The put-in location is a short drive from Tahlequah, as you can see on the road map further down. The average Oklahoma whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be easier to run than those in other states, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that many of the sections here are safe for beginners. This is an extremely short stretch so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. No matter
if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this is an area with not too many other places for that. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. Great exercise and just being out on the river for a while are great attractions for lots of people. The wild scenery of the Ozarks is
great. There are no other stretches to paddle along Spring Creek than the Low Water Bridge by Peggs stretch. The scenic beauty of Cherokee County and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water are reasons enough to come here and paddle. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination.
