Canoe & Kayak Rentals At The Park
Starting at the state park and flowing into the Withlacoochee River at Dunnellon, the 5.7 mile long Rainbow River is truly an outstanding waterway. The crystal clear water flowing past moss-draped cypress trees competes for your attention with the river otters and large numbers of wading birds. Launching access to the river is somewhat limited. Many boaters launch at The K.P. Hole County Park, approximately 1-ΒΌ miles downstream from the headwaters. Privately owned boats launched at the headsprings must be carried from the parking area approximately 1,000 feet to the canoe launch. Campers may launch their own canoes or kayaks at the state park campground.
Contact the park for more details.
