    Richard's Canoe Rental & Campground

    Great Place with Homey Feel

    $10 per night, firewood, ice, and more amenities on site.  The owner is so nice.  His dog Lil' Dan also slept with me.  There is a horse next to the camp sites and it's just so beautiful.  Float launches from the campground, so convenient.  Close to Grand Gulf, Greer Spring, Mammoth Spring, and right on beautiful highway 19.  I will be back soon!

    Boze Mill Float Camp

    Stunning location

    I have never camped here but visit when kayaking. You can access it from the river and it is a short walk and well worth it

    Beautiful Area!

    Beautiful secluded area. Small (only 3 or 4 sites). River access and super close to stream/cave/waterfall area. Water from the cave is so fresh and clear! Truly a beautiful area!

    Irish Wilderness

    rustic, hike in, solitude

    fun 2 day (three of you need it) hike through whites creek loop. Plan around hitting the two springs on both legs of the 20 mile loop. car camping available at the camp 5 pond trailhead (no water available). BRING A GPS! The trail is very easy to lose and after 20+ miles you’ll want the comfort of knowing where you have been/are going!

    Richard's Canoe Rental & Campground

    11 point river

    This is a great place to start your 11 point river trip! Stop here to rent your canoes or kayaks and get dropped off wherever. You can drive to Greer Spring that is a spring that comes out of a cave. It was in Backpacker Magazine as well. This has been my favorite river to float down so far. I’d suggest making the trip without kids the first time to judge your skill level. It’s a bit fast and deep at the beginning. Lots of stopping points on this river. Very scenic.
