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. A good workout and a chance to spend some time outdoors have people coming from far and near. On this section you do get some distance, it's good length for a morning trip. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at
