could do. I was upset about spending over $600 and having a poor experience, so I called the office. She reluctantly offered us $40 off the price because of my son's bike overheating. When I reminded her that my husband was also unable to ride for the second hour and his money should be refunded, I was told that was "pushing it." We left our experience feeling disappointed. We spent what seemed like a lot of money to have poor customer service and a clear lack of interest is customer satisfaction. read more

Very easy and beginner friendly experience and customer service was amazing! Some of the bikes had some quirks of needing to adjust to get things shifting but once you got riding after a few minutes and got comfortable with the ATV you were riding it was amazing. Great area to ride for beginners or adventurous riders! Would highly recommend. We had a blast! read more

Just finished renting 3 quads from arnies , great experience. Everything was enjoyable. I finished my 2 hour session and decided to pull out my grill and eat some hot dogs. I was parked a bit away from the rental trailer . Out of nowhere comes "Richard" the guy who drives the shuttle, Demanding that I move ."I am the main guy, you can't be here" . After I just spent $430, I can't grill my food .? Richard was definitely on a power trip . read more

They are fast and kind! They allowed out huge party to ride together. I will be coming back!

This was our first time ATV riding and it was awesome! The staff at Arnie's from start to finish were very nice and helpful. They were efficient and also made sure we understood the map/layout of the sand dunes and how the ATVs worked. There were 1,400 acres of sand dunes for us to ride ATVs on! We did the 2-hour rental with automatic ATVs and had a great time. They had a phone number that we could call if we had questions or got stuck while ATV riding. We called once and they answered right away and offered assistance. I totally recommend this company if you are wanting to rent ATVs in Pismo Beach. read more

If I made my girlfriend happy, I'm happy. Take my money and take all of it. It was her first time doing ATVs and she loved every bit of it. Being someone who has rode them at Pismo Beach in the past, I wanted to give her the same experience. Getting the ATVs was the easy part. You sign a couple of waivers, pick the ATV that you wanted. They came in different CCs. The CCs on an ATV refer to the engine's cubic centimeters, which is a measurement of the engine's volume. The higher the CCs, the faster and the more power the ATV will have. The only downside about ATV renting is that they give these outdated and horrendously long "safety videos" for you to watch which overcomplicates the whole ATV riding process. I came out more confused after watching the video. Not having reception and waiting for the video to buffer wasn't fun either. Once we got to the sand, we were doing donuts and going at high speeds like no other. My girlfriend even made me eat her dust a couple times. It was definitely a fun time for the both of us. read more
