1. 1.Apply waterproof sunscreen before you start and bring extra in a waterproof bag,the river offers little shade and you'll be exposed for hours
2. 2.Wear secure water shoes or old sneakers as the river bottom can be rocky at entry and exit points
3. 3.Bring a waterproof phone case or disposable camera to capture memories, but leave valuables in your car
4. 4.Pack plenty of water and snacks in a sealed container or cooler tube,floating works up an appetite and kids get thirsty
5. 5.Arrive early on summer weekends to avoid long waits and get on the river before peak afternoon heat

Visit on weekday mornings during June through August for the best experience with smaller crowds and comfortable water temperatures. Avoid summer holiday weekends when the river can get congested with tubers and wait times increase significantly.

Reservations are recommended during peak summer season. Life jackets are typically available but bringing your own ensures proper fit for your children. Limited food options onsite, so pack snacks and drinks in waterproof containers.

Open seasonally from late spring through early fall, typically May through September depending on weather and water levels. River conditions can vary based on rainfall,call ahead after heavy rain to check if tubing is available. Closed during winter months.

Head to Walk-On's Sports Bistreaux in Denham Springs (about 10 minutes away) for kid-friendly burgers and seafood, or stop at Chevy's on the River for casual dining with river views and a kids menu.
