Absolutely gorgeous! Very spacious and wide river filled with wildflowers and other plants. The river has a little bit of everything. It is open so there is a lot of sun, but it also has some shaded areas with a few obstacles after you get down the river a ways.. It has a few small rapid parts (when shallow).. it has multiple rest stops on the river which are mainly like sandbars. There are a lot of birds to look at too! Especially Cranes and White Egrets. A few turtles and minnows! Very peaceful! You feel like your out in the middle of nowhere! Today was my first time on it and I absolutely loved it! You can smell the wildflowers the whole time kayaking down it! I highlyrecommend! It's a great beginners river for those just learning to kayak! :)
Pretty easy to find from the water. Lots of parking and restrooms available. The take out can be a little rocky.
Small but easy boat launch
Great place to put in or take out. They have toilets and picnic tables. Get there early to park in the lot, otherwise you'll have to park on the road.
The firemen and or paramedics were very helpful with my questions with my diabetes tnx so much
Amazing views great with a canoe or kayak.
