Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way this is an area with not too many other places for that. There are plenty of hotels here if you want to spend a night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. The GA Route 18 to GA Route 103 stretch is the only
paddling stretch along Flat Shoals River. The average Georgia whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master than those in other states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. The beautiful scenery
of Georgia and the playfulness of the water are reasons enough to come here and paddle. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. This is a pretty decent length section, suitable for an afternoon trip. Great exercise and just hanging out with mother nature are great attractions for lots of people.
