River Access
Easy access from the campground to the Yough for floatin’ and boatin’. We rent’em.
Kayaks, Tubes & Tube Trackers
Float a day away on the beautiful Yough River in a kayak, tube or tube tracker!
Our team will drive you 3 miles upriver to Connellsville. Once at the river park, they’ll assist you as you enter the water and start your float back to camp. Typical float trips take as little as 1 1/2 hours on a canoe or kayak and 2 1/2 to 3 hours on a tube. Actual time spent on the river can depend on river conditions – fast or slow currents – and putting your back into it!
