    Absolutely the best stretch of the Bogue Chitto River. The staff are super friendly, courteous, professional as well as helpful. Prices are hard to beat. They even have staff patrolling up and down the river to ensure all is OK and well. Love all the different beaches you get to stop at while you walk around and the kids get to burn some energy. The tubes are nice quality. Their cooler tubes are accommodating as well. The only con of this place is the large tree debris spots along the river that you tend to get caught up in at times. From paying, to getting dropped off and lastly exiting the river, this place deserves an 8 out of 10. Fantastic job!

    A lot of fun and a lot of sun. Make sure to bring rope to tie your rafts together, let's of water, food, and sunscreen. There's plenty of beach spots to pull on to stop and eat

    Great experience even with a party member needing a new tube brought to us after being on the river for over an hour. Had no problems otherwise. I think there does need to be at least garbage cans on the islands and some type of signs saying where you are along the way if you need to call them. We will definitely be going back soon!

    Awesome day trip! We did the 4 hour float via river tube and it was only $25. Free parking, they drop you off and pick you up, cooler tubes for $5, life vests on request, dressing rooms & bathrooms on site. Very friendly, well-run company. I’ve never floated the Bogue Chitto but I did a river float in Hot Springs, Arkansas a few years back and this was way more relaxing and organized. Easy float that would be kid friendly (would probably do the two hour one though) since there’s not too many obstacles/rapids and lots of beaches to stop at. Took me less than a 1.5 hours to get here from NOLA and took my friends about 1.5 to get here from BR.10/10 recommend this and I will definitely be back!
