The scenic beauty of New York and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water make the trip here worthwhile. This section of Irondequoit Creek in Monroe County is 0.5 miles long and it is classified as a class II(III) section by American Whitewater. Lodging is available near the river, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, in this general
area you won't find many other paddling spots. The average New York 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. You can pitch
a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. This section is very short so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times. The Linear Park section is the only paddling section along Irondequoit Creek.
