Reservations are strongly recommended, especially on summer weekends. Call us at 601-722-4301 to reserve canoes, kayaks, cabins, or campsites.

Every canoe and kayak rental includes paddles, life vests, and shuttle transportation upstream in our air-conditioned buses. Your float ends right at our facility—no waiting on a pickup.

Yes! The Okatoma is a Class I creek with a few gentle rapids and shoots, and it's one of the most family-friendly floats in Mississippi. Mississippi law requires children 12 and under to wear a life vest at all times, and we recommend everyone wear theirs.

Sunscreen, bug spray, water shoes or old sneakers, towels, dry clothes for the ride home, and plenty of food and water. A dry bag for your phone and keys is a smart addition. Leave valuables in your vehicle.

We also have a store for anything you forgot!

No glass containers and no styrofoam coolers. Please pack out everything you bring. Help us keep the Okatoma beautiful!

Dogs are allowed on the creek, though we recommend leaving pets at home for their comfort and yours.

If you bring your dog, please pick up after them!

We're at 1235 Old Hwy 49, Seminary, MS 39479—about 30 minutes north of Hattiesburg, 90 minutes from Jackson, and around 2 hours from New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

Absolutely. We have four cabins (three overlooking the creek), an RV park with water, sewer, and 30/50-amp hookups, and primitive campgrounds. Bathhouses and showers are open 24 hours.

You can check on water levels here.
