The County Road 104 to County Road 105 stretch is one of a few paddling stretches in this river system. If you've been whitewater
    rafting and kayaking outside this state you might find the rivers here a bit more forgiving, so you'd better keep in mind that a large number of rivers in this state are quite easy. Getting some good exercise and just being out on the river for a while are great reasons to come.
The beauty of the Boston Mountains is a great plus for this river. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set.
