Had the best time Kayaking! The staff were very friendly and helpful. I spent 7 hrs on the river and it didn't disappoint. The views were awesome. Saw a lot of turtles sunning and a few manatees. Glad I brought a small cooler with water and snacks. It was a long nice time.

Nice local campground. It has spaces for tents and RVs though it may be tight. They also have some cabins and even a small school bus called the The Kool Bus that you can rent. The bathroom facilities are one of the best I’ve seen. You can either rents canoes/kayaks or bring your own. If you stay on the weekend of the full moon you can do the moonlight canoe trip, it is definitely worth it. Management is open to feedback in an effort to make it enjoyable for all. Highly recommend giving it a shot.

Can not recommend this place enough! Staff is kind and so helpful. I've been canoeing my whole life and this by far is the easiest fastest and most affordable way to have a great trip! My family has used their services many times and have always had a great experience. From toddler to elderly their short trip is perfect and shadey most of the way down the river. Staff is also knowledgeable on river depth and any obsticals so if it's going to be a rough day they will let you know!

outstanding restrooms. Better than what you see in some peoples houses. The rental process was easy. The guys were extremely friendly and entertaining. Our 6 mile trip took about three hours but we took it easy. I will definitely do it again and can’t wait to get back.

You can bring your own canoe if you want and if you only want to use the dock the fee is $5 but if you want to do one of the trips and be brought back there's a transportation fee of $22 for trip one, if you have a second boat or third boat or anything there after the fee is $17 each boat, have canoes and kayaks there to rent as well.

I don't think they have tubing. I wouldn't do it with all the alligators in the water.

Can we bring a boiler on the canoe

Joshua Wilkinson | Aug 30, 2020

I'm not sure about a boiler - do you mean to boil food like for a picnic along the banks? The rental kayaks have straps that can hold a cooler - which I did - very convenient and great for when we stopped midway for lunch and regular water breaks. You can bring a cooler in the canoe also.

Are there tubing rentals?

Kyle McElya | Aug 30, 2020

Kyle. We do have tubing rentals but our river is much different than the spring fed tubing rivers in north Florida. Please call me to discuss the details and see if the experience is right for you.

Carrie. Assuming that you are referring to a rope swing and not other some other fun recreational activity then yes. The local folks have put up a couple of rope swings on the river that many folks choose to use. Brian R Canoe Outpost Little Manatee River
