There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Missouri you might
    find the rivers here a bit more manageable, so if you're not from around here don't forget that a lot of the rivers here are suitable for beginners. The nature scenery of Missouri and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream beats anything. Finley Creek doesn't
