Camping, Kayaking, Swimming! Ready for a Weekend Rendezvous?

Details

Ready for a weekend getaway? This is a great place that can accommodate something for everyone. Kayaking, biking, swimming, hiking, and entertainment while renting a camp site, cabin or RV site. More will be added to this as we get closer so mark you calendars and reserve! Space is limited by SRRR offerings. Do NOT wait to reserve… you will miss out!
Friday: Arrival, set up, we will gather and then 7pm bingo
Saturday: Kayak- 6 mile run with 4 stops at different springs. Total time on the water is 4 hours unless we stay at the springs longer.
Pot luck and gathering for dinner with trivia and karaoke starting at 6:30pm. During the afternoon, they have pigeon races and chicken poop bingo if you want some real fun.
Sunday: Morning hike or another activity and departure
Under photos is the rates for camping. I have stayed in a couple of cabins and camped here. I’m not sure how many tent are allowed on each site. I have stayed several times so if you want my opinion on a site or rental, just ask. Great property to really come out and hang out.

Excited about the paddles! Below is some information.
Sat morning - 2 paddles to decide on.....
Launch at -
Lafayette Blue Springs: 12 mile paddle (about 6 hrs, total longer paddle)
State park so you may need to pay $5 per car for parking
Great run…..First 6 miles has some springs but you will need to look for them - smaller and privately owned.
Then after Hal W Adams bridge (Hwy 51) ramp see below about run…
Hwy 51: 6 Miles (about 4 hours - depends how long you are at each springs)
All springs were on the left side while kayaking
1. Telford Spring - about .25 M from launch
2. Peacock Camp Ground about 2.0 M from Telford- lunch spot and possible hike - up to you
3. Running Springs - 1.5 M from PCG- 2 springs at stop
4. Bathtub Springs - 2 M from Running Spring
5. Convict Springs - .5 M from Bathtub Spring
Boat ramp just a pinch down from convict springs for pullout
Notes: Have an idea of which 1 you want to kayak - I am kayaking Hwy 51 (Start is 10am - all on the water) but if you want a longer paddle, it is easy to plan out. We have multiple kayakers going that may want longer paddles.
Weather: Can’t control but it will be hot!
Hope this gets you excited to paddle!
3pm is Pigeon Races
4:30 is Chicken Poop Bingo
5:30 is Potluck (location is The Pavilion by the pool. A cost is associated to reserve so I am not but it is open for anyone). Has grills, corn hole and horse shoes right there.
