All About North Georgia River Tubing And Kayaking
Tubing down the river is a super summer fun and a wonderful way to create memories for the entire family
. Floating down the river is also a simple way to reduce stress and enjoy the peace and serenity of nature. So where can you find the best place to take a tubing excursion? The Coosawattee River Tubing Company is the place! Just an hour north of Atlanta, GA and just an hour south of Chattanooga, TN, an entertaining 2-1/2 hour inner tube float down the Coosawattee River is waiting for you and your entourage.
The Coosawattee River Tubing Company furnishes the tube, life vest, and shuttle service to and from the river for an admission price of $15. In free-floating tubing, the tube riders are un-tethered and conveyed by the current of the river. Tubers paddle with their hands to steer, or groups of tubers can rope their tubes together creating a large floating group. Tubes used for free-floating were true inner tubes, but the customized tubes used at The Coosawattee River Tubing Company offer comfort and ease of use. These tubes are donut-shaped to allow the rider to sit comfortably on their back across the top of the tube while sitting into the center.
The Coosawattee River Tubing Company also offers kayak trips by reservation. Each trip lasts 1-1/2 hours and is $25.00 per trip which includes equipment and shuttle to and from the river.
Changing rooms are available, as well as tubing/meal packages and group rates. Although reservations are not mandatory, trips fill-up quickly so availability inquiry and reservation(s) are advised. Please note that children must be at least 5 years of age. A waiver must be signed and submitted prior to the tubing excursion. To save time, please read the rules and regulations and then print & sign the waiver prior to coming on the tubing trip.
The season opens May 1st and runs through October. The tubing and kayaking schedule is as follows:
May 1st - Memorial Day: Friday, Saturday, and Sunday
Memorial Day - Labor Day: seven days a week
Labor Day - October 1st: Friday, Saturday, and Sunday
When you get done with your tubing or kayaking adventure, be sure to visit The General Store at Eagle Mountain for breakfast (starting at 7am) and the summer menu lunch. Also The General Store features "Pickin' on the Porch" which is scheduled for the 2nd and 4th Saturday night of each month (weather permitting), with a variety of local entertainment and music from gospel to blue grass to Old Time Rock 'n' Roll. The General Store is open for your dining and munching convenience. Bring your own lawn chair, pull up your seat next to the bon-fire, and roast some marshmallows while enjoying the entertainment and mountain ambiance!
