NRO Assures You a Fun, Exciting and Safe Trip Using the Best Equipment

Quality equipment including Osage canoes, plus rafts.
We recommend 2 people per canoe plus their gear except for special cases where there is an uneven number in a group or small children are joining the excitement.
Each person is equipped with a four to five foot paddle and a life jacket.

Remember that land along both sides of the river is privately owned. Please stay in authorized campground areas only.

Help us keep the river clean and free of litter. Trash bags are available and we do pick up all trash at the end of your trip.

Absolutely no glass in canoes, rafts or kayaks. It's the law!
