The Illinois River is 145 miles long and starts just southwest of Fayetteville, AR. The entire river is beautiful and is a true reflection of the Ozarks.

We offer a 4 mile float on the Upper Illinois River with scenic views, great beaches, and crystal clear water. We shuttle from Gypsy Camp to the Siloam Springs Kayak Park to begin our float. The Kayak Park offers a mild section of Class II Rapids (optional on weekdays). The float then meanders downstream at a gentle pace.

The 12 mile float begins at Chamber Springs Public Access, East of Siloam Springs on HWY 412. This float takes in a beautiful section of the Illinois River. This is a long float taking most groups, ALL DAY! We offer weekend shuttles at 9am only for this float. This float goes through the Siloam Springs Kayak Park at mile 8- two Class II Rapids.

NEW 2024 FLOAT OPTIONS! Starting Memorial Day Weekend, we will be offering two new floats!

We will offer a 6 mile float from Gypsy Camp to Illinois River Yacht Club, just past the new WOKA Whitewater Park. This will be a great float, taking you through the Class II and Class III Rapids at the end of your trip. You will then be shuttled back to Gypsy Camp at select times.

There will also be a new 9 mile trip from Siloam Springs Kayak Park to Illinois River Yacht Club. You will be able to hit BOTH Kayak Parks in one trip! This one will also end with a shuttle back to your vehicle.
