Says Jerry If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Minnesota you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that rivers here are less forgiving.

You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick.
