However, adventure is still present. During this season the Ozarks offer the best views to accompany your float and fresh smells of flora will nearly overwhelm you. No experience is necessary. Prices include all equipment, transportation/fuel, trip leaders and fees.

Our stay will include two nights camping on the rivere, a countryside road tour and of course, a scenic canoe tour. Sit around a campfire, hike along the bluffs, or swing in a hammock during your relaxation time. Canoe instructionwill be provided. Prices include all transportation, equipment/gear, guides and fun.
