Tube Rentals
Tubing on the Rappahannock River is a fantastic way to enjoy the river and cool off from the hot days of summer.
Your day of tubing begins right at our facility on the river. You will float, swim, paddle, and splash your way to Old Mill Park, one mile downstream, where you will meet your shuttle driver.
You have two trips to choose from:
The one mile trip puts in at our facility any time of the day beginning at 11:00 AM. You may take as many trips as you like, we pick up tubers at Old Mil Park every hour on the half hour starting at 12:30 PM. The last pickup is at 5:30 PM.
Shuttle leave for the two mile trip at 11:00am and 2:00pm (arrive 30 minutes early). Pick ups are at Old Mill Park every hour on the half hour starting at 12:30 PM. The last pickup is at 5:30 PM.
Below is a list of items that will make your trip more enjoyable:
SHOES that will stay on your feet. This is a requirement. Flip-flops will not stay on your feet and will get lost. Old tennis shoes, Teva-type sandals, aqua socks or wet suit booties have proven to be the best.
BATHING SUIT to wear in the river – you WILL get wet on your trip
SUNSCREEN
DRY CLOTHES to put on after the trip
Since you are on a river tube, it is difficult to take anything along with you. You can leave lunches, snacks, and water in your car and get them between trips. This way you will avoid losing them to the river. There are places to eat a bag lunch between trips or after your day of fun. Bring plenty of water to drink as the hot days of summer can dehydrate a person quickly.
***Due to littering and alcohol related problems on the river, we will no longer rent or allow cooler tubes on our tubing trips.
