Our section of the Ouachita is very weather-dependent. Some days the river can be very low and slow..some days it is flooded and unsafe for boat rentals. 

We suggest our guests and boat renters monitor the river levels at the link below.

 

Our rental threshold (the flow rate at which we allow boat rentals and shuttles) is between 100 and 1400 CFS (cubic feet per second). Rentals during flow rates higher and lower are not allowed, and will have to be cancelled or rescheduled.

Overnight and Weekend Trips

You can rent our boats for a kayak or canoe camping trip! You can camp (almost) anywhere on the banks of the Ouachita.

We'll help you plan your trip!

​

Fees:

Regular Boat Rental fee plus $40/each additional day
