NOTE: FOR THE KIDS AND MILD MANNERED TUBERS
Sundays, Weekdays or 10:00am shuttle on Saturday may be more desirable for the more reserved tuber or families with younger children. Less beer drinking going on but kids can go at any time if the water is not to high and they can swim. Kids under 14yrs. of age camp for free during the Iowa State Fair when tubing with Rock-n-Row. We have noticed more of the senior citizens during the fair too. Make a reservation for the appropriate time.
We go 7 days a week 3 times a day from Memorial Day to mid September.
Our Saturdays book the fastest. Weekdays are less crowded making for a more personal float, so the sooner you make a reservation the better. We know it is hard to get all members of a group to coordinate but we will need to have the numbers as accurate as possible, so keep in touch and let us know if your numbers change or for any reason you can't keep your reservation please let us know you are canceling. Reservations maybe subject to change due to high water or weather conditions. We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. We check on the river conditions almost daily and can let you know approximately how long your trip will take. We prefer reservations date & numbers of people to be 2 weeks prior to your requested date of tubing or camping. But you may call for availability at any time 641-751-3418 you may get lucky for a last minute date.
