Wonderful location with dense woods right down to the river. Very popular when the weather is warm. Our group canoed and kayaked the river. The river has some rapids and I would advise against inexperienced people from canoeing this section. Sit on top kayak is best. This trip took us about 5 to 6 hours but we took several breaks.
