Trukees Canoe and Cabin Rental — Local services in Pocahontas

If I were able it would be ZERO across the board. Our group had 40+ people floating in kayak,tube,canoe, and rafts. Terrible experience, we had to drag our own vessel down a path to launch from what seemed like private property. The owner seemed extremely overwhelmed and unable to keep everything straight. The price was EXTREME for this area especially for having to drag your own kayak down a path. Some had to get to vessels they did not plan for but by that point it was to late to back out. Some also stayed at a camper and the bed was a maybe 3 inch mattress pad and plywood not comfortable at all. The directions to said camper were incorrect and not very well explained as they were from out of state, thank goodness there were locals around who could explain how to get there.

Though the water is too deep and swift to swim or sit right on site, there is a great shaded riverfront patio with plenty of seating to enjoy the view. This is a great place and we look forward to...

We took our 4 daughters for a little weekend trip and this place BLEW OUR MINDS!!! The cabin is soooo gorgeous, with a huge porch and massive cypress tree posts! The girls even allowed mom and dad alone time because the upstairs loft had tons of toys, and a huge television; not to mention the gorgeous yard and trampoline. The views from the cabin are impeccable! The master bathtub with fireplace was a sure hit!! When we were pulling out of the driveway we were already planning our trip to stay again! The entire staff was so sweet and MORE than helpful! Also, the view of the river makes you wanna take the super short walk down there and cool down! We will MOST DEFINITELY be back, for...
