🍂 Fall is the best-kept secret on the James River.

Cooler temps. Brilliant foliage. Fewer crowds. The water is still perfect for floating — and the scenery through the Ozarks? Absolutely stunning this time of year.

We're open Wednesday–Saturday through October and into November, but the season goes fast. Don't miss your chance to float through some of the most beautiful river scenery in Missouri.

Because our names are similar, we’ve had some confusion lately with customers thinking they booked with us when they actually booked somewhere else.
