CLASS II(III)     3 miles
 
Take springcreek from jupiter and keep going till it merges with rowlett creek and get out at rowlett rd. This entire stretch of water is best after rainstorms. Some areas have high speed runs and have great rapids. Go prepared you will get wet. Says jared

The average Texas whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be easier to run than those in other states, so better not forget that rivers here are not as hard as elsewhere. The nature scenery of Texas and the playfulness of the water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle.
    There are no other stretches to paddle along Spring Creek River than the Renner Road to Jupiter Road stretch. This is a somewhat short section so it's not like you're gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch. There are nice comfortable hotels here, but you'd better reserve
in advance because these hotels fill up quick. No matter if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking in this general area you'll find lots of paddling spots. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby.
