An amazing couples get away!
It was an amazing experience! Webb was very helpful, funny, and informative. We were there for about an hour on the water in a tandem and it was so beautiful!! The admission fee for the 2 of us it was only a little more than 35$ which is a pretty good deal for uninterrupted time on the water in such a beautiful natural state park. It was just us and one other couple so a very private feeling experience. It was definitely best for our couples get away that turned into a proposal towards the end of the day!
