This stretch of Falls River is 6 miles long and is a class III-IV section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set.

for more. If you're coming from Rexburg it's not a long drive at all to the put-in location, if you're not familiar with the area there's a road map further down the page. There are some good sections to paddle in this river system, the Concrete Bridge to Kirkham Bridge section
