Our Canoe Season

Starting in May of each year and running through the end of October we are open for your enjoyment 24 hours a day, seven days a week!

 
The Island
River John's River Island is approximately 3 and 1/3 acres in size. The River Island is surrounded by the waters of the Little River with two bridges to access by. One bridge is a walking bridge and the other is for vehicles to cross onto the island. River Island is covered with plenty of trees for shade and open areas for the enjoyment of sports.
 
Island Shelter
A large opened and covered shelter is the focal point for group gatherings. This covered pavilion is 30' X 20' and can be utilized by campers as a meeting place, a place to dance or play cards
 
Electricity
Electrical outlets are provided at the pavilion for the charging of your cell phones, playing a stereo or even watching television. This is provided as a convenience for our patrons who bring small appliances and not to be used to power heavier appliances requiring heavy wattage. 
 
Camp Fires
There are designated areas set aside for camp fires. Please inquire as to their locations prior to setting up camp. If you wish to place tents near a campfire please pitch tents at least 20 feet back from the campfire areas.

Pricing
We have many packages available. They range from one person to groups of a hundred or more. Please contact River John or Earl Ailor and give them the details on your group's planned outing.
