Boating
This is the perfect location for boating – whether you are trying to catch a few big ones, skiing down the diversion, zipping around on jet skis, or just taking a relaxing river cruise. We do not provide life jackets, so please remember to bring your own and follow all safety and boating regulations.
Launching Your Own Boat
You can launch your boat at Canal Bank, which is located just three miles from the River House. There is a $5 – $10 dollar fee to launch (the fee varies depending on the day of the week), and you can leave your trailer parked in the lot for the duration of your stay. There may be an overnight fee to leave the trailer, so check in with Canal Bank before launch. Trailer parking is not allowed in the Three Rivers Island parking lot, but you can park in the grassy area on the right side of the lot or alongside the road in the grass along the Three Rivers Island parking fence.
Using the River House Boat Lifts
The River House has two boat lifts for your use, one motorized and one manual. If you are planning on bringing or renting a boat, please send us a message for more detailed operating instructions.
