Nice place to launch. The river was beautiful with gorgeous little beaches to rest in between your trip. Also plenty of places to camp on the small beaches.

Ray was amazing, went for my boyfriends birthday on monday and the process was quick and we were on our way down the river. Highly recommend!

The owner was so nice. Explained which way to go, told us to watch out for "Tiny" aka a 15 ft gator, which we never saw thank God! loved that we park in a gated area where we know our cars would be safe while we were away. Also really appreciate that he is being very careful and having everyone social distancing by setting launch times. would definitely launch from there again.

Very accommodating! Ray helped us set in, warned us of high winds, was extra fun to chat with and we look forward to going back soon. Thanks! ☆☆☆☆☆

So simple and if you go during the week you may well be the only person on the river. Check the tides for easy paddling. Old Florida all the way!😉 Bring sunscreen, a small cooler and a pair of gloves.
