    No trouble getting in from downstream of the island. 15' depths the whole way in. Very quiet and peaceful here. A good place to spend the night.

    Great place to stay. The people couldn't be nicer or more helpful. The river briefing by Jeremy is worth the stay. The guy is an encyclopedia of knowledge about the river. Used nice courtesy car to hit Walmart for needed supplies. A great stop.
