ACTIVITY LEVEL
Guests will paddle calm, relatively fast moving water on a tour that has been timed with the breeze and tides for a leisurely experience.
PARKING
Lakeville Landing is a dirt/gravel parking lot that may be muddy during rainy season.
If you choose to leave your car at Lakeville prior to launch, enter at the south entrance off Lakeville Highway. Park immediately on the left or against the fence closer to the ramp.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN WHEN DEPARTING LAKEVILLE LANDING. When leaving Lakeville Landing, regardless of south or northbound destination, enter the highway with a RIGHT turn. This is a dangerous entry/exit from the highway. If you need to head northbound simply merge into the left turning lane once back on the highway, about one hundred yards or so, exit the highway, and do U-Turn on the side road. Then head back northbound.
