A rare sight for Cherokee County, Oklahoma! We see quite a few elk each year, but not many that are this size!

Our season is winding down! We will still be open daily until Labor Day, Monday September 7th, and on the weekends throughout September.

You will still be able to float on days our office is closed, but online reservations will be required.
We will continue to float until it gets too cold. Last year our last day of floating was October 22nd.

River update:
Water levels have gotten pretty low. Levels are currently at 3.55 feet on the Moodys gauge (Combs bridge) and 4.85 feet on the Tahlequah gauge. Dragging is still minimal. If you don’t stay right in the main river channel, there will be a couple spots throughout the float you may have to drag to get through.
We are going to start cutting our long trip off at 10, and the short tip at 1, until we get a rise in water levels.
(Pictures are from today)

Finishing up another long busy day on the river! Thank you to all of our amazing customers that continue to support us!
