My family planned a float trip and used Hootentown. The reservation process was simple. All we had to do was call and tell them what we wanted, when we wanted it and give our name. When we arrived things were a bit chaotic. It took 20 minutes of standing in line to register. after registering it was almost an hour before they called our name for transportation. the transportation made multiple stops and it took another 30 minutes before we were on the water. Other places we have planned float trips through had the kayaks at the start point already and it took much less time. Other than the river being a bit low the actual float was awesome. The scenery is absolutely beautiful and there are many places to stop and relax or have a picnic. The kayaks we rented were not new by any means but were in good working order and even had a water proof storage which was awesome. I would go back but plan to arrive earlier to make up for the disorganization.

Ok so the people that run the place are awsome along with the staff, but the locals on the river are a little sketchy I would recommend carrying a gun for protection other than that not a bad river

We called the day before to make a reservation for the 13 mile trip. We were told the last shuttle for this trip leaves at 9AM. We showed up at 8:45 and were paid and ready to go before 9. We were told they had to get the shuttles ready to go and then we would be ready to go. 45 minutes later with no word from anyone, we checked with the office and were told the shuttles weren't even on site. They had to drive 30 minutes to go get the shuttle. Shuttles should be back in 15 minutes they said. Another 45 minutes went by and one shuttle showed up. But none of the right equipment had been loaded up, so another 10 minutes to get that taken care of. But the shuttle was only for the other group. We went in and asked for a refund so we could leave. We were denied because \it wasn't their fault.\ I guess it was our fault for showing up on time. Finally another 15 minutes later out shuttle showed up and was ready to go. We took off around 10:50 for our 9:00 appointment. Not one worker seemed to care and we talked to some others that had floated there before and this seems to be the new normal. While on the river, one of our kayaks leaked. We had to empty it 3 times. We told the guys at the end who helped us out of the water. They very nonchalantly said \it must have a crack or hole.\ No apologies, no inspection of the raft, no reaction at all. The river was great but do not waste your time or money with this place.

Best watering hole ever. Gotta love Diana and Steve and their hardworking crew. Always a great personality and friendly atmosphere. Kayak and canoe rental is very reasonably priced as well as camping fees, not much of a wait time for shuttling to drop points. Food and beverages and mostly anything you might need for the river and camping. If you're lucky, you might come across one of the Hootontown rocks. Painted with cute sayings, and there's rocks that have \treats\ on them that you turn into the office for a cool treat. I love this place. Ill always come back for more
