From the Desk of Moses
June 30, 2026

We’re still searching for the desk, but with views like this, we aren’t complaining! We won't be reopening this year but want you to know that rebuilding is officially underway.

A massive shout-out to the incredible outfitting industry for their kindness and support as we rebuild. If you are looking for gear or repairs, please support these amazing folks who have supported us:

* Z Pro Inflatables in Travelers Rest, SC
* Rocky Mountain Rafts
* Man of Rubber River Gear

We hope everyone is doing great and has a safe, wonderful Fourth of July! We truly cannot wait to welcome you all back to the river.

Peace, Love, and Light. ✌️✨

The old Boat Barn is getting a massive upgrade! We just poured and stamped some beautiful new concrete, and it’s officially transforming into an epic new event space.

The momentum is real right now—we’ve got the well in, and our main focus is fast-tracking the brand new Bar & Grill. Get ready for a fresh interior space, an improved bar, and a killer new stage area! 🎶🍔
We're working hard so we can get all of you back out here to enjoy it. Stay tuned for more photo updates on our progress, and keep an ear out for news on the cabins soon.

We sure miss having everyone out here. Hope you all have a fantastic weekend—peace, love, and light! 🏕️✨

Thanks to Z Pro Inflatables for donating facilities and time and to Man of Rubber River Gear for donating valves to repair our rafts and duckies that survived Helene. Z-Pro’s professional repair and custom outfitting facilities are in Traveler’s Rest, SC. Matt had a blast making the trip South!

If you need gear, they have great deals on durable tubes and SUPs; our Z-Pro paddleboards and river tubes that weren’t swept away stayed inflated for a year and a half!

It means the world to have partners in the industry step up with donations of time and supplies to support our recovery effort. We highly recommend both!
