The beautiful scenery of Washington and the water flowing gracefully down Sand Hollow Creek will make you feel great. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master in this state than those in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that many runs in this
    state are not easy. A good workout and a chance to spend some time outdoors are great reasons to come. There are no other stretches to paddle along Sand Hollow Creek than the Highway 26 mile 2 to Columbia River stretch. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground.
This is a bit of a short stretch so it's not like you're gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch. The beauty of the Wenatchee Mountains is a great plus for this river.
