Our Story
Description Hours will be changing for 2019. We will be open 8:30-6:00 on Saturdays and Sundays starting Memorial Day weekend. We will be closed when Phil Moore Park is closed for special events. We will also close when water levels or weather conditions make boating unsafe. Make sure you check out the website for hours of operation. For 2019 Drakes Creek Canoe will offer only one trip option, the half day trip from Romanza Johnson Park to Phil Moore Park. Our rentals include a shuttle to the put-in location, paddles, and a flotation device. We can accommodate groups of up to twenty people. If your group is larger than ten people, please call ahead to reserve a slot. Last departure for the Short Trip is 2:30 p.m. How It Works: Check the calendar on our website to make sure the day you want to paddle is not a black out date. (We operate on County Parks and we are closed when Phil Moore Park is closed to the public.). Call or text to reserve your boat and shuttle time. Arrive at the east side of Phil Moore Park about 20 minutes before your scheduled shuttle. We'll meet you, get you matched to your boat and gear, fill out paperwork and take your payment before shuttling you to your selected put-in. The take out for both trips is Phil Moore Park where your vehicle will be waiting. Our Short Trip is $40 for a kayak and $50 for a two-person canoe. A third passenger weighing less than 85 pounds is allowed to ride in a canoe for an extra $10. We recommend this for all of our guests under age 10. The put-in for the Short Trip is located at Romanza Johnson County Park. It is 6 miles upstream from the take out point for a 3-4 hour trip. The last shuttle departure for the Short Trip is at 2:30 p.m. with an approximate put-in time of 3 p.m. The take out point for both trips is located at Phil Moore Park. Parking and shuttle pick up are located on the East side of Highway 231, Scottsville Road. Paddling times are for an average person paddling steadily with occasional breaks. If you would like to stop and enjoy the scenery, picnic or fish, please plan accordingly. Boats must be turned in no later the 6 p.m. Any boat not returned by 6 p.m. will be assessed a late fee of $25 per half hour late. The fee for any lost equipment will be the replacement cost of that item plus $25. We offer a shuttle service to those who already own a canoe or kayak from Phil Moore Park to either of our put-in locations for $10. Legal Disclaimer: All renters must be 18 years of age or accompanied by a parent or guardian. Waiver/release of liability must be signed before anyone will be allowed to rent a boat. Floatation devices must be worn at all times. No illegal drugs or alcoholic beverages of any kind are allowed on any trips, shuttles, or parking areas. We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone we feel may be in violation of our policies. Coolers will be checked for any non-permitted substances. If a rescue team must sent out for you, the renter will agree to pay all charges. All trips and rentals are subject to river conditions. No rentals will be made in case of flood or inclement weather.
