Sightseeing

If you want to rent canoes, Hootentown is only about 10 minutes away. They drop off at Shelvin Rock and float back to Hootentown. The Finley River flows into the James about an hour down from here. However, the Finley isn't great to float as there's shallow places throughout. It's really great for wading and playing in. : )
