we recently visited this canoe livery and were very disappointed! Very overgrown, many downed trees and debris in the path--extremely unsafe! Only had old aluminum canoes available at that time and in 1 canoe the welds did not hold and the canoe was functioning as 2 separate parts. Rest of our canoes were very tippy and in poor condition. Any concern or complaint that was raised was met with, ""We don't have control over that..."" Our group had 5-6 overturns and I, personally, saw atleast 15 other people who tipped over due to unsafe conditions. Many cuts and scratches from unavoidable overgrowth and/or debris. Many groups very drunk, adding to the safety concerns. They were moving or blocking hazards on an already dangerous trek. Prolific cursing and obscene behavior. Again livery stated they had no control over this, but this was a non-commercial route in which there were no stores or stops along the river so these people were either drunk to start with or they bought alcohol at the livery area prior to boarding a canoe. Very disappointing! Was so relieved to see the rest of our group as I was seriously afraid for their safety. $128 very poorly spent! AVOID! AVOID!
