The crew at Canoe Outpost was terrific. Although our group had not rented boats the guys were still quick to carry our personal kayaks down to the river, and to load them for the shuttle back from the takeout. Due to low water levels we were given a choice of trips. We opted to paddle a section that required getting... More

Cool, Clear Water! Rent a Kayak, Canoe or just float down the river on an innertube! You can camp, Rent the Cabin (which I highly recommend) or the RV and have a very relaxing time. Everyone (including the black cat) was very friendly and helpful. Watching the sun come up from a rocking chair on the Cabin Porch and a... More

Unlike most canoe trips, this one starts out in very shallow water. For the first hour you will have to get out of your canoe many times to pull it along.

We went to Wimauma (near Sun City) for a day of canoeing. The service was great, with immediate launch and our pickup at the end was exactly as scheduled. The downstream paddle was easy, over half in the shade and many places to stop to "rest" or picnic. We got really lucky and saw 3 manatees, one eating leaves 2... More
