If you'll be staying in a hotel you're in luck, lodging is available very near the river, and if you make reservations in advance     you're all set. This is an extremely short section so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. This is the only paddling stretch along Deep Creek. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way this area has a large number of paddling rivers. The natural beauty of Garrett County and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle.
